New To Homeschooling

[Crystal]

Hi, I am writing searching help from everyone & anyone with advice &
etc. I am a mother to six beautiful children. I have never
homeschooled before, but my husband & I decided that it would be in
our 5 year old daughter's best interest to be homeschooled, so here I
am. Our other children attend a public school & we have our reasons
for not wanting our youngest to attend a public school, at least while
we live where we live at the time. So, I would like to talk to other's
that are in the same situation as myself, can lead me to how to start
& etc. I will take any advice that you are willing to give me. I hope
I can make friends & etc & learn a lot from other's & help other's
myself.

Thanks, Crystal

There are several books that have to do with homeschooling. I would go
to Amazon and search for "how to homeschool your child for
kindergarten". There are also sites on the net where you can print off
worksheets and such. If you live near a DollarTree, they have some good
posters that have numbers and letters on them. When my boys were that
age I hung tons of them all over the house (Livingroom, by the kitchen
table, their bedrooms, etc).

Congratulations on your decision to homeschool!  I would read, read, READ blogs and books!  Pinterest is THE BEST!  

My name is Ashley Moore, and I have 3 children- 5, 3, and 34 weeks gestation :)  I taught in a Christian school for 4 years, but then began staying home with my oldest son.  I've been homeschooling for 2 years, although this is the first year I've been using curriculum, and the first year of teaching 2.  Since you have a kindergartner yourself, maybe you can use some of the resources on my blog- Training Treasures.  I have been sharing lots of freebies, and would like to keep doing so, but only if other people are actually using my materials!  I would LOVE for you to stop by and check us out!  Maybe it will inspire you all to teach your little ones!  If you need help, please ask!  My gift and passion is in education!
