I’m Christina, a homeschooling mom of 5 kids (ages 1, 2, 5, 10, & 13). I love the Charlotte Mason homeschooling approach, and many others, but I’d say I’m more of an eclectic homeschooler-mixing the different aspects of homeschool styles that I love-living books, literature-based learning, Montessori, and so much more!

Hi! I’m so happy I just found your channel! I’m in NY (Bronx) and I am really looking into homeschooling. Do you use the good and beautiful whole curriculum or you pick a choose other curriculums? I have a 2nd & 3rd grader. Can I also ask you do you have your kids in extra curricular activities so they have the social aspect? Or do you participate in a cooperative? I’m just curious. Thank you again for your video I’m going to check out more of your channel!

I would never guess from watching your videos that you live in a high regulated state that just shows that you can homeschool and have the freedom to do whatever you have to do when you homeschool .. to make it work.. this was such an amazing video Christina you've given so much great information for moms and have encouraged so many by sharing your experience and especially because it's your second year homeschooling... it just goes to show that you do have the freedom to choose even in a high regulated state .. I learned so much from even researching about Canadian laws... the province that comes to mind that is similar to New York is Quebec here in Canada. Great video mama ❤

Hi! I, new to your show and I just love your love for Jesus! I too am in upstate NY, close to oneonta actually. Something I’ve found to be more difficult than the homeschool regulations here is finding others who are also homeschooling and getting together. There are tons of groups, and something I’ve noticed is that they break before they can get going into something great for the kiddos. My son is in elementary and I wish I could connect with moms as this job is so with it, but also so lonely if you don’t connect enough.

Do you have a video addressing unenrollment letters from public school and can that be and unenrollment/letter of intent since it is the end of a school year? Or do I not have to worry about the letter of intent just yet? That is where I am at in my process. I have homeschooled before many years ago (my oldest son from birth-3rd grade) he is actually graduating this year from public school. I have other kids who will be staying in public but because my kindergartener is having issues with aggression (possible high functioning Autism/ADHD) I feel it is no longer safe for him to be there. He truly wants to hone school and asks daily if it’s a school day.
@RootedHomeLife
@RootedHomeLife Год назад
You might as well just send in the letter of intent. Otherwise you can do it anytime before 2 weeks of missed school. So essentially you could pull him tomorrow and then you have two weeks to submit a letter of intent.

So interesting how different it is everywhere. In New Zealand we send off an exemption letter and once that's sorted and approved ( and it's rare that it isn't, they might just want more information) - then we are free to do what we like. No mandated subjects, no regulations, testing etc.

We are moving country and we are looking at our next country’s homeschooling law’s. I love the idea of putting subject to change on the documents. We included extra hours that aren’t sitting down learning. We live in a free country for homeschooling but I’m not sure what the next location will be like in the homeschool laws will be and it’s awesome that you still have freedom in a highly legated states. We also live a lifestyle of learning even though we normally travel a lot.

THANK YOUUUUUUU. We are going to try a private school next year because we both work full time out of the house but I’ve been thinking of homeschooling my gifted child for years. I now feel we can do a homeschool trial run over the summer? What do you think? She just doesn’t fit into a public school box. I recently found out that NY is so regulated & got scared & said oh there’s no way! But really it doesn’t sound that bad! I figure I can do her enrichment classes as part of my IHIP?? They are now after school & she is already exhausted by the time she gets to them you know? They include “forest school” (for science), guitar lessons, a gifted school writing intensive, & Spanish school. She’s been doing all of these since she was 2 & now is stuck in kindergarten, slowing herself down to fit in & coloring all day. 🙄 she is SO much more than that! So again, thank you for the mental rest & peace on this topic. 😊
@RootedHomeLife
@RootedHomeLife 2 года назад
Absolutely you can try it in the summer-and I think you will love how it allows you to customize your child’s education-which you’re already doing, but you can cut out the extra stuff that might just be too much “desk-time”

New subscriber here! I just watched your homeschooling on a budget video & this one-I’m a fellow NY homeschooler. How do you set up your ihip when using unit studies & other resources? We’re starting our fifth homeschool year (fourth year reporting-first year was Kindergarten), and we’ve always used a box curriculum so my ihips have been really simple as I’ve just listed out our textbooks. This is my first year having multiple grades (I have two fourth graders & a kindergartner), so I’m interested in doing more family style but I don’t know how to change my ihip to reflect that. Also, do you make your ihip more generic in order to utilize the free resources/budget friendly options? Sorry for all the questions, but I love the idea of keeping our homeschool budget down, especially because now that my younger children are getting closer to school age, our homeschool expenses are getting higher.
@RootedHomeLife
@RootedHomeLife 3 года назад
I honestly just list “Gather Round Homeschool Curriculum” or whatever the “brand” is and then on my quarterly reports I list the topics we covered! I also don’t list every little resource or unit study, just the main ones for the IHIP and then just the topics for the quarterly. Hope this helps!!

I definitely think you can make this work-it may even be better in regard to not having to be “on” socially all day, and for you to be able to help him navigate it!

Hey Veronica! What grade are your children? I actually don’t give numeric grades until high school in order to put them on the transcript, but I know some people do prefer to give grades. If you do like to give grades think about 100 being perfect and then take points off from there-if things are wrong, not complete, etc-but I prefer no grades at the younger ages, because I expect their best work so I will just ask them to redo certain things until I think it’s their best work. Or if something is technically wrong we go over it together and they change it. I hope this helps!

Hi, I live in NY and I'm a new homeschooling mom. My son is 5. He was suppose to start kindergarten but I chose to keep him home. Reporting is required starting at the age of 6 right? Also is kindergarten a required grade to compete. I feel like that question isn't clearly answered an I want to know if I'm doing everything right. Thank you!

School is not compulsory until 1st grade so technically no! I recommend a gentle approach-for example, I used Gather Round Honeschool Ready to Read program which is everything you need and my daughter loved it!

Hi Christina! First of all thanks for this video. I have a 4 year old and entering Kindergarten I am considering not sending my child to school as it is still not safe for children during this time of Covid19. I’m also just diagnosed with Breast Cancer and can not take a risk to sent my son to school during chemotherapy treatment, but I will like my son to do some kind of learning while in home, I also live in NYC and I am considering homeschooling with him, I really don’t know if I can do it but I will try my best. Can you sent me any curriculum for kindergarten? Or maybe guide me more with this? I really need some help. Thank you! 🙏

You got this mama! I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through, I will be praying for you. I’d recommend Gather Round Honeschool Ready to Read program-that is all you need unless you want to do more!

@@RootedHomeLife Thank you for answering me so quickly and thank you very much for your prayers. The first thing I should do is a letter of intent? then should I wait for an answer? Do I need to report every quarterly in Kindergarten? I’m so lost I read that kids under 6 no need to do it, and some people said yes we need to report 🤔 So, what are the right steps? Thank you Christina!
