How exciting! I just got a call from Sonlight because I requested the free literature book and lesson plans. I mentioned your name when asked where I heard about the company. The lady replied, " Oh yup we know her." I thought that was funny😄

We love those dot cards for visual math fact family drills. Abeka is just so good. We use Singapore dimensions as her spine and then arithmetic 2 for her spiral support. She just does one page a day and we adore it. The Abeka readers are just so so good too!

Yes! I use Christian Light Education for math and I ordered a set of addition and subtraction flash cards from them even though I had my own because they are organized by CLE and labeled for when to use them. So each day when my daughter’s lesson says to practice L and M flash cards for 5 min k can grab them easily. With 7 kids this is a must.

Based on some advice from my veteran homeschool mom friends, I did IEW for the first time this year with my reluctant writer (4th grade). It has been awesome! And let me be clear, I’m still helping him physically write while he narrates…but his understanding of how stories are structured and what makes a good story has improved so much. It seems like a lot at first, but I’m glad I took the time to figure it out because now I understand why it’s a classic, well-loved curriculum.

Loved seeing this. Thanks for sharing!

We are using IEW for the second year. I do love it and think it has improved my kids writing drastically. I did SS year 1 Level A for my son in 5th grade. The first two weeks were easy but it quickly got to be too much for him to complete a lesson in one week. I also split the video into two days. Even with modifying the schedule he learned so much! Don’t be afraid slow things down if videos, lessons and writing take too long for your kid. We will be using it for the third year next school year!

Loved the haul 🎉❤

I used IEW SS 1A this year and am SO glad I got the Teaching SS. I helps to understand the whys. I also listen to the podcasts. The most important one for me was the 4 deadly mistakes in teaching writing.

Unboxing videos are so much fun! ❤

Love it all! We’re doing Abeka for our first grade year phonics, language, and spelling. I just placed my order for son light science A through your link. I already have math with confidence so I’m using what I have on hand. I am so excited. I am excited to see how you implement IEW. That’s the plan for our writing program when we get there.
-
Such a great haul!
-
I agree that you do need the teacher course for IEW, even if you have the video lessons. Just my opinion / experience.
-
I love unboxings! I hear you on thr being hesitant with IEW. It looks/sounds so overwhelming to me. I have very reluctant writers. I hope to see more videos on it once you’ve used it!
-
We love the Mind Benders books. My 16 yr old just grabs her book and does them on her own 'cause she loves them so much. IEW is amazing. Hope you love it as much as we do.
-
Thanks for sharing! I use Abeka for all our subjects but having been thinking about adding some of the books from Sonlight (I love the idea of the books going along with history).
-
Musical multiplication made a huge difference for us!
-
Same on the Abeka flash cards, so glad I finally got them!
-
Always love curriculum unboxing videos!! SO much fun!! 😍 We’re currently doing BYL5 with my 10yo and we are LOVING it so much!! We’re only on week 8, but every single book has been a huge hit so far!! Excited to see what you pull from it!! I’m also so excited to hear about how you like IEW- I’m currently in research mode, but IEW is high on the list because my son is also super logical… are you starting soon or waiting until next school year?
-
I wish we would have continued with Abeka math in elementry school. I never got the same results with the other math programs we tried. We loved G & T B language arts 4 and we've been happy with their other levels too. We're going to try IEW next year. I hear nothing but good things about it.

Great Haul! I am considering ordering the D'nealian handwriting book Grade 1 because the worksheets I printed were not enough.
