About This Video

In this mid-year homeschool evaluation, I’m sharing an honest look at what’s working in our home, what’s not, and what I’m changing for the second semester. Mid-year is when I like to pause and ask a few simple questions: Are my kids actually learning? Are we drowning in busywork? And is what we’re doing sustainable for a homeschool mom of six? I walk through the areas that felt smooth, the spots that got clunky, and how I decide whether to tweak a curriculum, replace it, or just adjust my routine. I also share some of the new (and continuing) resources we’re using—things like science and math options, writing support, life skills, and a few add-ons that make our days feel more well-rounded. If you’re feeling behind or second-guessing everything, I want this to be your reminder that a mid-year reset isn’t failure—it’s wisdom. I’m always aiming for simple, doable, and rooted in biblical encouragement for the everyday moments, and I hope this helps you evaluate your homeschool with clarity and a little more peace.
