Masterbooks Math: 5 Reasons We LOVE It!

Last year we made a switch from the curriculum we had been using to MasterBooks. I had heard a lot about it and the more I heard the more I felt like it would be a good fit for us. We gave it a go last year and I can tell you it was the best decision! We have loved MasterBooks and I can’t wait to tell you why!  1. The worldview. I love that the curriculum is written from a biblical worldview. Each lesson is introduced using a story to engage your child’s mind. I how the characters show kindness to one another, respect for their parents, and enthusiasm for learning. My children have loved the little story line following Charlie and Charlotte and their family and eagerly look forward to what adventures await them each week!  2. Gentle. The lessons are so very, very gentle. This is a math lesson for a day in level 2. The teacher in me struggles thinking, “they need so much more than that!” but I’ve come to see the virtue in a short, simple lesson. Here’s one of those virtues- when you’re teaching multiple children (I’ll be teaching 3 different grades to

Making a Change: Language Arts

It has taken me a significantly longer time to rally after finishing our school year. In years past I am almost bursting with ideas even before the school year ends. I make note of things I want to change, things I want to keep the same, and what ideas inspire me. However, at the end of this last year all I wanted to do was rest. I wanted to be with my children without a schedule dictating places to go or appointments to attend. I just needed a break- a little down time with no expectations. Over the last 6 weeks I have fully enjoyed our summer schedule. It wasn’t until this last weekend when I felt the familiar pangs of inspiration and anticipation of a new year. It wasn’t until I finally recognized what was holding me back that I felt inspired for the new year- I was overwhelmed. I was overwhelmed by the number of curriculum options I had. I also felt lost thinking I wasn’t sure what I would do for my son. This will be my first year teaching all 3 of my children full-time. We did a very, very gentle year of transitional kindergarten for my

Learn + PLAY Club Plans 2022-2023

We welcomed a new family member into our home on Monday and I couldn’t go without saying a big THANK YOU to YOU for making it possible. Everyday Learn + PLAY is a small side business I started a few years back in the margins of my days home with my cute crew. Tremendous growth over the recent years has been a gift more meaningful that I ever could have imagined. I started writing before my son had either of his autism or T1D diagnosis’s. The Lord knew what our future held. In His goodness and providence this little business has been an avenue for providing for therapies, medications, medical devices, and more. When we weren’t sure how the ends would meet for his care there would be a big order or a surge in subscriptions. I am forever grateful to you for your support over the years and the BLESSING you have been to us! As I begin to put together a plan for our upcoming year I am thinking of you too. Making Everyday Learn + PLAY resources accessible, convenient, and truly helpful is important to me. I’m sure you’re feeling the way our family is lately with
