0:33
easy for a 5-year-old or six-year-old
0:36
there are so many different resources
0:37
especially with the good and the
0:38
Beautiful so just letting you know a few
0:40
tips before getting into the unit no
0:42
guess work it is all here one of the
0:45
most important decisions we as
0:47
homeschool parents have to make for our
0:49
homeschool children is what curriculum
0:51
we want to go with or if we want to just
0:53
create our own curriculum and with there
0:55
being so many different curriculum
0:57
choices out there on the market today it
0:59
can be one of the most difficult
1:00
decisions for us to make because it's
1:02
not just about what we like it's also
1:04
about what our child like what they're
1:06
going to thrive the most with as well as
1:09
was going to challenge them without
1:11
being just too difficult for them there
1:13
are so many variables that come into
1:15
play when choosing the correct
1:17
homeschool curriculum for our children
1:19
so as a homeschool mom in the community
1:22
I just want to share with you guys my
1:25
homeschool curriculum choices or anytime
1:27
we get a new homeschool curriculum I
1:29
want to share like like an unboxing
1:30
review with you guys so that we can just
1:32
help each other out and try to make this
1:35
hair thing just a little bit easier so
1:37
today I'm going to be sharing the good
1:39
in the beautiful level one first grade
1:42
curriculum unboxing and initial review
1:45
okay so let's get into the curriculum
1:47
unboxing I am going to start with
1:50
language arts of course so the language
1:52
arts and literature level one is
1:55
completely free if you want to print it
1:56
off on their website or download the PDF
1:59
file and do whatever you want with it
2:01
this time around I did not print it I
2:03
just went ahead and bought the full
2:04
package that came with the reading books
2:07
and everything so this is language
2:12
arts level one I do like the design of
2:15
it I like that it's just one book
2:17
opposed to when I printed it myself I
2:19
had to split it into like two books
2:21
there are three units in here and it is
2:23
going to cover phonics writing reading
2:26
grammar and punctuation spelling
2:28
literature and geography as well as art
2:30
as always so of course I love that all
2:33
of that is inside this one you know
2:36
language arts curriculum course as
2:38
opposed to having to go out and find
2:40
separate books for all of them of course
2:42
they do offer like geography and arts
2:44
and literature and writing books outside
2:48
of this which we did get the handwriting
2:51
book but you don't have to it's not
2:54
necessary because it is inside of this
2:55
book but it is just recommend in the
2:57
beginning it does tell you what you are
2:59
going to need as well as the items that
3:01
you're going to need for each unit that
3:03
way you don't have to be scrambling you
3:05
can get everything you need right out of
3:06
the box this course set comes with the
3:09
level one course book the reading
3:11
booster B cards and the reader booster B
3:13
set and I'll show you guys that it also
3:15
comes with the two free apps which is
3:17
the letter tows app and the good and the
3:18
Beautiful homeschool app those are
3:20
things that you are definitely going to
3:21
need alongside this curriculum unless
3:23
you want to find ways to um you know use
3:26
manipulatives and incorporate the things
3:28
that the apps teaches on your own which
3:31
of course even still you want to have
3:32
some Hands-On manipulatives and puzzles
3:35
and things like that to keep things fun
3:37
and engaging because these are just
3:38
mostly just the workbook things that
3:40
they tell you to always have on hand is
3:42
a pencil scissors a glue stick tape
3:45
crayons color pencils highlighter
3:47
several sheets of blank light paper a
3:49
white board and a dry erase marker so
3:52
these are things that you just are going
3:53
to be needing for the full curriculum
3:55
you always want to have on hand but then
3:57
extra items needed for unit one are
3:59
cotton SWAT CS index cards optional
4:01
items for poetry party which they go
4:04
more in depth about on page 29 cotton
4:06
balls poster paint watercolors
4:08
paintbrush craft knife and a small
4:11
bowler cup so things that you probably
4:13
already have around the house anyway F
4:15
supped to like the poster paint the
4:17
watercolors or whatever everything else
4:19
you probably already have for unit two
4:22
some of the same things so the paints
4:25
the cuton swabs 13 index cards a coin a
4:29
of any type some Sal a spatula which is
4:32
optional and a word processing program
4:35
like word or Google Docs and for unit 3
4:37
the paint again optional sticky notes
4:40
the word processing program and a
4:42
stapler so I wonder if they're going to
4:44
be typing in this course I'm very
4:46
interested in knowing why they need that
4:47
word processing so these are all the
4:49
things that you need so very
4:52
straightforward not a ton of things that
4:54
you have to go out and purchase they
4:56
have some suggested coordinated readers
4:58
here and it's my first nature reader my
5:01
second nature reader as well as my third
5:03
re nature reader and then they also have
5:05
the Africa readers as well which I'm
5:06
going to show you guys these are the
5:08
books here that they are recommending
5:10
and I do love these books it has 20
5:13
beautiful short stories that coincide
5:16
with the curriculum inside of each book
5:19
and my son did really well with those
5:22
last time there are 120 lessons and it
5:26
is split up into 40 lessons for each
5:29
unit so 40 for unit 1 40 for unit 2 and
5:33
then another 40 for unit 3 so in case
5:35
you want to like study the curriculum
5:37
before you begin it does tell you
5:39
everything that is going to be going
5:40
over so for instance the very first
5:43
lesson is going to go over long and
5:44
short vowels the second lesson is going
5:46
to review the letters e e and the sound
5:49
that they make and when you would use
5:50
them how to read them in a Word lesson
5:53
three will be introduction to unit one
5:56
spelling words lesson four will be s CH
6:00
and th review so if it says review then
6:03
that just means that these are things
6:05
that were already introduced inside of
6:07
the kindergarten level so if you did not
6:09
have the good and the Beautiful for the
6:10
kindergarten level then there's a chance
6:13
that you may not have reviewed it but I
6:15
can say that this is also in like other
6:17
curriculums so for instance we also did
6:19
The Horizon's kindergarten and all of
6:22
this was mentioned in that kindergarten
6:24
curriculum so it would still kind of
6:26
just be reviewed for us we did the good
6:29
and the Beautiful kindergarten
6:30
curriculum and The Horizon's half of
6:32
their kindergarten curriculum just
6:33
basically a sequence or scope of what
6:35
you can expect for each lesson so that
6:38
if for instance sometimes I like to pull
6:41
up like a fun video or find a fun game
6:43
or manipulative to go along with it you
6:45
know that you would want to do it so for
6:47
instance lessons one and two which is
6:48
Lan short vowels and E review you can
6:51
find like a fun video to introduce that
6:53
before you get into the lesson with your
6:55
kid and then for lesson three where it
6:56
says introduction to unit one spelling
6:58
words you can find a fun game for the
7:00
spelling words we have like a fishing
7:02
game it has a ton of different site
7:04
words we would use that for lesson
7:07
number five where it has the different
7:08
site words whatever site words they
7:10
start with here we're going to put those
7:12
site words like on the little fish I'll
7:14
have to show you guys that came too you
7:16
put them inside like a little bowl and
7:18
then let your kid fish out each site
7:20
word and read them to you and then for
7:22
the spelling words same thing we have
7:25
like a little game with all of the
7:27
different letters where you can use like
7:29
the the wooden letters to build
7:30
different types of words different ways
7:32
that you can incorporate other
7:34
manipulatives to go along with it and if
7:37
you look at like for instance the first
7:39
five lessons that you'll be doing the
7:40
first five weeks you can go ahead and
7:43
map out a plan for yourself for that
7:45
week so I love that about this
7:47
curriculum so that you're not putting a
7:48
lot of guess work in it and you don't
7:50
necessarily have to like read every
7:52
single lesson if you don't want to you
7:54
can kind of know what it's going to be
7:56
about immediately it even tells you what
7:59
what the booster cards are going to be
8:02
about to correlate with the book it has
8:04
spelling words for each unit already
8:07
listed for you so that you know the
8:09
words that they are going to be doing
8:11
and then they also have some high
8:12
frequency spelling words that they
8:14
expect you to know before you even get
8:17
started it tells you typically what the
8:18
scope and sequence is for levels
8:21
kindergarten first and second grade I a
8:25
he she we me the you go and or so those
8:29
are spelling words your child should
8:31
have already been able to spell before
8:33
beginning this curriculum so those are
8:35
things you can work on with them before
8:37
you start the curriculum everything is
8:39
basically in the beginning of the book
8:40
to prepare you and get you ready there's
8:43
also a short little like maybe four
8:46
sentences in here that they want your
8:48
child to be able to read before you get
8:55
started it says there are many sheep on
8:57
the top of the hill are they flying no
9:00
they all stay and Munch The Fresh grass
9:03
it sits on a rock by them and sing about
9:06
five sentences pretty easy and this is
9:08
something you will work on with your
9:09
child and have them Master before they
9:11
begin the course unless they've already
9:13
mastered it as well as a few spelling
9:15
words so for unit one the spelling words
9:17
that they will be going over is love
9:20
know her are of so B do look and put 10
9:24
words for unit one so not so shabby unit
9:29
one is 40 lessons so that gives you a
9:31
pretty good amount of time within the
9:33
lessons to be able to master and work on
9:35
those spelling words it also tells you
9:36
the booster cards you're going to be
9:37
working through which is cards 1 through
9:39
17 as well as the principles that's
9:42
going to be taught the lessons so far
9:45
are pretty they're beautiful they look
9:48
fun they look straightforward they're
9:51
all things that I'm noticing like
9:53
initially from looking through and
9:55
flipping through there are like some fun
9:57
activities in here to do with the
9:58
worksheet like things that you have to
10:00
cut out and glue or things that you have
10:02
to make like out of the paper words that
10:04
you have to form charts each lesson
10:07
isn't anything more than three pages
10:09
long front back and then front so really
10:12
like two pages is what I'm seeing I also
10:15
look further back into the curriculum so
10:17
let's see unit 2 lesson 41 is still only
10:22
no more than two pages long I like that
10:25
type of consistency inside of a
10:28
curriculum where you know like how long
10:31
each lesson might be as opposed to you
10:34
you're used to doing two pages a day and
10:36
then all of a sudden you get to a day
10:39
you wake up and you open it up and it
10:40
was like five pages out of nowhere and
10:42
you're like where did that come from so
10:44
no some of these are only one page but I
10:46
haven't seen anything more than like two
10:48
pages front and back or just one page
10:51
front and back and then just the front
10:52
of another page so not too long very
10:55
easy for a 5-year-old or six-year-old to
10:58
be able to find follow along with does
11:01
have a geometry crossw word puzzles a
11:04
lot of art very beautiful poetry so
11:06
that's one thing about the good and the
11:08
Beautiful like I know a lot of people
11:09
aren't into maybe like the literature
11:11
poetry and art and things like that but
11:14
the good and the Beautiful is very heavy
11:16
on that so if that is something you know
11:19
that's like a make a break for you I
11:21
think that's something to really keep in
11:22
mind I know a lot of people were saying
11:23
that for them that was just fluff they
11:25
just wanted to get right into the
11:27
lessons we did the Risin curriculum over
11:31
the summer and I think I missed some of
11:33
that fluff it made the curriculum kind
11:35
of boring nothing to really engage the
11:38
child and talk about other you know
11:41
Concepts and really pick their brain as
11:44
spark some creativity within each lesson
11:46
so I kind of love that about the getting
11:48
the beautiful of course as we get more
11:49
into the curriculum I'm going to do a
11:51
more in-depth review I'm thinking I'm
11:53
going to do a unit one review a unit two
11:56
review and then a unit three review so
11:58
every time we finish a a unit will do
12:00
like a full review but now I'm kind of
12:02
just like giving you guys not a full
12:04
flip through just showing you guys you
12:06
know some of the picture name that
12:08
kitten you can name the
12:10
kittens um some
12:13
geography I think it's very much
12:15
recommended to get a globe you don't
12:17
have to but to have that would be cool
12:21
they have like the blowup ones at the
12:22
dollar store you can just get one from
12:24
Walmart for like $10 or Amazon fill in
12:27
the blanks are put in
12:29
just three words you can fill in the
12:31
blanks I blank the cake on your plate
12:34
put the plate we blank our feet in the
12:36
lake H so I mean
12:40
obviously I love this curriculum that is
12:42
the reason why I chose it here is the
12:46
reading booster B cards that go along
12:49
with the language arts
12:54
course tells you how to use the cards
12:58
and it tells you what to Master before
13:00
you start the course site words that you
13:03
need to master again you can print this
13:05
stuff off for free on their site I
13:07
printed off this page as well as the
13:09
story that was required to be mastered
13:12
ahead of time so that we can go over
13:13
before we get into the course before I
13:16
even like purchased it and then it just
13:18
Dives right on in so site work practice
13:21
reading practice all of the things and
13:24
again it coincides with the lessons so
13:26
for instance at the beginning they'll
13:27
tell you how to teacha right write e r
13:29
on the Whiteboard and read to the child
13:31
e and r together make the sound r as in
13:34
her have the child tap the letters r on
13:37
the Whiteboard and say ER several times
13:40
so again it tells you how to teach these
13:42
to them and it has even more ways at the
13:44
bottom that they suggest you can do
13:46
pretty straightforward as far as
13:47
teaching it goes I these little mastered
13:49
circles at the bottom because it does
13:51
come with stickers in the back that you
13:53
can use every time they mastered my son
13:55
loves being able to put a new sticker on
13:57
his mastered cards and then at the back
13:59
it does have the completion card for you
14:02
here's the books that go along with it
14:04
I'm pretty sure it's about 20 books in
14:06
hand that correlate with the booster
14:09
cards and the course lesson 20 easy to
14:14
hold books for the little ones the pages
14:16
are a little bit silky I can say but
14:21
just a couple of lines on each page so
14:23
this one just has like one line
14:29
pictures for reference just a couple of
14:31
pages like five pages and then let's say
14:34
book
14:37
20 still a couple of pages but it does
14:40
have a few more sentence lines so again
14:44
it comes with all of these books if you
14:46
want to download them and save them to
14:48
your Kindle app you can go that route or
14:50
to your child's tablet um but I do love
14:53
that it comes with these you do not have
14:55
to purchase these separate it comes with
14:57
the curriculum as well as the math Bo
14:59
black comes with the math curriculum but
15:00
this is the my first Africa reader which
15:03
coincided with the kindergarten
15:05
curriculum but we did the my first
15:07
nature reader not the my first Africa
15:09
reader so we're still in the first
15:11
Africa reader I should have got the
15:12
second one but I did get the second
15:14
nature reader so here
15:19
is
15:21
ax it's can get wet mud mud mud an ax
15:26
can fit it got mud on a mat bad Ox so
15:30
this is from the kindergarten curriculum
15:33
by the end they were saying they need
15:35
grass and
15:37
he this sheep has a
15:41
weed we keep them in a big pen so that's
15:46
kindergarten and then this is the second
15:49
nature reader so this is coinciding with
15:52
the first grade curriculum some bark is
15:55
hard some bark is soft and can peel so
16:00
definitely a difference here look at the
16:02
bark on this tar tree it is red so
16:05
sounds like e e and all and R like bark
16:10
marks I'm I can already tell that this
16:12
is going to coincide with every lesson
16:14
teaches the a r sound so again very
16:18
beautiful stories for your little one to
16:20
read so this is the nature reader and
16:22
this is the Africa reader here is the
16:25
level one
16:27
handwriting show you guys how thick it
16:29
is 103 pages I feel like this is going
16:32
to be pretty straightforward for him it
16:34
does come with a handwriting chart that
16:37
you can you know make a copy of and put
16:39
it up on like your bullet film board or
16:41
inside your kids homeschool binder form
16:44
drawing writing their first name writing
16:46
letters and numbers tracing and writing
16:48
words and sentences and drawing for
16:50
section one and it is in 60 point F not
16:53
you know too big not too small it looks
16:56
like the first few pages there are no
16:58
sentence right
16:59
just tracing and writing like letters
17:02
and patterns and redrawing certain
17:04
pictures like it might have a picture of
17:06
a pyramid and say you redraw the picture
17:09
that you see It'll say draw a picture of
17:11
your own choice it'll say color
17:13
Something Draw Something sentence
17:15
writing like later on inside of you need
17:17
one one where it'll say my name is and
17:19
then you'll basically Trace that and
17:21
then write your name below so it has
17:23
very very little like biblical Concepts
17:26
inside of here not really a lot in case
17:29
that's a make or break for you we always
17:31
have to do a Bible curriculum alongside
17:34
our good and the Beautiful curriculum
17:36
because there's not a whole lot of it in
17:38
here is okay with us he has Sunday
17:41
school on Sundays and then again before
17:43
every lesson we'll just like read a
17:45
short like you know Bible story from his
17:48
Bible Story Reader and then he also has
17:50
like a little workbook that goes along
17:52
with that where he can color something
17:53
to coincide with that Bible Story Reader
17:55
but it does have you know some
17:57
references to to God in the Bible inside
18:00
of here but very very minimal the things
18:03
that they're going to be writing for
18:04
instance they're going to be writing a
18:07
sentence from Luke 21:36 and it just
18:10
says pray always Jesus said come follow
18:13
me Luke 1822 so you can use this as like
18:17
Bible verse memorization if you want to
18:20
it says God me trees um so it definitely
18:23
has some Biblical reference in here it
18:25
also has some mannerism in here you're
18:27
going to trace the question may I help
18:30
Mom different you know Concepts I think
18:33
that is another thing that I love about
18:34
the good and the Beautiful is that
18:36
they're very intentional about the
18:39
things that they put in here so like yes
18:41
they create the whole curriculum
18:43
intentionally but also like the words
18:46
they putting there the sentence choice
18:48
that they use is also very intentional
18:50
in terms of like trying to teach your
18:53
child something from the Bible or
18:54
teachers child something like as far as
18:57
mannerism go and at home you could do
19:00
one per day and still finish this before
19:02
you even finish at the language arts
19:03
curriculum so there's that serve with a
19:07
smile God gave us the
19:11
sun color the
19:13
picture may I help Mom and draw a
19:18
picture Jesus said come follow me I love
19:21
my home God
19:23
matri now we're going to look at the
19:26
Simply Good and beautiful math level one
19:30
beautiful course book as
19:32
always show you guys the size of it
19:34
there are
19:36
118 lessons so two lessons shy of the
19:40
language arts course also no more than
19:42
two pages so the front of one page and
19:45
then the second page front and back you
19:47
could just do this along sided one math
19:50
lesson a day as well as one language
19:52
arts lesson per day the first page of
19:54
the math is usually you introducing what
19:58
the lesson for the day is going to be
20:00
about and giving examples for it and
20:02
things like that and then the second
20:04
page which is the one they do front and
20:06
back is usually them you know actually
20:08
implementing the lesson that you taught
20:11
so that's another thing that I really
20:13
love about it is that that allows you to
20:16
basically spend you know the beginning
20:18
of the lesson you stand up you go over
20:20
with your child and then you know that
20:22
they have it and then you're going to
20:23
allow them to do that by themselves and
20:25
just ask for help if they need help so I
20:27
love that about of course it has the
20:29
table of contents let you know what's
20:31
inside unit one unit 2 and unit 3 and
20:34
just like the language arts course I am
20:36
going to do a review of each unit as we
20:39
complete each unit some of the things
20:41
lesson one identifying right and left
20:45
very simple for a five or six year old
20:48
lesson two writing numbers 1 through
20:50
five lesson three months of the year and
20:53
some writing numbers 6 through 9 Lesson
20:56
Four time to the hour and half hour
20:59
lesson five is place value lesson six is
21:01
adding so adding on two so I'm guessing
21:05
adding on two numbers so by the end of
21:08
unit one we're looking at place value
21:11
pennies nickel and dimes doubles
21:13
addition and shape writing sents to 25
21:16
writing numbers to 40 addition stories
21:19
pairs counting on calendars so it kind
21:22
of looks like unit one covers a lot of
21:27
the math from kindergarten
21:29
so it's going to be reviewing a lot of
21:30
the things that you learned in
21:31
kindergarten unit 2 seems to be doing
21:34
the same but introducing a lot of newer
21:36
things and then unit 3 a lot of newer
21:39
things as well by the end of unit 3
21:41
they're going to be doing volume
21:43
calendar practice addition practice even
21:45
and odd measuring subtraction take away
21:48
from 10 seconds in a minute minutes in
21:51
an hour hour in a day symmetry grouping
21:54
by 10 measuring to the nearest inch how
21:57
to make a do writing 10 11 and 12 adding
22:02
10 to a number very little of what was
22:05
introduced in the kindergarten and a lot
22:07
of new Concepts so my guess is that unit
22:10
3 is going to introduce a lot of new
22:12
Concepts that are going to be continued
22:14
in the second grade math so of course it
22:17
comes with the hundreds chart for you to
22:19
be able to print off you can just use
22:21
this one or you can make a copy and
22:23
print it however you want to do it I
22:25
like to always just make a copy and
22:26
print it if we don't already have one up
22:28
on the wall very little supplies that
22:30
you're going to need basically you are
22:31
just going to need this course book the
22:33
math one box give you it you don't have
22:36
to purchase anything you're going to
22:38
need a pencil crayons or colored pencils
22:42
a whiteboard and a dry erase Markle very
22:45
easy things that you already probably
22:47
have on hand you can get like a dry
22:49
erase whiteboard from the dollar store
22:51
for a dollar or you can get like a even
22:54
larger run from Walmart for about $10
22:57
they have them there's a little purple
23:00
box right at the top of the lessons and
23:02
this is apparently a review box that
23:04
reviews Concepts that have already been
23:07
you know introduced and this here purple
23:09
box right here is what is the review box
23:11
so you can do it or choose to skip it
23:13
and one depending on if the child has
23:15
mastered it so that's good that they
23:17
give you that chance for you know review
23:20
how I said like a lot of from the unit
23:22
is things that you've already learned in
23:24
kindergarten and then some of it are
23:26
introducing New Concepts so I'm seeing
23:28
that that's probably what the review is
23:30
about and what was just mentioned inside
23:33
of like the table of content say that if
23:35
your child takes longer than 15 to 20
23:38
minutes per lesson but it's
23:39
understanding and returning the
23:40
information don't worry but most lessons
23:43
should take 15 to 20 minutes for first
23:46
grade that is not bad at all with this
23:48
in the language arts and handwriting you
23:50
could probably finish up just the book
23:52
work within an hour and then within like
23:55
another 30 minutes to an hour do Story
23:57
Time play manipulatives and games and
23:59
things like that however you want to do
24:01
your homeschool day if they're doing it
24:03
in less than 15 minutes to 20 minutes
24:06
prayer lesson and they seem to know the
24:08
information maybe have them take an
24:10
assessment to see if they can skip any
24:13
unit or the whole course if your child
24:16
takes less than 15 to 20 minutes and is
24:19
still learning new things then do not
24:21
move on to math too but do multiple
24:24
lessons a day so that's typically how we
24:26
would do it anyway a SP curriculum which
24:29
means they are constantly reviewing
24:31
Concepts that your child has learned to
24:33
ensure that he or she understands and
24:35
retains the information they do not
24:37
teach doctrines specific to any
24:39
particular Christian denomination but to
24:42
teach general principles such as honesty
24:44
hard work and kindness and all Bible
24:47
references are from the King James
24:49
version there is an answer key on the
24:52
website if you needed for this math
24:54
course you can download an answer key if
24:56
you're new to Hom School these
24:58
curriculums give you everything that you
25:00
need like literally everything um you
25:02
just read it straight out of the book or
25:04
you read it beforehand so that you know
25:06
how to teach it to them you download
25:08
things from the website there are so
25:09
many different resources especially with
25:11
the good and the Beautiful that will
25:13
help you to get through this so again
25:15
it'll tell you at the beginning of each
25:16
unit like different things that are
25:18
going to be taught it says unit one
25:20
there are no extra supplies that's going
25:22
to be needed it gives you tips and the
25:25
course refers to optional videos that
25:27
are on the YouTube YouTube channel so
25:29
just letting you know a few tips before
25:31
getting into the unit it does go over
25:33
addition strategies calendar days of the
25:35
week months of the year writing the DAT
25:37
yesterday tomorrow last week next week
25:39
collect and short data colors comparison
25:43
left and right like it gives you the
25:45
full rundown no guess work it is all
25:48
here gives you you know everything you
25:50
need to go ahead and transfer to your
25:52
home school planner very beautiful
25:54
curriculum is always colorful
25:59
some activities in here to do some
26:03
little games to
26:09
play I think it keeps it very fun and
26:11
engaging for the little ones so
26:15
initially out of the box I'm loving the
26:18
curriculum so far and I really cannot
26:20
wait to dive in so here is the course
26:25
assessment everything that they expect
26:27
you to I have mastered this is
26:30
additional practice at the end of each
26:31
assessment so this is basically the same
26:34
concept so if they get it wrong appear
26:36
then they have the chance to redeem
26:38
themselves down here so love
26:46
that this is just like the cardboard
26:48
clock and some cardboard coins bolts and
26:54
clocks and the
26:57
dice if you don't want to go with this
26:59
cardboard clock you can get one from
27:01
like Melissa and Doug Target or whatever
27:03
we have one um that we purchased last
27:07
year comes with that and then we also
27:08
found a really nice coin set on Amazon
27:11
learning resources actually has one
27:14
right now on sale from Target they have
27:16
the clock and the money on sale at
27:19
Target right now for just $10 I just
27:21
noticed that so you can get that if you
27:23
don't want to go up the cardboard once
27:25
but you really don't have to the point
27:27
is that you shouldn't have to get
27:28
anything else if you you know that
27:30
you're going to need so they provide you
27:32
with pretty much what you need if you
27:34
have a preference and you of course can
27:36
go ahead and you know get your preferred
27:39
manipulative sorry my son was so loud
27:42
it's like he was just throwing blocks
27:43
inside of a container but yeah the good
27:46
and the Beautiful makes it so easy so
27:50
simple the curriculum is good and it is
27:52
beautiful I'm very interested to dive in
27:56
so that is my initial review and again
27:59
like I mentioned I'm going to go further
28:01
in depth and review as we complete each
28:03
unit all right you guys with that we Su
28:05

28:10
