    Getting Started with Nature Notebooks

    You've heard about nature notebooking (AKA journaling) or seen some beautiful shots of children's nature journals. But you have reservations... Your kids are not artistic (and neither are you!). It seems so simple, is it really worth my time? How do I encourage and inspire my kids to record in their notebooks? Nature notebooking is your child’s first science notebook. They learn how to wonder, observe, record, and make connections. These skills are essential for success in future STEM subjects. Nature study is truly the foundation of science. But most importantly it develops lifelong learning habits and an eye for beauty. In this video I talk about the principles and how to begin nature notebooking – the supplies you’ll need, what it looks like in real life (I’ll show you samples of my boys’ notebooks), and some troubleshooting in case your child isn’t as enthusiastic as you are! ⬇️ LINKS ⬇️ YOUTUBE VIDEO PATREON MY FAVORITE NATURE STUDY SUPPLIES SIMPLEWONDERS.ORG --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jessica9025/support

    How I Teach Nature Study | Simple Subjects

    Nature study is one of the most important subjects in developing the mind and heart! For this reason it is my FAVORITE subject to teach. It is one of the reasons I was drawn to Charlotte Mason's method of education. In this episode I briefly discuss the principles behind nature study and how I teach it at home with 3 simple steps -- weekly nature walk, object lesson, and nature notebook. Over the next few episodes I will go into detail about each one of these steps. For now, I hope you get a general idea of what it looks like and (hopefully) some excitement to begin! ____ YouTube Video: https://youtu.be/KdiFG5w6EMA --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jessica9025/support

    4 | On Teaching Grammar and Writing w/ Havalah Turner

    In this episode I get to chat with my friend and fellow homeschool mamma, Havalah Turner.  Grammar and writing can be terrifying subjects for homeschoolers. We either overdo it with stacks of worksheets, or we don’t teach it all.   But there is a better way! Writing is simply putting thoughts down on paper, and grammar is playing with words and finding the clearest and most beautiful way to convey those ideas.  And in this episode we talk about exactly that – how to encourage your kids to write down their ideas (i.e. narrations!) and some ideas of how to teach grammar in a way that is playful and useful.  Some topics we cover:  Grammar instruction, Copia, The Writing Revolution, The Brave Writer, Institute For Excellence in Writing, Know and Tell, written narration, composition.  Links The Writing Revolution by Judith Hochman and Natalie Wexler Know and Tell by Karen Glass But How Do You Teach Writing?

    3 | The Early Years: What Preschool Children *Actually* Need

    “In this time of extraordinary pressure—educational and social—perhaps a mother’s first duty to her children is to secure for them a quiet growing time" -Charlotte Mason, Home Education "What should I do with my preschool-age kids to make sure they're ready for school?" "Which preschool/kindergarten curriculum should I use?" "My first grader keeps getting in trouble at school. He's so wiggly and disruptive. What should I do?" The Early Years, the stage from birth to six years old, is a special time of immense growth -- both physically, mentally, and emotionally. And because of this they require a totally different educational approach than school-age children. What do young kids actually need from adults and how can we best provide a "quiet growing time?" I'll answer those questions and more in this episode. __ (03:10 - 04:35) Early Childhood Development Priorities (07:48 - 09:53) Analyzing Trends in Early Childhood Education (11:50 - 13:41) Parental Attachment Impacts Child's Mental Health (18:17 - 20:25) Sensory Development in Children (25:47 - 27:12) Balancing Formal Lessons With Child-Led Learning (28:08 - 29:11) Importance of Quiet Growing Time (34:47 - 36:07) Benefits of Outdoor Play for Children (42:41 - 43:39) Early Years Development Guide and Activities __ Become a Patreon Member for only $5/month The Early Years Guide Preschool + Kindergarten at Home | YouTube --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jessica9025/support

    1 | The Reading Revolution: Teach Your Child to Read Well and LOVE It w/ Julie Ross

    In this episode I have a conversation with Julie Ross, founder of A Gentle Feast. We discuss the different ideas of teaching reading (AKA "The Reading Wars"), the pros and cons of each, and the research on reading. We also discuss why Charlotte Mason's method of teaching reading was so ingenious and effective! _____ Julie has been teaching for almost two decades in various educational settings including public elementary school, private Christian school, and a university model homeschool academy. She was the co-founder of two of those schools utilizing my expertise in curriculum and organizational leadership. She created the scopes and sequences for these schools and created my own original curriculum for several classes. She has a B.S. in Elementary Education from Penn State University.
