Hi, I know this is 3 years ago, but we have a profoundly gifted boy. We tested him last October when 5, he turned 6 last week. We tested because he was so bored and complained that school was boring, he hated going. We really never expected profoundly gifted. But then came the problems, charter school basically didn’t want him no more. Public school in Florida said sorry he has to stay in K. We pushed and finally got him into first,2 months later they moved him to 2, then they pulled him out for 3rd grade math and ELA. They wanted him to go to 4th. We said after this year we will pull him and home school him. Started last 3 weeks ago, Bookshark. He is doing great but math is way too easy. So I haven’t watch to see what curriculum you use. But we wanted secular, we will teach religion. We wanted literature and writing, we wanted hands on, and we want to eventually do project based. So Bookshark is all of that and more. The way he is going, he is doing 2 weeks every 4 days, and he is doing about 6 weeks of math every 4days. It’s a four day week. We figure by Jan we will be in the next level. They go by levels not grades, but equal to 2nd grade but way harder than public school, that was a joke. He is for now right were he needs to be, he is almost ready for chapter books on his own, his hand writing is improving, and his spelling is improving. Why we tested. Well the school did a CogAt on him and he got the highest score for a K student. They never saw that before. So we went on for more testing 2 weeks later, and he was off the charts. 2 months into school and he scored a 99.9 in every test and every sub test. IQ way above the 145+. If you ever watch young Sheldon, that is him in a nutshell shell. You tell him once and he knows it. And many things he knows and we have no idea how he knows it. Like where does a 4 year old learn all 90 moons on Jupiter. Or how does a 5 year old know every countries flag. Or how does a 3 year old who does talk yet, all of a sudden talk 4 languages and sign language. In a home that only speaks English, while locked up in a house for 18 months due to Covid. But he can speak 4 languages. It was all just fun and games to us in the beginning, but when the school was like he is off the charts we said fine we will test. We plan on going deep into subjects this year and getting the basics down good. We figure he will do 2nd and 3rd this year, maybe 4th in math. Then next year we hope he will be challenged enough and we can slow down and go really deep into subjects. At some point we will have to send him back to school, because he will want inorganic chemistry, calculus and physics. I can’t teach them. Organic, Algebra two is my top level. Huge literature based, lots of reading and lots of in depth is how we will approach it. 4 days a week so he can play and do other things.

Please send all the books by post so I don't have to by them

Are you not using BFSU any more? If so, why did you decide to switch to this program?

Send all the books by post please by tomorrow

Send all the books by post please by tomorrow 😊

So fun 😊🥳

Any new videos coming out soon? I've missed your content ❤

Oh my gosh I so appreciate this! I know it's years later, but I'm just finding this now. These are all my feelings about Level K that we tried to use this year. I was considering PreK as a supplement to Blossom and Root for the social-emotional piece and maybe I'll just use the book list as a morning basket. The no copy and paste drives me crazy! There are lots of other amazing content creators who don't do that or get mad at people for questioning anything about their curriculum. I love a lot about Torchlight but I don't think it could ever be my main curriculum.

I know this video is old but I would love a more in depth review / flip through of some of the William and Mary curriculum!

ITS AS IF PEOPLE OBLUGEDBTHEIR KIDS TOVSTUDYVWHILE THEY EAT, OR TALKING ABOUT SCHOOLWORK AT THE DINNERVTABLE, AT BREAKFASTVEVEN,BITS WRONG,VTHEY DONTVENJOY THEIR FOOD FOR THEY MUST LISTEN TO YOY, PKEASE LET THEM ENJOY THEIR MEAL IN PEACE, ASVOUFHT TO BE DONE BY ALK PATENTS, AND LET THEM EAT AS SOON AS THEY ARE HUNGRY, THEIR STOMACH DEMANDS THAT FOOD STRAIGHTAW, YOU ARE NOT TJEIR PROFESSOR, BUT THEIR MOTJER, AND STUDYNG AND EATING, FOR ITSBLIKE STUDYNG EVEN IF YOU THONK ITS ONLY RWADING,VRUINS THEIR DIGESTION, BELIEVE ME, THETE ATE LOTSBOF CHEMICALS IN OUR BODY AND THEY MUST EAT MAYBE AT ABCERTAIN PACE, YOU SHOULDNT BREATHE DOWN TJEIR NECKS LIKE RHAT FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, YOU ARE NOT RUNNING AVRACE, THEY DONT NEED TO TAKE UNIVERSITY EXAMS TOMORROW, PKEASE LET THEM EAT AND ENJOY THEIR FOOD, I REPEAT, YOU ARE NOT RUNNUNG A RACE, XXXXXXXXXXXX

I am doing a Van Gogh unit with my 4-5 year old students. It's the second time I am doing it but your video is helping me add more to my curriculum. Thank you so much for sharing this! I had a hard time finding books and puzzles that would be appropriate for my age group and thankfully I found your suggested materials on Amazon. Thank you!

What reading/phonics program did you use? They have such a good handle on reading ❤️ my 2.5 year old can read 3 letter words but is so bored 😅. Any advice?

This was fun to hear what worked and didn’t work for your family. I always end up taking on too many resources. Some end up winners and some not so much. Thanks so much for sharing!! Looking forward to watching more.

Does Rain iw resounce have Black friday sales?

On the julius zebra book does it have roman numerals because one of my friends had the red book of julius zebra and it has roman numerals so let me know if u have an answer

Do you think this program would be good for children with processing disorders or any learning disabilities? We are looking for a science that's very straight to the point,fun easy projects that actually make sense, that is able to go with living books and videos. This would be for a 3rd grader. We currently are trying tgtb, and it's just boring, so much reading. The projects are boring. (He has learned more from videos and books I found then the curriculum pages)

Ever call their free curriculum consultants with questions?

Well this certainly is a timely video post for me! I just discovered this today and was curious to learn more. It looks so engaging! Thanks for the flip-through, I'm sold. :)

Oh my goodness so glad you are back - there really isn’t anyone providing the niche you are as far as I can tell. Hope you and your family are well. ❤️

Thank you for the flip through!! I think I would purchase a book for each child so they can journal in the book, I am surprised they did not offer extra consumables for purchase so families can do them together? Maybe this is a suggestion we can make! Do you know when the higher grades are being released?

Awesome. Thanks for sharing :)

Yay! Does this mean you are back?

Wow! Thanks for this!

Yay! Glad you are back!

So happy you're back! Love the video!

Missssed you!!!

So so thrilled you are back. I have some gifted kids myself and it’s so hard to find content that we can relate to with curriculum choices applicable to us. Thank you!!

Mine just arrived yesterday and I was spending two hours just to try to solve all the problems myself. 😂

SO HAPPY YOU ARE BACK!

Glad to see you posting again! Looks like awesome curriculum 😊

Thanks!

Oh you don't know how excited I am for this video! I appreciate you so much! I love Beast Academy lol

Come back. I miss your videos.

I LOOOVE your channel. So happy to see a new post from you! xoxo

I just discovered fishtank learning but there's not much about it on UA-cam that I've been able to find, so I'm glad to see you're really excited about it!

There are 3 books from Matt haige- the girl who saved Christmas, Boy named Christmas, and Father Christmas. All are great.

I second this! ❤

Do you still love MCT? I'm looking into it for my son. :)

I just found you and I'm excited I did. Not only do you show secular homeschooling resources, but you love to read! I really appreciate how passionate you are about great books and I love that you show inside the books! Your great summaries and peeks inside really help with confidently choosing books for my son. ❤😊

Where did u get the learning cards. The first ones you showed

I keep checking back to make sure I haven't missed new content (we all know UA-cam doesn't always give notifications even if you're subscribed with the bell on!), but alas, Christmas is still the most recent video... I hope that all is well with you and your family ❤

I just found your channel. I also have a gifted 5 year old, so I'm going to have to check out your other content!

Missing your informative and inspiring videos, hope all is well and we see you back soon!
