What levels of the good and the beautiful are your boys using? I found myself in the same boat as you last year and started my boys out on it to lighten my load. So it has been going great, I just hope I didn't start them too far back, but I suppose a review is never a bad thing. My boys are also 9th age 15 and 7th age 13. My 15 year old is also reading through apologia biology 2nd edition. We are trying it out to see if he ready for deeper learning and see what he wants and how he wants to learn in the high school years. I do so much miss the spend the day reading aloud and that was enough days!! We haven't let go of copywork yet. We are having our boys copy the Bible cover to cover (well hopefully). We started way back when they were 9 and 8 copying the beginners Bible and then when they finished it we transitioned to copying one side full page of a composition book. They both seem very happy and proud to copy it. My youngest was excited to tell me he made it Exodus. We also have them copying the Declaration of independence in the constitution. I do believe they are both on their 2nd time through. I figure if I fail at all things homeschool, teaching, ect if they at least know God's word, how our government is supposed to work and what their rights are. Then I can say we successfully educated our children. But I also want them to be able to articulate themselves well on paper and face to face. I've heard good things about the good and the beautiful and many who are currently using it as well. We just don't tend to homeschool on the same timeline as others in our community. Everyone around us goes straight back to public school at home as soon as their child hits 8th grade through 12th grade. For us, public school high school model is one of the very reasons we wanted to homeschool; so I have no intention of copying it at home. It blew my mind when everyone switched gears as our kids were hitting 8th grade especially within our co-op. It was like a Charlotte mason 180 to public school / college prep at home. Definitely not the way we wanted to handle learning or preparing for high school or college. Thanks for sharing.

I have a younger elementary student and we cherish our real aloud time. We keep it to Bible plus one book and this gives us time to dig into both. I love hearing your homeschool updates.

Great hat girl! 👒 ☀️ We have been using TGTB for LA since the beginning (though that hasn’t been long since my oldest is just finishing second) and we also have found it to be rich, as you said. I also do love the mentions of God, prayer and other basic Christian themes in the books and curriculum. I am personally curious what your thoughts are about using TGTB even though the creator of the curriculum is Mormon. I personally have not encountered anything to allude to that specific religion but I also know parents who avoid it due to that fear and not wanting to support a Mormon company financially. God Bless you for your encouraging videos!

Alana, have you heard anyone talking about the “repent of your sins” being a false gospel? It’s something I have been studying for the past 6 months or so!

We love the good and the beautiful here. My kids are both in kindergarten and most of their structured schoolwork is from them. Both kids are learning so much and our sit down work only takes 40-60 minutes a day depending on how motivated the kids are.

The reading with Beautiful Feet has felt too much to me. We loved Almost Home but didn’t love Pocahontas so didn’t finish that one. I am right there with feeling we need something different/else but not sure what that is. 🤔

@@KayeMarceaux Corno manso blessings and mari complaisant greetings to my old friend Kaye as well! On this dark and stormy night; as the old oak trees moan and complain; listening to the goblins gobble tales of yore in the forests of yestertime. Meanwhile, inside the mushy mushroom hut the elders that poke the magical berries in the bowl with their golden rods while bouncing up and down on their raised beds; hearing the roasted pecan bird ringing the bells while feeding it's chick peas. Outside, your hubby's severly dilapidated hair on his nearly decapitated head blows in the wind like an antiquated spanish kite! For that is the way of the meek horn with the blushed red face of cocu content compersion. 👺

Christianity is repackaged paganism. The son (sun) with a crown of thorns (sun beams), Easter and Christmas around the spring and winter equinox's, the ages moving from the Ram or Moses (Aries) to the fish or Jesus (Pisces) and so on. It's a beautiful thing but it's all just metaphors for reality.
