Homeschool Better Together

YMB #137 Creating a Rich Curriculum with Rachel Monreal


Listen Later

In today's episode, we examine the world of morning time and its incredible potential for young learners. We'll be joined by Rachel Monreal, a homeschooling mom who has discovered the magic of morning time and how it has transformed her homeschooling journey with her preschool and elementary-aged kids.

We'll explore Rachel's journey through the challenges of homeschooling young children, finding balance amidst the pressures of traditional education, and rediscovering the joy of learning for both parent and child. Rachel will share her insights on including toddlers in morning time, adapting curriculum, and ultimately creating a structured plan that aligns with her family's core values.

Rachel shares her practical tips for implementing morning time, her favorite resources from our "Little Explorers Plan," and how she manages to prioritize consistency in her educational routine. Let's dive in!

Key Takeaways:

  • Morning time can be a rich and enjoyable educational experience for preschoolers.
  • Morning time provides an opportunity to align education with core values, such as faith, family relationships, language learning, and skill development.
  • Consistency is key for a successful educational routine, and creating a structured plan can help achieve this.
  • The "morning basket" or "morning time" approach in homeschooling can bring joy, closer relationships, and less stress to the learning experience.
  • Morning time can be adapted to fit the needs and ages of children in a flexible and adaptable manner.
