9 | Thoughts on Working and Homeschooling

Working from home while homeschooling your kids? 

Me, too.

Y'all, it isn't easy. In fact, it isn't easy under normal circumstances. Right now we're talking about a whole new level of "not easy." 

In this episode I share a few tips that may be helpful.

Resources

Don't forget, you don't have to do this alone! Here are a few resources:

• Check your library for the Libby app (audio books)
  Mystery Doug - free short science videos; also see Mystery Science for full lessons 
• The Brave Learner - great homeschool book for parents/guardians
• Math Mammoth is the math curriculum we use (1st-8th)
  
• Build Your Library is an affordable curriculum based on reading aloud for K-12. We do some but not all of this with my oldest.
  
• Blossom and Root is a naturey curriculum. 2nd grade incorporates botany and lots of herbal medicine projects.
  
• Podcasts my kids enjoy include Six Minutes/Remy's Life Interrupted; Finn Caspian; Wow in the World, Short & Curly; David Walliams' Marvellous Musical Podcast; Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest; Eleonor Amplified; Homeschool History; The Past & The Curious; Treasure Island 2020; Story Pirates; Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls; and Smash, Boom, Best.
  
• Curiosity Stream has a nice collection of documentaries.
  
• Outschool is a great place to outsource things you can't/don't want to/don't have time to teach. Or to sign the kids up for something to keep them busy. Referral link will get you a $20 credit.
