Hi! I just came across your channel! I’m from Alberta so it’s super nice to see Canadian homeschool KZfaqrs! 😊 Thanks for the Canadian content ideas. I used Math-U-See for math for 4 years and I really appreciated the Canadian edition they have. This year we’re switching to Masterbooks math and I’m really thinking about US vs Canadian money and measurements and temperature… but I do have copies of the “Canadian curriculum” books so maybe we’ll supplement with that at bit… Favourite homeschool company… We use My Father’s World for our core curriculum. It’ll be our third year and I’m super loving it. Soooo biblical and the geography and history we’ve done so far has been so eye opening. We do use Story of the World as part of that so that’s been good too. I’ve also been using IEW for writing and grammar. I agree 100% that the Fix It! Grammar was just as much for me as for them! I was in French immersion too so I feel like I knew none of the grammar terminology! Lol! (My kids will be gr 7,5,3 and SrK) Thanks again for this video! 😊👍

Hi mama! ❤️ so happy that you found my channel! I love connecting with other Canadian moms! I've never been to Alberta but would love to visit... it looks so beautiful!

I hope you have an amazing new year!

Love seeing all the great additions to your homeschool! Figuring out the "official" grade for kids is definitely something confusing--I have one with a birthday in spring and one with a late fall birthday, so I think that even though they are a year and a half apart in age, they will end up being two grades apart "officially"--which I'm totally fine with, it leaves more time for all the preschool fun with my tiny guy. ;) I'm totally okay with doing some kinder-level stuff during pre-K, though.

She didn’t enjoy their LA so right now I’m piecing together, but I’d prefer an all in 1 curriculum. We’ll be trying IEW for this upcoming year 🤞🏻 and praying she likes it!

It varies by state when you child can start school based on their birthday. Overall in the US it's Pre-Kindergarten and then kindergarten. In NY as long as your child turns 4 before December 31st they can start pre-k. For some states the child has to turn 4 before the school year starts which is August or September.

Thanks for sharing! If I had to pick ONE curriculum...right now it would be logic of English foundations. So many other great options though:) Saskatchewan is different from Ontario in that we don't have jr kindergarten. I remember when I nannied in ON that the 4 year old went to JK, but it's not a thing here. And I totally agree about the currency in math curriculums! We have been using math mammoth international money chapters, even though we don't use MM as our regular curriculum. They just have several international options for currency which is nice. 👌🏽 Math has been hardest for me to settle on, so I can understand sampling a few options 😅😅 I hope you love your choices!

4 year olds are typically what we call Pre-K or some places call it K4. 5 year olds go to Kindergarten, which is the first official “grade.” Even then, in most states kindergarten isn’t required, but I literally don’t know anyone who hasn’t sent their kid to kindergarten.

Hi! New to your channel and fellow Canadian! I was wondering what did you use for spelling in the first grade? I used Abeka when my 19,21,and 25 year olds were in grade school (I dint homeschool high school). This time around...I’m much more eclectic. I found the good and the beautiful from my sister in law and I absolutely LOVE it. Now, I’m only 3 weeks in. Long story, but I pulled my son from school at the end of April. He now is thriving at home!!!!!! Also any 🇨🇦money books for grade 1 that you could suggest would be amazing. Thanks Carla....

@lifewithginab 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Carla!!! I am so glad you are here!! 🇨🇦 ❤️ and so glad that you are starting to homeschool your son! I hope you enjoy it! So for the 1st grade I actually just used the good and beautiful spelling but after using it I wanted to try something else because the way they do spelling is a bit challenging for my son when he was in the 1st grade. I tried Evan-Mor and my son didn't like it too much. And we tried a couple of others and finally found 180 days of spelling this year... if I knew about 180 days of spelling when my son was in the 1st grade I would probably have used it. It does have the more traditional approach though, so that's something to consider. I am going to link some books I used for Canadian math for my son in a seperate comment and also leave you how we do a language arts lesson link where I show a bit of inside of the 180 days of spelling work book. It's for the 2nd grade but you can kind of see inside of it and get an idea. If you are looking into a more non traditional approach spelling you see is also a great option! Have you tried the spelling from the good and the beautiful... did you not like it?

@@lifewithginab so, my son has had 0 yes I mean ZERO grade 1 schooling this year. The school would not listen to us or the 3 specialist that we provided. Our son suffered great neglect and abuse the first 4.5 years of his life. Because of this he has be formally diagnosed with childhood PTSD and he also has extreme ADHD. So after the last straw broke, where my son came home with a nail gauge in his leg and he telling me he was picked up by his legs and dragged....I pulled him. Since he has had no grade 1 schooling, as all they did in his 45-120 min class was play...I’m NOT kidding...I put him in the K program for the good and the beautiful. I do plan to homeschool him through the summer in hopes of getting him where his “grade” level should be. He is the smartest kids I know. We started math 2 weeks ago too and he is almost on chapter 8. Language he does 2-3 lessons a day and retains it all. I will slow him down if he doesn’t continue to remember what he has learned...I just knew when I tested him, he wasn’t placing in Level 1. He could barely read. He was at a JK reading level. Long story short...told ya, it is complicated lol...he is on K now and hoping by January he’ll be on level 1. I just have to decide if I continue to use the “older” version of the downloads or use the newer ones. I did go ahead and purchase all their “old” level readers for 1 and 2. So much going on and so much to ponder lol....but like I said he is thriving now and our relationship is too!!!!
