Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! every other video I watched was absolutely ridiculous! Like they only made it for content profit. But THIS was actually helpful!! Thank you so much!
I have a daughter that is 12 she hasn't been in school we're homeless im scared they take her away from me. I don't have family to support me i was molested and abused at the age of 9 if been in a deep depression .I just want my daughter to know what it feels like to be a kid 😢😢😢 I need some help and guidance 🙏
My 6 year old knows how to read well, she started reading when she was 5 and only used hooked on Phonics which I think was aggregated foundation. We didn’t use it religiously because either didn’t want to push her so we used it maybe once/twice a week and she still learned!! Highly recommend ot
Thank you for the reassurance. I was becoming overwhelmed with all the programs out there. This will be our first year of homeschooling with our three boys.
This was very helpful. I’m only 21 but I grew up being bullied in both public school and non-public school as a kid growing up and all my life, I’ve wanted homeschooling even in high school which I only graduated when I was 19. Not that long ago and anyway, so I’ve wanted to do homeschooling for my children in the future just to prevent all of that from happening to my kids and I’m in California so this was really helpful. I think I might do the private homeschooling option over the tutor or the other option just because I am capable of teaching. I used to teach some of the special ed kids in my classes that couldn’t understand their schoolwork and after each class, I would be like a little teacher. I also have wanted to be a stay-at-home dad that homeschools my kids because I never got the opportunity to be homeschooled when I was a kid and a teenager and I hated it. So this was really helpful. Thank you again. I don’t have any children right now, but I plan to in four years when I’m 25 because by that point I can legally start fostering and adopting at that age which is what I want to do on top of having biological kids of my own. Three biological and three adopted sound good to me. I honestly have the patience and capacity for taking care of kids and same goes for homeschooling. I just know I don’t want my kids going to school with other children from other families and risk getting discriminated against and bullied and attacked. And also the thing with school shootings nowadays have me even more scared. Like I do not want my kids going to public school or private school because I’m not religious and I’m not teaching my kids that stuff and non-public school wasn’t really helpful for me in high school so I’m just not taking the chance with my own kids. I also was adopted so that’s how I know I want to have adopted kids and biological ones. I had siblings who were my adopted parents biological children however I always wanted an adopted sibling who understood what I went through as a kid, I never got that opportunity and so I plan to do that for my kids. Anyway thank you again! This was helpful! ❤
Thank you for this video. My 1st grade daughter is behind grade level in reading and I really want to help her this summer figure it all out. I wanted to find a program that will cover it all as I’m not sure where to start her. I feel so bad that I didn’t start sooner. I don’t know why I assumed the school/teachers were going to help her. It is my job now.
I’m looking into Acellus Academy and doing the PSA and using them as the curriculum…. I’m in California as well moved from LA to Riverside County. Anyway what did you end up deciding?
I have a question what if we want to homeschool our niece or nephew into our home can we do that or do we need a teachers degree in order to homeschool a family members child
I would suggest you go and file it to cover yourself just in case… it’s simple and takes less than 15 mins. I did it this year with my two. If you are filing the PSA in California for the first time, you can do it anytime during that first year. (I know this because I pulled mine out of public earlier this year) After that, it has to be filled out for each subsequent year thereafter between October 1-15th. Hope this helps!
I ended up doing this for my Kindergartener to start. Scholastic workbook and some dollar tree flashcards and supplies. I still use it but have added Easy Peasy math and learn to read program which are free ❤ Workbooks and library books are definitely a great starting point or even a great way to have work samples of subjects.I plan to use Evan Moor spell and write until middle school to meet my states Grammar and spelling requirements. I prefer to focus on reading and handwriting in younger years.
Thank you. Im working full-time and just started homeschooling a Kindergartener. We also have a toddler and want another baby 😅. Independent work and utilizing Weekends sounds like a plan!
Thank you! I've been stressing about homeschooling my soon to be 5 year old and worried that I wouldn't cover enough material. I had purchased allinone Curriculum because it's cheap and has all subjects but i quickly figured out that i hate prining off everything and having to organize the papers 😂 I recently checked out workbooks instead and I LOVE it! More importantly my daughter loves them. The colors, layout and ease of tracking progress. I have her do ABCMOUSE learning path as a supplement and we are focusing on hooked on phonics for our language arts but everything else is workbooks! Thank you also for being representation for African American homeschool moms. Not many of us out here 😂
That's very simple! For the past couple of years, my anxiety over homeschooling has nearly left me mentally paralyzed on a daily basis. I've been doing this since my kids were toddlers, so it's not new, but the pressure and worry that my kids' home education won't "hold water" in the real world is so terrifying. Not knowing what they're supposed to know at certain "grades" really gets in the way, and then knowing my son probably won't meet the expectations because of his mild learning issues...😖😮💨 it's stressful. Im burned out, but im going to keep pushing. I've got to overcome this homeschool hump!
This is amazing ! Very Encouraging. I have no idea why ppl don't know more about your channel. You're doing an amazing job !! Thanks so much for this information.
Doing Homeschool you don’t get overwhelmed? Or do you have any help from someone besides your husband? Maybe, your mom, mother in law… for those moments that you are overwhelmed and too stressful??
Loved this video. My daughter is behind and I wasn't sure how to help her. Now I have an idea and I know what to expect and what she should be learning according to her age. Thank you for this video.
This is exactly what I'm doing with my kindergartener! and exactly how I started was checking the standards for our state to figure out what goals / topics to set and pick for the year! thank you for the encouragement that this is an okay way to homeschool!
I used to get those “what your blank grader should know” from the library and get materials based on that. 8 years later my 12 year old is on track to graduate by 16 yrs old never had a curriculum in her life lol
HOP was great for my 7yr old nephew who has learning disabilities (ADHD). Unfortunately his parents had not worked with him on the basics (counting/alphabets) and there were a lot of things missing academically that his school ignored but continued to pass him on to the next grade. Within 2 months w/ HOP, he went from not knowing all of his alphabets to not only recognizing all of them but reading up to 14 books. It really is a great system.
