Absolutely right! I homeschool my two girls (always have since my nine year old started preschool) and I taught second and third grade for 17 years before I got married. Take your precious kiddos OUT!! Even if you and your spouse both work and one of you can’t homeschool. Find a reliable caregiver during your working hours and keep them at home. The academics they’ll miss for a little while (until T comes back and fixes everything) won’t amount to much and they can catch up later. Please take your babies out of school and protect them from the death jab!
I'm trying homeschooling for the first time. I'm struggling... the oldest is doing good, the youngest is 1st grade and I have abandoned math and science stuff to focus on reading... she's just not getting it. She learned absolutely nothing in kindergarten last year.
I went and got kindergarten workbooks from bookstore.... the online stuff for her doesn't work at all.
You are wise to focus on reading for now. The other things can be caught up later. Each child is different and learns in their own way, so kudos to you for switching from online to workbooks. Something with lots of phonics would be best. If you constantly have her “sound out” the words, she’ll be reading really well in no time! You’re doing great! If I can help in any way, feel free to let me know! 😉

Thank you the encouragement and advise :). I love reading and I want that for her too :)
You’re so welcome, my pleasure! You’ll get there, no worries! One day soon, she’ll be reading her favorite books to you! 😍
