I teach at a private school. We currently use Abeka, but it is so far behind newer programs. I purchased Singapore Dimensions to use in small groups as a supplement for my 3rd graders. I may have many questions for you as my year begins. Thank you for this video.

Thank you so much for sharing. It helps a lot!

Thank you so very much!😁😁😁

i want to get primery math 3A

I also got Writing and Rhetoric for 3rd grade. It did not work. That is until this past year, 5 th grade. I honestly feel like it works better starting it a bit later. It really clicked for my daughter at that age. We are up to book three now, and will continue it here and there.

We live about an hour from Mammoth Caves! It's a really neat place, if you ever visit Kentucky you should do a cave tour! We are a few weeks into our homeschool year and are making curriculum changes. Chronos to Curiosity Chronicles for history, and Phonetic Zoo to Spectrum Spelling workbooks for my 4th grader(Phonetic Zoo is going great for my 8th grader) Math Mammoth isn't a good fit for my 8th grader, so we're going to approach it differently and add in Learn Math Fast as needed.

I am binge watching all your videos to get caught up!

Thank you!

Love the seasonal titles!

Screen shot several things thanks for your time and your resources!

Pretty basket!

Love your BOOKCASE!!

I have sent this video and many of your others to my best friend that homeschools. Thanks for what you do!

Thanks for the video. My 6 year old does Duolingo, but would love an additional resource. This will go on my To-Purchase List. Thanks so much!

I’ve been watching a lot of MP podcast videos on YT. It’s good to see this showcased on your channel. I have Spelling You See and All About Spelling that my daughter will start August 2024. Would love to hear your thoughts on any comparison. And maybe you already have a video comparison, not sure.

Love this! Thanks for the resource. I started a Science subscription for their video portion. Appreciate you!

Bought these from Amazon thanks for your resource love!

I bought these from Half Price Books, but I bought them because of your reference here. Thanks for your resources.

I screen shot this resource thanks for sharing!

I love the decision to move! Love the chickens! Love this adventure for you & your family! Maybe a new “branch” of your channel being homemaking/homesteading/farming content? Just a thought! Love all your stuff!

I bought this lesson planner because of this video! She should partner with you because YOUR video made me buy her planner!

Please never stop making videos. I feel like people don’t know how valuable your content actually is. I appreciate the time and effort and resources in each and every video. Thank you so much for what you do!

Yes please 😊

Yes yes yes!! Pretty please 🎉

GREAT idea!! I will start doing this, like right now!

Will you be doing a "setting up the new planner" video? I'd love to see how you end up using this version! ❤

Please do a video!! This is such a great idea. Bonus points if you can get up before August 5 so I have time to get familiar with it before we start our fall semester😅

Thanks so much for this!! 😊

Thank you so much for this! It really helped me out - I might use this for my daughter this coming school year

Whsys the name of the program?

Thank you for sharing where you bought your planner

Thank you SO much for these videos, this is EXACTLY what I’ve even looking for. I see from the comments you went with Primary, then back to Dimensions- I’m going to look for a video on how you make that work. We’ve been using Primary since the beginning (just finishing up 1B now), and we even have to skip some problems with it as my rising 2nd grader has ADHD and gets “bored” easily with the Mental Math and repetition, so I think we’d have to skip WAY too much to make Dimensions work for us. Time to look for Primary 2A…

19:30 this part is hard to explain the concept to kid?

Have you checked out Core Knowledge History? I love their student readers. My kids are a bit younger so I can only speak to the K-2nd grade units, but definitely worth checking out!

This is how I was game planning history this year but felt like I was just “winging it” with the topics and spent entirely too much time googling when certain time periods were 😅…buying the e-version of the resource from Common Sense press now! It’s exactly what I need! Thanks for sharing!

I'm using some of Little School of Smith's units for the extra activities as well this year.

Evan Moor has a whole history pockets resource just on the civil war. It's really good.

Wow!! Such a great video on your thought process. Wish I had a homeschool mom friend near me that had the same thought process as I do. Thanks for your videos.

The Well Trained Mind was the first homeschool book I ever read and I turn to that resource time and time again!❤

Love hearing about your process and seeing how you make use of that planning notebook!

Your planner and notebook are beautiful. I added those to my wishlist.

Which did you end up using and preferring? We currently have both full sets of KA/KB dimensions and primary 2022, and I just don’t know where to go for 1! Dimensions feels like a lot of wordiness without a lot of direction on how to teach. But primary 2022 feels gimmicky to me. Considering going to US Edition!

I got a couple gems from this video. I want to look at the book recommendations on ambleside (I’ve never visited that website before) and I appreciated your advice about not worrying about doing too much before fourth grade. My son is about to enter 1st grade and we also follow classical education, mostly, and I want to be careful not to put too much in our basket and avoid pressure and burnout. Thanks for the video!

Does your daughter write down the vocab words & definitions? If so, where?

Checking in to see how level 1 progressed & if your daughter is still liking it ok. :)

Both!

I like how you said that on Thursday, you plan the first three days of the week. On what day do you plan the rest of your week?
