So wonderful. I'm a retired teacher, and I can truly say that I would definitely home school, if I were raising my children today. Such a great opportunity to speak into your children's lives with the values you believe in. God bless you, sweet family.
Thank you very much, I really enjoy it.
I taught in public school 22 years. I totally agree with you. I am so proud of her choice to homeschool!
Absolutely!!!!
I am so proud of you, Andrea!! I absolutely loved homeschooling my daughters. It was such a precious time and my girls are thriving as godly women! Be encouraged!! 😊👏👏♥️
I loved reading this, thank you 💗
I home schooled for 15 years using Abeka materials. I was excited when I saw the missionary card project your son did. We have been missionaries for 41 years. One of the cards he worked on was friends of ours. Fun! I really enjoy your CZcams channel.
Oh my goodness really? That is so amazing, thank you for sharing that with me! 💗💗
OMy Gosh!! I, literally, laughed out loud!!! Add up allllllllll the pages in allllllll those books.....now.....was there anything on any of those pages that taught a child how to be as extremely creative as your son who thought up a new way to use books.....as skates!!! I’m a retired teacher and THAT is what I miss the most. Children are so much fun and so naturally creative. Hold onto those beautiful, precious years and enjoy every second. It passes by too quickly.
Thank you so much, I already feel it is going so fast 💗💗💗
Very organized and nurturing environment. Your children are lucky to have you. I think you should post here what you feel in your heart. People will appreciate it.
Love the interaction with the boys. It’s shows you what real life looks like. My kids are grown but I miss those days. Enjoy them while you can. 💙💙💙
I’m just loving these videos of your sweet family and your homeschooling approach with them. Wishing the boys a great school year ahead! Ethan holding Isaiah is so precious. 💙
Wow, Andrea, your students have the best teacher, not only the full curriculum but manners? Perfect! Food is the fuel needed for thinking and learning for the children! Being in the kitchen is the best location possible!
Thank you so so much!
We use our dining table as well and I have my homeschool stuff in one basket and one small bin. I only have one kid but this is working better than what we did last year which was having a room that we rarely used. Simplicity works.
Thanks for sharing this. Insulation with much prayer this endeavor. I agree to pray for y’all as well, my son/his wife home school with same goals. Raising sweet, strong people. Elizabeth
This brought me down memory lane. I homeschooled for 20 years my seven children ( 5 boys and 2 girls ) i just joined the homeschool world again this year as we decided to HS my oldest daughter for her junior and senior year. My youngest daughter is going to a classical education christian school but we may decide to HS her next year. Enjoy the journey! my first 5 kids were boys and they have such a strong bond and relationship and I attribute it all to them being home together . Even at 53 I enjoy watching all your content. You remind me of a younger me ..lol your doing great momma! You wont regret all the time you spend with those precious boys !
I am so happy you enjoyed it, thank you for sharing these sweet memories with me and your encouragement!
Aw love this! about to have our fourth any day and a little nervous about how we’re going to homeschool and be on a routine with a newborn. Would love more homeschool videos, such an encouragement!
Thank you for sharing!! I have been homeschooling for 18 plus years, four kids and now only my youngest left and she just started her first high school year!! We love Abeka and I have used many of their materials for years!! The dining room table was also our homeschool room for many of those early years!! That is the joy and freedom of homeschool!! We love it!!
You are a very busy mom plus doing u tube. Wow. That makes this grandma tired! You do a great job. I'm impressed with the matetials for their schooling. I love your organization. That's a video right there home organization for all the home decor, school materials, etc.
I eish i had your videos when i eas a young mom, now a mature grandma!
💗
"Let's not skate with those!" 🤣 Kids crack me up.
Love the video Andrea, this is my first year homeschooling my children. I have a K5 as well and a 9th grader, we homeschool in the dining room as well, since our breakfast nook is a little tighter in space. We have made it work so far, I also keep my son’s workbooks in a buffet table in our living room. God had been tugging at my heart to homeschool since a few years back and this year I finally went through with it. There were so many unknown to me and that what holding me back to do it, but I am immensely grateful to the Lord that He never leaves us and guides us to do best for our children. It’s honestly the best decision that we have made, thanks again for sharing part of your life with us. God bless you💓💕
I am so happy that you listened and followed through and I hope and pray this year goes well for you! 💗
@@PineandProspectHome Thank you so much💕
I am so grateful I came across this video. So many people share their home school room and it’s an entire classroom. I was feeling discouraged as we don’t have that kind of space. Thank you for sharing this! It makes me feel like I’m not doing the wrong thing by doing dining room homeschool. It’s what’s practical for us!! Thank you ❤
I loved this video! Thank you for showing how simple your setup can be for homeschooling. Your family is absolutely precious. ❤️
Thank you Crystal ❤️
Ethan is going to be your best helper with the baby, in the kitchen & all around gofer. He takes directions very well ( proven with the tomato sauce) & seems very cooperative & responsible. Sandi
Andrea …thank you for sharing this! My babies are 41 and 44 ! The oldest daughter is a teacher and the youngest daughter is a nurse. BUT how is wish they home schooled ! Our oldest granddaughter graduated in June and our youngest grandbabies started Pre-K on Wednesday…what an age difference right !
You are a busy Momma ! GOD BLESS YOU…best vested time…OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR EDUCATION 💙💙💙💙
Thank you for always being so supportive Jayne 💗
The boys are so excited and sweet. Love that you included them in video. Bless you all
Very good system we used in the French school were I worked was to make them analyse every day 1sentence for grammar or Interpunktion rules by the knowledge they acquired already. After 12 years of school they are definitely fit with few work every day.
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing, at this time in life I find it important for parents to think about home schooling. Our kids need love and guidance at this point in this stressful life and there is so much going on with the school systems. I think they learn a lot more at home then sitting In class with masks. I got my fathers world this year I am hoping that my grandson who is in kindergarten really enjoys this curriculum.
I LOVE My Father’s World! We have used this curriculum through high school. I hope you love it, too!
I would love more homeschool content from you if you ever get the itch! Honestly, seeing how you homeschool with a newborn would be really interesting, as I’m in a similar position! ❤️
I loved it - and we haven't started school yet either 😊 - every year is different, we usually start earlier but haven't this year. We have several kids and a small space without much storage, I love how you organized it all. Gave me lots of ideas!! 😊
You are an amazing Mom!! I know you are overwhelmed sometimes, but you are doing an amazing job!! God is good!
You are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.! Your home is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.! Your family is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Love you! 🍁🧡🍁🧡
💗💗💗
Never after having a baby could I be balancing what you are. You look great. I love the excitement over the books. I love that he is dirty from playing outside. I am happy to have a peak into homeschooling.
That is so sweet, thank you 💗
Praise God for moms like you!
I homeschooled my kids too when my daughter started third grade and my oldest son was starting kindergarten. I taught them both the third grade science, history and health (from A Beka). It was amazing to me that my kindergarten learned everything my third grader did. My youngest was two. He would sometimes answer the questions I asked which was just shocking as I didn't know he was paying any attention. It is such a blessing to homeschool and really stay so involved in your kids lives! My youngest is now in his second year of college. The years go by so fast! Seeing all of the A Beka books brought back so many memories. Thank you for sharing! God bless you!
Yes, I have experienced this as well! I love that they are all learning at the same time, thank you for this encouraging comment!
In your cabinet in the kitchen, if you had pull out shelves installed - center & bottom, you would have more room & you would love them - you get a little less space on the sides but then you get a full shelf instead of the half shelf - I put them in every cabinet I could & it’s so nice - the reason you need both is that if you do the pull out only in the center, you can’t really get to things in the back of the bottom of the cabinet - just a thought - more storage is always great, IMO !
You are a great Mama. You speak so kind to your boys. It is awesome that you are homeschooling and teaching your children Christian values! I really like your channel and share things with my daughter from it. My daughter also homeschools so sent her this video.
Andrea Sweetie, Ur Home Schooling Looks Like A Lot Of Fun! When I Was In School, There Wasn't Home Schooling!
😪 Ur Boys Are So Precious! Thanks For Sharing! ❤ Love U Girl! It's Awesome That Ur Teaching Them About GOD & His Creation! Pray That Y'all Have A Very Blessed & Prosperous Weekend!
😇❤😘💋🥰❤😊❤😇
😇 Truly Blessed 😇
What a beautiful home and family! Love seeing your homeschool space! :)
no worries I started the last week of August and its been a bumpy road but we just a few days ago assembled the kids desk and the homeschool feel is finally here! Keep your head up its okay!!
We never started until after Labor Day, took every Friday off, took every government holiday off. Graduated 2. 1 just graduated college-full scholarship; other just finished coding academy and deciding what to do next.
I really enjoyed this Homeschooling video! Thank you for sharing!
Bless you and your family hope you have a wonderful school year
I love this new style of video! Thanks for sharing your homeschool books and room. I homeschooled from my kitchen until my children went to college. As an encouragement- all were successful and enjoying their chosen professions.
We use the dining room also and I use my bedroom because that's where my desk and computer are 👍 nothing fancy or "dedicated"
The Ultimate backseat book could be the "backyard" book.
Looks like they're enthusiastic about learning, which is a blessing.
I am a retired Montessori teacher and we teach Practical Life skills (cleaning, manners, gardening, etc.) as the foundation of learning; you're already doing that so good job.
Have a wonderful school year. What a relief to know your boys will be happy and healthy at home, avoiding all the stress that public school is experiencing these days.
Best of luck!
You might investigate Montessori info; there a lot that aligns with your homeschooling goals. 💙
Loving these type of videos!!! So encouraging!! I appreciate you so much for showing your homeschool materials, routine, and how you organize it. Love the idea of preparing it all Sunday night. Can’t wait to be a mom and do all of this!
I would love to see more Homeschooling videos.
One day I saw that you have a book , The Voyage of Growing Up. An older lady, who was a friend of our family, gave me that book, when I was a young girl. I was told it was a health textbook. I enjoyed reading it, so much! It will be a great one for you to read aloud, when you want to include health lessons.
We have used many of the items you showed! Love abeka!
😘
Looooovee this! We're homeschoolers too! It's just the best!
We don't start homeschooling until real fall weather, usually October for us. ☺
Oh and we don't have a dedicated room for homeschooling for the same reason as you! Cook while they work
Yes exactly, thank you for sharing! 💗
Yay! Those blend ladders are reading superpowers! Have a great year!
I love watching you and your family! Blessings to you💗
My heart just exploded with joy and love for you and your sweet boys
I don't blame you for home schooling, there are a lot of bullies in school. So endearing to see the baby rocking at the end.🐿🍂
Thank you so much!
You are the best Momma!❤
You are one busy lady. I love the excitement over all the school goodies. I love that they wanted to share. Yo look great.
Andrea, you are so inspiring. I can see the enthusiasm with your boys for learning. Such a great age. Sure things can get kinda hectic at times but you are molding young, responsible, young boys for tomorrow. They are so cute and already for school. I am so glad you are home schooling. I think they will get a much better education. Public schools today, well...you know. Anyway, I think your wise. Your in my thoughts and prayers. God has given you some precious boys and it's obvious they love their Momma and each other. Thank you for sharing.
This video is so useful for me…🙏🏻😃
You are such a beautiful family!!🥰🥰🥰
I think homeschooling is so awesome. I could never do it because I was a single parent and had to go to work. They are all grown up, married, and have great careers. I wish I could homeschool my grandkids but right now their parents are sending them to regular school. It’s fine. I did help them during the time they were doing on line school and that was fun. I especially like doing field trips with my kindergartener. So much fun. Good memories.
I could never homeschool because I had 4 kids and I worked full time and was a single parent.
Thank you, Andrea! My son just started Kindergarten in public schools. We plan on moving him into a private religious school because we want him to learn about God, not just on Sunday's, everyday. I also want him to practice and study on the weekends so your tips has helped me plan how to organize and prepare for this.
Yes, we don't have any private schools close to us, but I love that ❤️
Stephanie, I speak as a retired elementary school teacher. Don't overload your son with study on the weekends. Even God rested on the 7th day. If your little guy receives good instruction five days a week, let him have a couple of days off to just be a kid. You want him to be well rounded and sociable, with many interests...not a seven days of the week academic.
@@maryoleary2037 you're absolutely right, Mary. Thank you for the advice. I didn't even think of that. I guess because he had so much free time as a wee little, I forget that he has a schedule time now, a time to study and a time to play. ☻
@@stephanieholderfield2475 It is very obvious that you want the very best for your little guy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with down time...so make sure he has plenty of that also. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens": Ecclesiastes 3.
@@maryoleary2037 ((HUGS)) thank you for your beautiful words, Mary. I appreciate your guidance and your loving advice. ⚘
We haven’t started yet either! We’re starting Monday! I think I’ll share my “room” on my channel too :)
Yes, you should!
I love the REAL home school experience
Thank you so much ❤️
Brings back such sweet memories! I homeschooled my oldest for two years and we used the kitchen table just like you are doing. I was busy with a newborn, as you are, but it was wonderful! When I put him back into public school because we moved into a good school district, his teacher was pleasantly surprised at how advanced he was. Enjoy your newborn. He and all of your boys are precious.
We use our dining room as well, and I love it. The memories that are made around the table are ones that I know will last a lifetime for both me and the littles. Simplicity is valuable. ❤❤❤
I only found your CZcams Channel a short time ago. You have such a calming voice and make things so very interesting to watch. Thank you so much for sharing your decorating ideas and family with us. Your home is beautiful and your children are precious. I was very excited to see you homeschool your children. I have two sons and we also homeschooled them with Abeka. It was a blessing to be able to experience that time with them, share the things that are most important in life and watch them grow into responsible young men. Many people said they will miss so much not going to public school and I am so glad they did. There is so much negative in the world. Thank you and may God bless your endeavors.
I love listening to you . Whatever you talk about I find so interesting. You talk with such enthusiasm and make every topic interesting
I loved how "real" this vlog was. Blessings!
Wow! I miss those days. My oldest of four is now 42 and my baby is 30. We used the older editions of those same books. I still have them and cannot part with the memories!! Have fun and treasure every moment . . . thanks for your channel!
What a great idea for book storage! I love that!
Love the way you are with your boys & school
Beautiful family
This decor is similar to what I aspire for in our home. I like that everything has it's place. Curriculums and supplies can easily amass to clutter and an eyesore with different colors.
On a side note, I don't know what you mean by that drawer of pens being out of order. My junk drawer is messy. Type B personality here.
I was smiling through your video today. The boys are so ready for school 😊. All of them are so precious!! Your little guy is getting so big! Have a wonderful school year Andrea!! You are a loving Mommy ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very nice that your children will be safe at home 💕🤗
Oh, I love Abeka books. So colourful and fun.
Love you are teaching from a biblical point,,,,you go girl!!!
A great job with school at home ! ❤️
I love homeschooling. I’m blessed with a large basement to homeschool in but your so right it doesn’t have to be elaborate. We had a home very similar to yours when we started homeschooling 5 years ago. I miss the closeness.
Hopefully soon we will have the basement too ❤️
You are one special Mom!!🤗
I love the you repurposed the dresser for your homeschool needs. You have a beautiful family. Great job Mama!
Thank you, that dresser is so special to me!
I LOVE Abeka Book! I used it for my children who are now 34 and 29. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Wow..you are amazing!! Wife, mom to 4 boys including a newborn and teacher!!
You are such a terrific mother and so organized with their school work! You have to have alot of patience!
Thank you!
Homeschool mom of 3 grown children. Our children learned from the couch and recliner and the great outdoors! Many parents do school at home which is so different then homeschooling! We used Abeka as well. (Many years ago) 😊 Still loved watching as it brought back many great memories!
That's a great space for homeschooling! Centrally located with lots of natural light! And there's nothing like cozying up on the couch for reading time 💛.
Thank you so much for sharing with us. I love it. ❤️ They're so excited. Good job Mama, so cute they call you Mama.
I have that same exact basket, I keep all my jewelry making supplies. 😊👍
Great video and I’m sure it provided a lot of encouragement as well as some information to other moms out there who may perhaps might be struggling with even how to begin or revamp their home school routine and space. I have a feeling that you might be getting more request to incorporate this type of videos along with what you are currently doing which I think would be a great idea. Bless your week Andrea .🍁🍂🍂🍁🍁
Thank you so much ❤️
Hello Andrea, Home schooling is so great. Your son's are not divided amongst themselves and they learn how it feels to be raised all united, a homely environment. Caring for one another as it should be.
Thank you, super helpful! It's nice to see where people store supplies and everything.
Thanks for sharing Andrea, I’m a grandmama but it gave me wonderful ideas for when the munchkins come to visit.
Love seeing another boy mom! I have four boys too! They are truly a blessing from God. Thanks for showing us your minimalist homeschooling. I am in the process of minimalizing our homeschooling.
I would love more homeschool organization/routine videos!
I love this, Andrea. Such a blessing to homeschool. What memories I have with my kids. Homeschooling was so much fun. God bless you and your family.
Great job. You do amazing with your boys. They all are so precious.
Love the binders!!!! Very organized!!!!! Great idea!!!! I think it is so nice that you are able to home school your babies! Your babies will know of God and his wonderful love! That is precious! You will not have to worry about anyone trying to influence their beliefs! You are such a blessing young lady! I know that your parents are so proud of you!!!! You have such a beautiful family and I enjoy your honest and Christian channel!
I used to work as a Secretary at a Christian School. And Andrea you get a A+ A+ A+
Love this! My niece also Homeschool’s! Way to go! I hope this inspires Mother’s that they can do this!
I’d love to learn more about your life with the all the boys. It’s fascinating.
It would be nice to see more videos on how you organize your space in different areas of your home, closets, pantry, etc.
Always excited to meet a family that believes in teaching their children a biblical worldview. ✝️ May God bless your school year!
Loved the vlog style today! Great curriculum! ❤
This video was so fruitful for me! I’m a first year homeschooler and also using my kitchen as our “homeschool room”. The binder system is GENIUS! I haven’t seen anything like that and I’ve been on a quest to find a more simple approach! Managing all the school stuff is overwhelming me so much in my tiny home. I’m going to try the binder! 😊 thank you so much! I stinkin love your channel and blog (and course) so much! Have a beautiful day!
Andrea ... I so love the way that you have incorporated their schooling right into your home & it seems like it is a wonderful system. Your boys are all so adorable ... I love that you are raising them with a faith-based foundation. God Bless you & your beautiful family ... have a wonderful weekend!!!
I think home schooling is such a great blessing for children they get so much more one on one have a great evening God Bless
So nice to see your homeschool plans this year. It brings back fond memories for me as I homeschooled all four kids - "kindergarten to Calculus" They have flown our nest now and we have 13 granchildren. But, watching your video reminds me of how I long for and miss the new year excitement, new books, and great read alouds. I miss my "littte" kids! But they are gone now and that is ok. BTW We happen to read a number of books that took us on adventures around the world, "All in one Boat", "Still in One Boat", "Around the World In Eighty Days", and several more! I did not realize for some years that our read aloud times probably inspired one of my kids to literally travel the world for years on end - with 5 kids in tow!! They have been to over 30 countries and every continent.(until Covid) Another one of my grown children traveled to India, Nepal, Scotland and Japan.
Thanks, Andrea, for the trip down memory lane! You are doing a great job!!
