Summer is in full swing, and today I'm sharing our summer homeschool plans and end of school year wrap up. Year round homeschooling is what works best for us, so a lot of our summer homeschool curriculum is what we've been using and loving throughout the school year. We've definitely made some curriculum updates though, which I fill you in on in this video. For the most part, we'll be homeschooling through the summer, but we'll definitely have a lighter homeschool summer routine for the month of July before kicking off our new school year in August.
Does homeschooling year round work for your family, or do you prefer to take a longer summer break? Do you have special homeschool curriculum for summer? I love having a year round homeschool and spreading breaks throughout our year, but I'd love to hear what works for your family in the comments!

Queen Language Lessons is great too. My oldest graduated and went on to college and career with it.

@courtneysimon444 Год назад

Hi! Do you feel like “Spelling You See” was helpful at all? I planned on starting this with my daughter this year, but I am not sure that it’s really necessary…

@TheHomeschoolConvert Год назад

We will not continue using it. It didn’t really end up working well for my daughter.

@WhimsicalFamilyLife 2 года назад

I look forward to hearing what you think of Zookeeper

I’ll be sure to share our thoughts after we’ve used it for a while!

I love this video! Are you planning to use the language lessons (redone from the serl books) along with the gentle grammar? I have the original serl books and gentle grammar and I’m unsure if there is lots of overlap or if they compliment each other well. Also we just bought a bundle that had several simple studies and they look amazing!! It’s taking lots of self control to not just jump into them right now. Praying for your surgery! ❤

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

Thank you for the prayers! There is some overlap, but I think they complement each other well. You could just choose one or the other though. My current plan is to keep them both in a loop and do them on different days next school year. If I find it becomes too redundant, I can always pull one out.

@danahall1282 2 года назад

Where did you get your Language Lessons for Today?

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

I ordered it secondhand…I think from eBay. Christianbook carries them though: www.christianbook.com/apps/easyfind?Ntk=keywords&Ntt=Language%20lessoms%20for%20today

@captain7471 2 года назад

New here and really enjoy your videos! One thing thought, can you not shout at the start of your videos? It’s very startling

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

I didn’t realize I was shouting. 🙈 Guess I’m just enthusiastic? 😅 Note taken though, haha.

@captain7471 2 года назад

Your voice level goes up and down the whole video. That’s okay, if you didn’t know, you couldn’t have helped it. It woke up my 11 week old is the only reason I caught it. I’m very enthusiastic about homeschooling too so I get it! 😁

@jerilyn-ourhomeschooltable 2 года назад

We took a full week off of everything, then we restarted with Morning Time (which for us is just doing our Sonlight HBL C) and then my daughter does 2 Math pages a week and 2 writing prompts for the week. We call that Summer school. 😊 We’ll start adding more subjects in late August. 🥰

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

Sounds like a great plan!

@HomeSweetHomeschoolLife 2 года назад

We are using Simple Studies for the first time this year. We are starting with Courage.

We used Courage last fall!

@homeschoolingthroughhighschool 2 года назад

Hi Piper! Thanks for hanging out. Does Piper participate in year round homeschooling also? 😉 We've been homeschooling year round as well. I posted a video about it but one year we decided to NOT school in the summer and let me tell you, it was not the right choice. You've got some great choices here. Thanks for sharing.

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

Haha!! Piper can usually be found sitting at our feet while we homeschool! When we’ve had breaks longer than I intended, it always feels so hard to recover. Homeschooling year round just makes the most sense for us, personally.

We are also year round homeschoolers! Thanks for sharing! I don't see the spelling/grammar links...can you share? I am trying to find all the freebies with the budget so tight right now!

Sorry about that! I’ll get them added. The free spelling curriculum is called Spelling for Writing.

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

I think it’s so great for being completely free! I’ve been very happy with the phonics instruction so far.

@doriannoconnell1346 2 года назад

Praying for you! I have been teaching from my room the last 2 weeks and while it has been a challenge, I think my little ones and I have grown so much closer and have enjoyed our time. I have seen such love and compassion in them it has blessed me beyond what I could have imagined. Blessings to you and your girls!

I am praying for you Jess!!! I just had the same surgery you are having. I am two weeks post op today and I have to say I feel so much better. I love watching your channel, it always gives me encouragement!!!!

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

I’m so glad you find encouragement from my videos! 🥰 So glad to hear you’re recovering well! I had some rough recoveries after my foot surgeries, so that’s the part I’ve been most nervous about.

@kendalllane9145 2 года назад

I’m glad to see this! I used your older videos to gain a lot of perspective and get insight on different curricula as we started homeschooling this May for my oldest (love that we could start any time that worked for us with the flexibility of homeschooling!) So much homeschool content ends in June, so I’m glad to see what others are doing!

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

So glad it was helpful! Best wishes for your first homeschooling year!

@faithfullyYours_His_Glory 2 года назад

Hi there, I’m new here! Really appreciate the time and effort that you’ve put into these videos. This year will be my first EVER homeschooling with my 2nd grader. I know this is how the Lord is leading us, and I am so happy to be here for the journey; but I have felt a tad overwhelmed at times. I feel like untraining myself from the public school jargon, if you will, is helpful. Trying to see this as a lifestyle and not something so highly controlled even on a daily basis. Anyways, again, I value the information your sharing and look forward to continue hearing from your experiences.

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

Hi, Sarah! Thank you for your sweet encouragement! I’m praying you have a beautiful first year of homeschooling! Give yourself grace as you learn the rhythms and styles of learning what works best for your family. If the Lord is calling you to it, He will sustain you and provide all you need!

Prayers for you and all hands that touch you. The best advise I got after my hysterectomy was not to vacuum. (Push and pull) for 6 months. My hysterectomy has made my life so so much better. I hope it's the same for you. {Hugs}

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

Thank you so much! Everyone I’ve spoke to has said it’s the best decision they could have made. I’m hopeful that I’ll have the same results.

@danahall1282 2 года назад

Please take as much time as you need. When I had mine, I was cut from hip to hip, they couldn't do laser, so I had 8 weeks of recovery. So please take it easy. Praying for God to bless you during your recovery! I love all your videos. Keep up the great job you are doing. Give it to God!

@alinamillard5883 2 года назад

I'm super interested to hear more about Idlewild! How many units are in the curriculum? I looked at the sample online, and it looks fantastic. But looking at the list of topics, it definitely looks like more than you could cover in a year.

@TheHomeschoolConvert 2 года назад

There are 34 weeks of curriculum if you do a lesson four times a week. (There’s a creative movement prompt/field trip idea for the fifth day of the week.) My original plan was to stretch it out over two years, doing it two days a week with field trip ideas where we could fit them. It is a very rich curriculum, with lots of reading and art projects. You could definitely break it up over more than heat. I think we may try to complete it this year, but we may not get to every single art project.
