Homeschool: Advice on Middle School Concerns and 6th Grade Curriculum Plan #howtohomeschool

Amen! Thinking for themselves is the number 1 skill the children need in this communication age.

Great tips on how to work with middle schoolers. I have 3 right now :) And I need to remember some of these things.

My youngest is also a 6th grade boy. I've enjoyed your experienced perspective on homeschool. Every year has different challenges and one that we're having is the growing in independence for my son. We are both struggling to know what he can be independent with and what he needs my instruction or help on. That and managing strong emotions. He'll say that he doesn't like school and I try not to be offended. My 8th grade daughter has a similar attitude. I think it comes from the struggle that they experience in learning. Anything new is hard and it's especially frustrating with math. Math-U-See has been going well for my 2 younger students this year. Time management for my 16 & 14 year old daughters is a huge struggle. I hope my son is seeing this and learning. But consistency is very hard around our house. Any tips you have on that would be great!!

You are always so full of wisdom 🙏 Thank you 😊

Hello, just found your channel while searching for 6th grade history curriculum! My name is also Rachel and I also have 4 boys! My oldest is in 5th grade, my older two are in public school but I really want to pull them out and homeschool next year. I’m doing some research and seeing what might work best

My son is 10 and will be in 6th grade next year. Your videos have been so helpful. I’m finding with my son his learning style is much different than it was for my two older girls.

Very encouraging! I definitely would like my 11yo to start thinking about how to solve things on his own. He has the tools, just needs to practice accessing them!

My daughter just finished week 17 of this same guide with HOD. We are both loving it! We discovered it thanks to one of your videos last year.

Please pray for us. We had a serious car accident on Christmas Day night. My husband is having very intense deliblating headaches and is having a shunt put in. I broke my back in two places and I have to step away from homeschooling for a season.

I'm contemplating how my daughter is on her last semester of 8th grade - I don't even know how that happened! It starts going faster and faster.... GAH! I'll only have high schoolers next year!

I have always wanted to try HOD. But my son’s a 6th grade but he’s not on level ( with public school ) but he’s on his level if that makes sense. How would I know where to put him in HOD. He doesn’t even write stories well

My 8th grader needs something her freshman year for geography that has a lot of map work. Anything you would suggest?
