The thought actually crossed my mind, my kids have never had it before, so its worth a try. Thank you

@@refilwe-matshivha you can flavour it to your tasting for example you can cinnamon or perhaps a flavoured essence or mix it with other fruits you enjoyed

Thank you Noma, i'm glad you enjoy the content. Are you a homemaker yourself? Oh that sounds like a very nice combination I will definitely do that.

Yes I am a homemaker and homeschooling mom of 3 (grade5, grade 1 and new born) we are based in Roodepoort...

To want to be a homemaker is a beautiful thing and a very worthy cause no wonder it is so attacked. It is very sad how other women criticise woman who do choose that path but i've learnt that most are rather envious that you can actually be a keeper at home. whilst they don't have a choice but to work in corporate.

Irene homes and Ons winkel in Lyttelton😄

It really is and I love how can you find unique pieces at very reasonable prices

For dairy I go to Irene farm, fruits and veg I go to Tshwane market. Thank you Kira will have a look at Valley view farm.

You are welcome, I am glad I could assist.

So wonderful to know that you're also a homeschooling mom in SA. What is you're current pain point on your journey and your biggest win?

Hi Tebogo, glad I could be of help. To God be all the glory. I wouldn't advise creating a classroom setup, it is really not necessary. I do advice that you create an environment in your home that inspires learning for example a bookshelf in the living room or put books your daughter can flip through on the coffee table, an art station maybe, puzzles and a lot of play, playing is how kids learn. If you have a printer or don't mind diy you can homeschool grade 1 for free thats my plan for my daughter who will be in grade 2 next year. I can create a video to show my process if you are interested.

@@refilwe-matshivha 🙏 yes please create another video 🙏🙏🙏 and yes i have a printer and wi-fi and i'm really wanting free homeschooling it will really relieve me of the burden of affordability and being unemployed thank you cc ❤ god bless you and may he bless this channel really appreciated a lot.🙏🙏

@@tebogomaebela1793 Thank you, I will schedule the video for the month of July.

Thank you.

Can you please clarify your question, don't quite understand

@@refilwe-matshivha my doubt is consignment account

?

From Westpack

Hi Thandeka, from westpack.

It's a pleasure. I bought it second hand on facebook, from a group called homeschool exchange.

@@refilwe-matshivhathank you so much for your response. I'm so grateful. Are you still enjoying the impaq curriculum?

@@leannegovender4110 I've tweaked it a bit to work for my daughter but I will not use it next year.

@@refilwe-matshivha please could you share why you won't use it next year? I've just registered my grade 1 with impaq, Jesus I hope I haven't made a mistake.... Stressed mum

@@leannegovender4110 no don't stress i'm mainly not going to use it because I want to save money by creating my own curriculum. My kids and I prefer an eclectic approach over a boxed curriculum. Use it and see whether it will work fro you.

I'm glad I could be of help sis. thank you for the encouragement.

You welcome.

I'm glad I could be a resource, all the best.

Don't worry, they don't just reject applications, they would give you an opportunity to correct whatever they need you to, and as far as I know, you don't need to register until the child is in grade 1, I recently registered my daughter.

Thank you Rene. I have been seeing the caddy at Pep lately, I hope you find it. May your time in the word yield a great harvest of blessing in your life and your family.

Thank you sis. To God be all the glory. A debt free life is such a huge blessing.

Give it a try a mommy, it will be well worth it. 5:15 for a young boy is a stretch.

Thank you

Thank you. To god be all the glory.

I'd also love to hear more on the process of registering with gov department of education and what they legally require for South Africa homeschooling if you have time to share ❤

I'm glad I could help. thank you for the feedback its really encouraging.

It takes time sis, I despised being a homemaker in the earlier years because my mind was not renewed. Ever since my perspective changed I highly esteem my role. Thank you for the encouraging feedback.

Thank you Megan for your encouraging feedback

Hey Mbali, congratulations on your bold step, I know it's quite intimidating as it's new territory but I can be a resource for you. Was actually brainstorming video ideas to make ,to help new homeschooling mom like yourself here on youtube. Drop me an email: [email protected] on your specific questions and I will be glad to give some advice.

@@refilwe-matshivha will do thank you

Hi, my husband and I were convicted by the Lord to homeschool our children so we could teach them our values. That is why we chose to homeschool. We were part of a co-op last year but i didn't continue with it this year because it was overwhelming for me to go every Wednesday with my toddler but I would love to go back next year cause he will be 4 and able to participate in the activities. There are a number of homeschool groups to join some just for sports or socialising and some include academics like Classical conversation. Which province will you be moving to in South Africa?

Hi, I requested them to call and apply telephonically its easier and faster. after the phone call my daughter was registered and i waited a day for the quote to be able to make payment. After payment it took a day and everything was done. hope i've answered your question.

It"s quite a handy tool to have. It helps a lot with understanding words that are not common in our modern times. Happy bible study

Really do😃

I'm glad I could be a resource to you. Let me know what other homeschooling questions or content you would like to see, I have been homeschooling now for 4 years and intend to homeschool all 4 of my kids till matric God willing😄

[email protected]. Looking forward to hearing from you

Hi Refilwe, on man I jst bumped into your vid. Jst joined the homeschooling program and i need knowledge on a few things pls kindly assist

@@fifimothobi1050 I'm happy to assist, you can email me [email protected]

If he turns 6 before June they will allow him but if it's between July-Dec then they will suggest he does grade R first. Remember with homeschooling you do have the flexibility of moving at your child's phase. If your boy is highly competent with grade r work move him to grade 1.

Thank you, will have a look at the sticky notes, appreciate you letting me know about them.

It's great quality...

Thank you. Pursue God in every way you can, cheering you on. He is worthy of our devotion!

Thank you sis, really appreciate it

Thank you, so encouraging to know that theres more of us, choosing this path.

I'm so encouraged by your video, I'm also homesching a grade 5 and grade 1. Don't stop sharing your journey.

@@nomadnxumalo7565 Thank you, will do

I got it locally from Pephome, I'm based in Gauteng South Africa. It is also available on Amazon and Takealot- it's called a diaper caddy

Thank you Yvonne. A blessed and prosperous 2024 to you too.

happy homeschooling, let me know what other content you would like to see that is centred around homeschooling.

@@refilwe-matshivha Thank you. I missed a webinar for foundation phase homeschoolers and wanted to ask about assessments and portfolio tasks. I have seen that some appear in the facilitator guide. I have also been told that we capture term marks on the online learner portal - there are criteria tables in the assessment files and the likes, but I always feel like there is something I am missing. I would really appreciate it if you did a series on that: formal assessments per term and capturing on the portal, as well as more on portfolio tasks. Hope I'm making sense. Thanks in advance🙂
