Can I just say that I love your videos, emails and podcasts (about to purchase nature hacking books)! I SO look forward to your monthly emails. I love the poems and everything else you add. They are a blessing to me. Thank you! We found and have been using math mammoth for a year and a half now (because of your videos) and love it! I feel like our 3rd graders (my current and your previous) sound very similar! HA! we also make math the first sit down work mine does. My kids also enjoy the podcast you have done! We have listened to every one several times! Thanks for all you do! -Eryn (homeschool mom of 3)
This video was so helpful! I am planning our rising third graders curriculum and want to incorporate more CM methods. I’d love to hear more about how you use Spelling Wisdom with your son. I’m very intrigued!
Do you prepare a books for him to read and then does narration on his own ? How often is he doing narration every week? Or Do you read to him then he narrates and writes on his journal ? Is he narrating, and making en entry for every chapter of a book or he reads a full book then narrates one time for the book. Thank you so much, your channel has really helped me get organized
Thanks for the video, Joy! Do you have any tips on doing a 3rd and a 5th grader at the same time? This is my 3rd year using Ambleside but I am not actually sure I'm doing groups correctly.
Hi Joy, thank you for your great videos. I’m a new subscriber I have 4 young children. My oldest is 8 we began our homelearning journey two years ago and this is our first year doing a more focused CM path. I’m curious about the written narration. My daughter hated writing and I didn’t push it too much. Now she is wanting to write but she doesn’t know how to spell. She is reading at grade level though. I would like for her to do daily written narrations . However what do you suggest for someone who doesn’t know how to spell well. Should I have her just do them with poor spelling or should I help he with the spelling? Thank you for any guidance
I really enjoy your videos. May i ask how old I’d a Year 3? Just starting Charlotte mason and try to figure out what grade my soon to be 8 year old is?
My 3rd grader is 8 and will turn 9 in May. I have another child with an August birthday and I started her in third grade when she turned 9. Hope that helps!
