Schoolhouse Teachers Review

I’m so excited to have joined the Homeschool Review Crew. I’ve been enjoying reading member’s reviews since we began our homeschooling journey, and now I get to jump in and try out new products and share about them with you! To kick off the year, I got to check out SchoolhouseTeachers.com and was blown away by the variety of resources that they offer! I tried out the Ultimate Annual Yearly Membership, which includes access to over 425+ courses for all ages (even adults!), worksheets, a video library, and access to World Book where children can explore and learn!
​
To start with, we checked out a 2nd-grade creative writing course: Adventures in Writing.  Writing is what I do for fun and for income, but with that being said, I have absolutely no idea how I'd teach my children- or anyone else how to write.  We printed out the lesson plan and the course content- a total of 51 pages and got to work exploring!

​Now, my son would technically be in 1st grade, so I knew this would be a bit of a stretch. But it was so much fun that he didn’t realize the “stretching” part. The course was made up of 10 lessons and it was recommended we spend 2 weeks on it- working 5 days a week. We took a slower approach as some of the concepts were brand new to him. We started by creating a character in lesson one, developing a setting in lesson two, then creating a plot and focusing on descriptive writing in lessons three and four.  Lessons five through ten guided us on writing out the story and editing it, which we tailored to our needs.

When we decided to take a break from the lessons for the day, we put on a video from the SchoolhouseTeacher’s video library. Anyone else feel like they need a vacation after a morning of homeschooling is done? Well, a vacation is out of the budget, but a quick break to catch my breath while my kids learn important values? That’s invaluable! My two-year-old especially enjoyed the message and the characters!

I also really benefited from checking out SchoolhouseTeacher’s literacy center. I feel like teaching children to read is one of those tasks that is fairly simple, or not at all! And, we happen to be in the “it’s not easy” boat at the moment.


​The Literacy Center provided really helpful advice for me as a mom, a course we’re looking forward to checking out called “Teaching Reading through Play,” as well as interactive books for my kids to read through their World Book program. World Book is a world of exploring in itself, with interactive content for kids of all ages. My kids enjoyed the early reading books, “Trek’s Travels,” as well as the games. ​

​SchoolhouseTeachers offers so many resources, that I feel like it’s an amazing “start here” place for homeschoolers! It’s easy to invest a small fortune into books, courses, online programs, and video libraries, or you can enjoy just ONE subscription that has it all included! We’re looking forward to watching “Drive Thru History” to complement our history reading and diving into their early reading resources! And, for being awesome readers of the review crew- I’m excited to share a promo code for 30% off the Ultimate Annual Yearly Membership!
