 Hi you guys, my name is Brittany and welcome back to my YouTube channel. You guys in today's video, I am finally going to be prepping and setting up my homeschool room for the 2023-2024 homeschooling year. I am so excited about this upcoming homeschool year, but first I really have to get things in order in my homeschool room. So I am going to go ahead and start off with organizing all of my homeschool supplies and you guys. I know I have a lot of homeschooling supplies and I really have to give a huge thanks to my mom because she has purchased all of these homeschool supplies and she has contributed to our homeschool. I am fully stocked you guys. I definitely know I have enough school supplies to last me for properly this year and a little bit beyond. So I'm so grateful for my mom for dragging me to the store and you know catching all the sales. So yeah I'm going to share with you guys all the things that we purchased from Target and from Dollar Tree. So you guys I got new paint markers, thin markers for my oldest. I have some organization supplies for my homeschool mom desk, color pencils, crayons, mechanical pencils for my oldest and some organization for all of our homeschool supplies, composition notebooks, a new dry eraser, glue and scissors and some big pencils and erasers for my younger two. So this right here is the little caddy or basket that I have at the top of my homeschool closet that I keep all of my school supplies. If you guys see me declutter you would have seen some of the supplies I had left over from last year and you guys this basket was filled to the rim when I got finished putting all of the extra homeschooling supplies in it. I could barely lift it in my homeschool closet but I'm so happy to be like fully stocked and I'm so grateful for my mom you guys. Okay you guys now for the fun part. We are working on my homeschooling cart and this cart I primarily used for my oldest daughter who is entering in the sixth grade you guys. So I'm going to go ahead and organize all of her curriculum on this cart. I typically like to organize it per subject and as you guys can see these are the same file folds or what magazine holds that we used last year so they do have some love and I know eventually I'm going to have to get some new ones but for right now they will do so as far as my younger kiddos I do organize their curriculum and supplies a little bit different and you guys will see that a little bit later. I like to keep their stuff on a go as much as I love my homeschool room you guys to really be honest my oldest daughter uses this room way more than I expected it at this point I do do one-on-one like reading instructions and lessons with my younger kiddos in the room but other than that you guys we really work around the house so I love having my oldest daughter's curriculum portable so when we are downstairs we're able to kind of just like do our schooling on a go. So these are the trays that I do use for my younger kiddos where I put all of their curriculum in. Right now I'm just getting all of my kindergarteners all about reading next lessons all prepared in her tray and as for like my preschooler I'm getting all of her like gentle and classical preschool, preschool math at home and all of her cards and CVC work cards in her tray as well. These are just some extra activities and coloring books that you guys I pick up from the Dollar Tree all the time, scissors skills just to always have extra activities on hands for my two younger ones with busy hands. So you guys a new school year is not a new school year without a library hall so this is my library hall that I picked up for my kindergartener and my pre-care. As far as Brie Algo's I already had books and independent readers on the shelf for her purchase so I didn't check out anything from the library for her just yet so I'm so excited you guys to read all these cute kindergarten books and I can't wait to come back with you guys with our favorites that we've read and starting off kindergarten. I know there's not a lot of books out there that really depicts like homeschooling families however I didn't mind still reading and getting my daughter excited about kindergarten. So this right here this first caddy that I'm working on is actually my two younger ones caddy that they're going to be using. I have found that having all of my supplies out and in this caddy it's been so helpful instead of using the school boxes that I did last year so we are really really enjoying this caddy with all of their supplies now as far as my daughter she has this cute little basket that I put all of her homeschooling supplies her color pencils and her erasable pens and things like that. So you guys now I officially have a clean table and I can get it all set up for our first day of school. So now that I have my table all ready to go for our first day of school I do want to organize one more thing which is like my teacher's area and I really like having at least these first couple of drawers organized before starting our homeschooling year. I like to keep the back stock of any supplies that I need all of like my favorite pens and my staplers my extra expo markers all of those things I like to have organized in like my teacher's station so they're just really readily accessible to us now you guys these last three drawers and this little um Alexa system from Ikea you guys they look crazy I really should have showed them to you guys but um at least the first top two ones are all ready to go and that's all that matters for right now. Okay you guys this is actually my first time actually putting together an official art cart all of these little um like what is this these little clear bins I used to just keep underneath of like my kitchen uh cabinets and just pull them out whenever it's time for us to do like art and messy art but I found that things just always was like messy chaos and since I have this extra homeschooling card that I'm not using I decided to make like an official like art cart and you know I feel like all big and bad you guys this homeschooling year but I just keep like all of like my watercolors my construction paper most of these things on this art cart really came from the Dollar Tree and five below so um I really was able to like get all these things slowly affordably for us um now and with an exception of things like my dot markers and things like that of course I didn't get those ones from like the Dollar Tree but I really love all having like all of my things all together and when it's time for us to do art you guys I just pull this baby out and it's been so convenient so I love it so you guys with the start of every new school year I always get a three ring binder in order for me to keep all of my homeschooling records in a lot of you guys ask questions about how I start my binder and what I do is I go ahead and I put in my Georgia declaration of intent form in here and I put in sheet protectors each one of the subjects we're going to be hovering for our school year so as you guys can see since we started off math I already have some math tests in here that I need to hold punch and store and you guys I still put stickers on my sixth graders math assignments and all of her tests just to let her know she did a good job I'm always going to put a sticker on those things you guys but as far as like my record keeping portfolio I just like to go ahead and started off again with each of the curriculum pieces that I'm going to be using and with a table of contents so I am able to show the growth and the progression of what each of my kiddos actually learned now as you guys will see in my oldest orders portfolio she of course has more I guess a section than you will see in my kindergartner I have started off with our core and then right here you're kind of seeing like all of our supplemental things that I want to do some literature guides I want to touch on and then towards the back I do have like our music and then I have her extra certificates that I'm going to give her when she finishes each unit in her piano now as far as my kindergartner again hers is going to be really really simple I just really have all of her math her phonics instructions that we're going to be using and hers is pretty big just so I can keep all of her artwork in it okay you guys before I leave you I have to show you how our homeschooling cart is looking for this homeschooling year this first section right here is where I'm keeping all of my oak metals teacher guides in it and one thing I love about having all my things together is that I can pull out this magazine file and take it to my desk whenever I'm doing like my planning I do have my younger daughter's math you see primer in here because sometimes we do that when we're downstairs I have all of our new schoolness notebooks uh that we will be using for our ancient history and for our science the other schoolness notebooks the vocabulary and the history timelines are actually ones from our previous school year which is so awesome you know I get to reuse them again I have like our word roots our oak metals English so like all of her English categories is all in one foul fold of course her favorite you guys rod and staff building English series I have her math which is the first subject that my daughter does every single day and of course her planner that we made for her on this second shelf I am keeping all of her like math you see manipulatives in it and I also have my planner right here on the second shelf along with this flex binder that I have extra sheets of paper that she uses when she's doing her reports and at the bottom I have all of her dry erase um boards and I keep her school supplies down there as well now this is actually like my preschool little bookshelf that I have for my younger kiddos I have like their handwriting without tears chalk and in these mesh folds are like all different like games and things I have collected over the years to be able to like pull out with them and keep those little busy hands busy this is our morning basket you guys and it really hasn't changed much from the last video that I showed you I have our hymn study in here I have our singa song of seasons our bible and my speaker you guys I use this thing so much in our home school I love having this portable speaker you guys so as far as our table I have the bookmarks that me and my daughter are going to be making in each of the kiddos first day of school signs and I do want them to fill out this all about me page that was able to print off free from Pinterest this is actually my first year doing like this all about me page and I really want to keep it for myself as like a keepsake um to see kind of like where they were at at this exact moment in time so you guys this is it my home school room it's like already in prepared to go my teacher station is all clean you guys and I'm ready to go ahead and continue starting off like my planning and prepping and have everything ready to go but um you guys this is it I'm ready for our home school year I am nervous but I am going into this year you guys with my cup filled and knowing that God he's going to provide the rest in our home school and I'm just going to stand still and watch so you guys as always I
