In today’s day-in-the-life, I’m taking you along for a real homeschool day with my middle schooler as we work through 7th grade homeschool rhythms—starting with what’s actually getting done and what’s just “real life” happening in the background. I share how I like to structure our day so it feels steady but not rigid, and I show you pieces of what we’re using right now for core subjects like science, writing, and grammar. One of my favorite parts of this routine is adding in World Watch News. I love having a simple, age-appropriate way to talk about current events from a Christian worldview, and it fits really naturally into our morning flow. I also mention a few extras that round out our homeschool—like piano with Hoffman Academy and some fun breaks (because middle schoolers still need play!). If you’re homeschooling middle school and you’re craving both practical curriculum ideas and encouragement, this video is meant to feel like you’re right here with me in our home—imperfect, productive, and still really sweet.
