Fall Video Series Ideas

I'm currently working on the Math Group 4 video series, but after that I would like to spend some time working on a series about the development of the hand for writing. This should take us through Christmas. After that, I plan to begin a series on sentence analysis in January. Here are my goals for my series on hand development:

1. I want to make some videos on the "prepared adult" for the topic of sewing and show you how to embroider and give you some resources on how to sew some things for the classroom. This is essential for anyone who is or wants to go through AMI training, so I want to make some videos supporting people who need to gain more confidence in this area. Most training centers expect you to sew, even if you've never done it before, and I want everyone to be successful in their handmade materials. I also want to encourage all of you to incorporate more sewing into your classroom and homeschool environment if you haven't done that because it is great for hand development. I will show you some of the embroidery kits I've been working on and maybe we can work through one together. I plan to show stitch samplers and help you translate that into classroom projects.

2. I will show you my series of AMI primary sewing lessons from my album (and how to adapt them for toddler age). I've worked AMI toddler and we did do sewing with them as well. The A to I training program in AMI has a lot of handmade materials that revolve around sewing, so it's something to be aware of if you are thinking about going to training. Also, Keep in mind that this section of lessons reflects my AMI training center and these lessons can look different depending on your training center.

3. I want to demonstrate using the metal insets. I will work on a booklet for the metal insets that shows you an example of each lesson and that will be posted on Locals when we start this next series.

Group 4 Math Comprehensive Video

Just for my Locals supporters, I am going to be working on a full comprehensive video of all the lessons for group 4 math that will only be available here on Locals. I will put together all the videos in one bigger video with time stamps so that you will have the entire series in one place. This will be a big project for me, and I haven't finished the series yet, so it will take a bit of time, but I will start with putting out smaller collections of videos for the time being. I'll be working on joining together all the Bead Bar videos for multiplication.

If there are any complete series videos you would like me to upload, let me know. I think I have Group 2 and 3 from math that I can do as well. I want to make sure my supporters here get a complete curriculum for each area, so please make sure to comment below and what resources you need more of and I will start working on it!

Copyright Strike on YouTube!?!?!

Apparently someone didn't like my reviews of Montessori Outlet and decided to STRIKE my channel because I didn't recommend Montessori Outlet after my experience with them (I will post links to those videos on Rumble down below so you can see them and decide for yourself if they should have a strike). These videos are 3 YEARS OLD!

I can't figure out where the copyright issue is coming from since it was all my own original work and opinions. First Amendment speech allows me to give opinions and talk about the experiences and materials I like or don't like. It's transformative in its nature. I simply showed and reviewed the materials I received and talked about how after nearly a year, I couldn't get my entire order, so out of frustration I asked for a refund (which they gave). I haven't recommended them since.

I recorded everything through OBS or my iphone 3 years ago, but for some reason this person decided to strike these videos. I have all my original work, unedited, saved and time ...

September Materials + Subtraction Diagrams

Hey Everyone!

During September I will be working on subtraction videos for Group 4 math. I will be posting diagrams for these lessons from my album so you have a visual reference of how to do these presentations.

I'm still hoping to start a book club this year for my Locals subscribers. I have The Child in The Family outlined and it is almost ready to record, but I'm waiting to see if I can get some other Montessorians to join me in my videos so that it is more of a discussion rather than just me talking.

What other resources are people needing that I might be able to share or work on for the month of September?
