Homeschooling Journey

Our Homeschooling journey begins......


Meet my 5 years old little daughter named Angela nicole, our homeschool journey begins  started last August 24th of 2020. It was new for us since we are all affected by the pandemic/crisis all over the world. Its is major adjustment for us since everything done at home. 

To have a background my daughter was enrolled in a traditional school which is same school that she enrolled last year. I decided to enroll her in this school again because I believe that they gave all the best for the students to teach, mold and deliver good education. 

In addition to that it was a major adjustment for our kids and also parents just like me, a whole new wave of emotions and challenging times. There's fear of the COVID 19 pandemic, anxiety about the academic pandemic  performance, and some stress of the virtual learning just to name a few. But we are hopeful and praying to God will lead us and guide us. 





"Now they have to adapt to a new normal – because it's not really going back to school, it's going back to a new set of rules at school and parents rule too since we are the support system of our children and of course helping the teachers to have a smooth virtual/online school. 

Since we start already our Home school journey with Angela, what are the preparations we do? the adjustments and everything. 

We all know that this is a challenging one but by the grace of God we can surpass and finish this school year with success and with a  new learning and experiences. 

New homeschool year has been exciting for almost every homeschooling parents and children. Preparation might help you to prepare your new homeschool. Of course every family has its own ways to start their homeschooling year based on the unique vision, mission, value and characteristics that belong to the family. 


  1. Decluttering the old year stuff
    This first step has started our new academic year preparation. Honestly, it is very hard to start this step for us.
  2. Planning Ahead For The new Homeschool Year
    As soon as the cleaning up process finish, we start planning for the new academic year. This step has taken the longest time of the preparation process.
  3. Get Some Frugal Curriculum and Equipment
    We try hard to get the best price for our homeschooling equipment and requirement. The expensive price doesn’t guarantee that it has great qualities.
  4. Preparing Children and Parents to the New Homeschool Year
    It is quite challenging to get the kids ready for the new school year after the summer holiday. We need also to prepare the kids readiness to enter the new school year.
  5. Preparing the Classroom for the New Homeschool Year
    Although it is not always true that having a well-prepared classroom will let the learning process flow better, I think the more a classroom well prepared, the more enjoyable the learning will be. However, we need to remember that the Earth is our classroom.

Let start your homeschool new year with a much better preparation so that you and you children can get more benefits out if it. You might make some flaws in your homeschooling days, but there will always be a time to fix it by learning from the mistakes one day. Please remember that every family has its own unique life that might not be the same from each other. Therefore, don’t be afraid to make any difference.



PRAYER FOR A NEW SCHOOL YEAR

"God of wisdom and might, we praise you for the wonder of our being, for mind, body, and spirit. Be with our children as they begin a new school year. Bless them and their teachers and staff. Give them the strength and grace as their bodies grow; wisdom and knowledge to their minds as they search for understanding; and peace and zeal to their hearts. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
