How I Am Staying Orgainized This Homeschool Year

This is our second year homeschooling. Last year, I was pretty organized but I wanted to be more organized to help us stay on track. 

We are doing Build Your Library: Level 5. Thankfully, it is pretty much all laid out for us.We are also using Teaching Textbooks and Winning with Writing.  (None of these links are affiliate links.) 

I wanted to have everything we were doing written out and in one place for the week. Scattered Squirrel has these printable and so many other amazing ones for free. Each month, I print out 4 and write down the month, 3 hole punch it, and add it to our binder. 



After we finish a lesson, my son will go over with a highlighter on the completed assignment. We are on week 2 but we moved a head on Child of the Longhouse because he couldn't put it down. He enjoyed that story. 

This is just a small way that is helping us stay on track and organized. I plan on sharing more organization tips in the future. 

Question of the Day: Would you be interested in my son and I reviewing the books he read. I believe it would be fun way to share the child's and parent's view point. Please let me know in the comments.

Good Afternoon Everyone,

I decided to not share the recipes I have already done on the blog.

However, you can follow me on Instagram to see the ones I have already done! 

Here are some of  the recipes that I have already done. I will start to share new ones in the future. 




First Year of Homeschooling -- Completed

This was our first year homeschooling. I have wanted to home school from the beginning but it wasn't in the cards. Finally, we were able to start. This year we experiences some learning curves that I want to dive in a separate blog post about. Throughout the blog, I want to share curriculum that we use, tips, projects, and any challenges that we face. 

This is just an introduction post, I am still trying to get a hang of all this.


About Me -- First Blog Post

Welcome to With the Sutton's. My name is Victoria. I wanted to create a blog for a while now and I am finally taking the leap! 


I am a mom to two boys. We are a homeschooling family. This is only our first year into this journey and I am beyond happy that we joined this community. 





My plan for this blog is to cook my way through every cookbook I own. I will share my feelings on every recipe, I have tried. I am currently cooking my way through Cravings by Chrissy Teigen. My oldest son and I are two of the pickiest eaters I know. I know by the end of this experiment we will have tried more food than we normally would and will be way less picky. I will share my homeschooling experience and overall I will embrace the online community in sharing my everyday life. 

I look forward to getting to know you and hope you stick around. 

Coming soon: An Instagram Page!
