hi

Thank you! This was SO helpful! I currently have a 2nd and 4th grader 🍎

😊

I so wish i could use homeschool planet. I pay for it and im about to cancel. The customer service is non existant. They refuse to help me other than saying "we have videos" so im canceling. It is so confusing to me.

What's your language arts and social studies? For 6th grade?

😂😂😂

Could you link the video on how to get the target discount?

Could you link the video on how to get the target discount?

What do you think for curriculum for a 4 years old ?

You had to create a username and password for your son, who's learning how to write? How old is someone typically before he can understand how to invent a good password?

What are the book dividers on top of the carts? Where do you get those?

So is everything you need to know to explain concepts in language arts in the same year or may it draw from units in the past years? I am worried I chose the wrong level for my daughter for this reason. I don't want to be pulling from other resources I want to use it as our only language arts. Is this not possible starting at 7-9? Would it be going back to 6-8?

Did you get the teacher guide?

I purchased handwriting without tears through 3rd grade, and then found a d'nealian book at goodwill and purchased it on a whim. 100% better than hwt. Excited to see that if I purchase new it's even better! Thanks for sharing.

Well this makes me more excited for what I bought

This looks cute! Love that it’s in color! ❤

D’Nealian is my absolute favorite. It leads to simple cursive instead of frilly and complicated. It’s what we used to use in my old school district when I was teaching.

I didn’t know they have an online component now. Thats so cool! We have used this program since it was the old company, Scott Foresman. Savvas took it over a couple years ago and it’s a lot cuter now. ❤

girl I’ve been looking for a review of this for months. I keep hearing everyone use it but I never knew why or what it looks like inside, thank your for this!

Awesome I need to try those scissors they say they work for lefty’s too! Agree with crayola & Elmer’s & dry erase markers! Girl, Ticonderoga is my all time favorite I love the different colors they come in too especially for me the teacher! 😂 I only use Ticonderoga! I will have to try your sharpie suggestion but I still prefer pens with lids bc I’m always nervous they will leak in my purse or something so I usually stick with felt tips name brand! Costco has them on sale right now! But that Amazon price for my kids is unbeatable (I never want to share mine 😂)

Have you ever tried the hack where you duct tape the marker caps together?

Great haul ! 💕 Thanks for sharing your tips with buying certain items and brands 👍🏼😊

We have used the Getty Dubay program which teaches italic to italic cursive. Level B or C is good for 1st grade.

Kumon has some cut and paste books that are straightforward. Not as fun as crafting but maybe good for busy days.

Let me tell u, my husband had to teach me all about finances 😂....

Will start homeschooling my son going into 5th for the first time. Any thoughts on Alveary Curriculum???

When you buy markers do get each child their pack or just one to share? I am homeschooling 3 this year 4, 6, and 8 😊

🎉🎉🎉

Glad to hear your fist week went well! For your Homeschool Planet video, I would like to know how to add Moving Beyond the Page to it. I wanted to do the free trial but couldn't find the publisher of the curriculum on the list.🤷‍♀️ It'll be our first year with Moving Beyond the Page (thanks to you 😊) and honesty I need all the help I can get right now.😅 Thanks again for your videos!

did you order these in packets?

This was so helpful!

Glad you all had a great week!❤

Yay for a good first week!! Sounds like you found your groove!

Glad you had a good first week! We started a 5 day school week for this first term. I figured as we are in the throws of teaching our kindergartener to read we should expose her to it as many days as possible until she gets a handle on it. You’re absolutely right you can finish school in a 3 day school week! Our second and third term will likely be 3 days. Happy homeschooling!

Do you have any experience with moving beyond the page 4-5? My boys are 4 and 5 1/2. It would be nice to combine them with content and then go at their own pace with skill subjects.

We got a dry erase handwriting book so my daughter could practice over and over all the letters.

So happy your first week went so great! 🎉 You go momma! All that prep and planning really does pay off! 😅 You have me so excited to start our new school year. 🤓 we’re going back to MBTP. Ages 11-13, 7-9, and 4-5. 🤩 We start in 1 month!

I have used the Zaner-Bloser method for teaching cursive for almost three decades as a public school educator and now as a private tutor. It is highly effective and will have a major impact on every aspect of student literacy development, especially when coupled with the Zaner-Bloser Spelling Connections.

Organizing and reorganizing frustration is real! 😂

Careers and Trades was a fun and interesting unit. We did it for high school credit and for an early elementary student.

Aww you’re such a good mom! I enjoy watching these videos even if my day looks a little different, I admire those who can get their kids engaged in extra activities, we’re going through lots of transitions, I have a 3, 5 and 10 year old so some days we just stick to the bare necessities!! Lol 😆 you encouraged me to keep trying though!

I love all the first day of school fun!!

Looks like a great first day! Love the theme, you are so creative!

Math with Confidence is so good! I feel like it's super under rated. Super hands on and fun for kids. I've used grade kinder through 3rd. It's a solid program for math.

What color are you wearing of the SHEGLAM lipstick?
