The past couple of weeks, my social media feed has been filled with family and friends sharing their stories of being thrown into the world of homeschooling.

Some are excited about the prospect…others, well…not so much!

However, one resounding cry is that most feel unfit or not up to the task.

Unqualified even.

That’s so not true, folks!

Remember, God gave those kiddos to you! While your child’s teachers are fantabulous, and do an outstanding job of educating and caring for your children, you will always remain their first and MOST qualified teacher. In fact, you are more than qualified for the job. I PROMISE you that. You’ve GOT this!!

While my oldest attends a tech high school, I do homeschool my youngest son, who is in 8th grade. Our current days are just as far from normal as anyone else’s (contrary to belief, we don’t spend all of our time at home!), but I do recognize I may have some blessed insight that others may not have when it comes to this homeschooling gig.

I have compiled a list of over 800 resources that I pray will help you in your journey in the weeks ahead. I urge you to take those packets or remote learning materials that your teachers sent home with you and pull some of these extra materials to go along with them. Perhaps a video or online gaming site that supplements that particular day’s lesson material.

I have put a star next to those sites that I am using now, or have used in the past. Those I recommend highly. The other sites, while I have not used them (yet!!), I did visit and them seem pretty solid.

Just a note, my son and I really LOVE Crash Course, which can be found on You Tube (link below). The videos are solid, and John Green is a fantastic teacher. He is also the #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of The Fault in Our Stars, Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, and An Abundance of Katherines. The videos cover all subject matters in depth, but in an engaging way. It is geared to and high school and college, but we started using it last year in 7th grade and he understood it all very well. There is also a Crash Course For Kids, although not as many videos because they are still curating it. You can visit here for info about the series.

My son is also a history buff studying the Civil War in depth this year, and absolutely loves “The Civil War In 4 Minute” series by the American Battlefield Trust, also found on You Tube (link below). You can find out more about them here.

We are also a HUGE fan of notebooking, which is sort of like lap books on steroids. Fantastic for kids where textbook learning is just not their thing. My son loves this over traditional textbook learning any day. Find more info about notebooking here.

I hope this helps you in your journey ahead! 🙂

Remember, He’s got your back!!
