(Looking for Podcast Suggestions to Supplement Your Homeschooling or Classroom Curriculum? Say Less! Check Out This Post Filled With Educational Podcast Recommendations.)

MELANATED AND WELL-EDUCATED

New and Confused Homeschool Families Start Here! Talk about user-friendly. This channel is the perfect go-to site, especially for new homeschooling families.

The presenter, Erica, is well-informed and speaks with the benefit of first hand experience. She also podcasts, blogs, and vlogs (or something like that 😃) so you can consume her content in various ways.

ThisBrownTeacher's Hot Take: It's a GO for Me.

These videos are clean! The recording and formatting is so well done. And getting insight from someone who's actually DOING what you're doing ... well, well, well ... you gotta love it when a great plan comes together.

CRASH COURSE

Crash Course is a YouTube channel filled with science, social science, and historical content presented in fun, usually a mix of real people and animated clips.

Agreeing that the site is witty and fast-paced, CommonSense.org and other commenters are seemingly thrown off by the word 'course' in the channels moniker. CommonSense.org gives Crash Course a rating of 3 out 5 stars, deciding that anything labeled a "course" should be interactive and offer opportunities for students to "engage" with the content - something they claim Crash Course does not necessarily do.

ThisBrownTeacher's Hot Take: Check it out. 👍🏾

Sometimes a video is just that ... a video. And most homeschooling or traditional school teachers will add their own spin on information curated from the internet regardless. The content is better suited toward older learners and families should preview the content first to ensure that all topic matter is copacetic.

THE HANDMADE HOMESCHOOLER

With shoutouts to the "Homeschool Haters" (facts 😉) and videos titled THINGS I WON'T DO AS A HOMESCHOOL MOM and 6 THINGS I DON'T DO AS A HOMESCHOOL MOM, you know you are about to get the real-deal-truth-ruth when it comes to homeschooling. Mandy's channel -THE HANDMADE HOMESCHOOLER- is truly an internet fav. Plus, she runs a free Facebook Group and, even though I, personally, don't rock with a whole bunch of extraneous and miscellaneous purchases and fees related to homeschooling, if you need some early guidance, this channel has curriculum and other resources for preschool and upper grades at the ready.

ThisBrownTeacher's Hot Take: Yes, Please! 💯

Besides the cute, little YouTube Shorts she does, as a classroom teacher, I REALLY appreciate The Handmade Homeschooler's approach to HS prep and organization. She seems to backwards plan and Year-At-A-Glance prep like the most veteran of school teachers. Her content is interesting and informative. And definitely the place to go for real talk, organization, preparation, and subject based ideas and information.

ART FOR KIDS HUB

Art for Kids Hub is a great look for all homeschooling families because:

The channel is actually created and hosted by an actual family. With kids. Doing art.

Most of the projects are easy, uncomplicated, and do not require a bunch of supplies or skills. In most cases, pencils and perhaps crayons or markers will suffice.

My boy loves this channel for all of the cool HOW TO DRAW ... videos that provide easy to understand, step-by-step techniques for drawing everything from ants to a slice of lemon pie.

ThisBrownTeacher's Hot Take: For sure! For sure! 👌🏾

While some of the drawing tutorials or subject matter (Bugatti anyone?) may frustrated younger or easily frustrated children, pre-viewing and pre-selecting a drawing or two you know your homeschooler can handle is the perfect addition to your Art or Creativity curriculum. For sure!

Real Life Lore

What's cool about the Real Life Lore YouTube channel is, by far, the ... LORE! Featuring titles such as What's the Deepest Hole We Can Possible Dig? This channel is chock full of subject matter based topics that are arranged in way that makes what could be somewhat dry content (digging holes ... huh?) really engaging for elementary aged homeschoolers and up. Filled with science and history/social studies heavy themes, from comprehension questions, essays, drawings, map quests, experiments, and more, your learner can successfully interact with this content in so many ways and have fun doing it.

ThisBrownTeacher's Hot Take: For sure! Say less. ✅

Top Fuel Dragsters Visualized and Telling Time on Mars. Sheesh. Say less.

     When Akira started working for Lala-chan part-time, he asked if dressing up was required. She, of course, said no--but Akira followed up with ‘is it optional?’ He wouldn’t always crossdress, but when he does? He’s beautiful. He’s already beautiful, with long, dark lashes and perfect skin, but his drag is so on point that people legitimately can’t tell at times. Not only is his look flawless, but he has amazing range with his voice. In the metaverse he tends to adopt a deeper tone, which carries over into the real world when he’s more serious. His normal tone is a bit higher, but he can take that tone much softer, much more feminine. He’ll sometimes do this just to mess with others and get a reaction, but he tends to adopt this voice when he crossdresses.

            her first instinct was to tell him "no". what would she want to do with a pet? it would just be an obstacle and she’s not one of those people whose only company is a pet because they aren't capable of making real contacts.

            then, however, katherine remembered the big dog her family used to have. the horse she used to have. they weren't classically pets – the dog was mainly there to guard the house and yard and a horse wasn't the typical pet. she remembered the joy those animals brought and she also remembered the loyalty of these animals. their kind eyes. their affection.

            admittedly, although subconsciously, she slightly envied the people who have a pet and formed one of these admirably strong relationships with them.

            "a pet is not feasible for me … you would have to be a responsible owner and i'm not such a person. it’s not just about reminding yourself to feed it regularly or walk it. it's about if i have to rush out of an area, i don’t have the time to go where i stay and pick up my cat or my dog. i would have to leave them behind, never knowing what happened to them." and she could not bear that, her heart would, after all, be attached to this animal. it would be a loss she'd mourn and she wanted to spare herself that feeling.

nadia petrova

how and why did she turn vampire, why was it so important for her to find katherine? → sent by @malka-lisitsa​

nadia petrova was turned into a vampire at her own request in 1515 at the age of 25. during that time, nadia already lived with a group of people that belonged to the 'travelers'; a once powerful, cursed sub-culture of witches.

but let’s begin at the start:

as a newborn, nadia was adopted by a couple, dimitar stoyanov & maria stoyanova, who weren't blessed to conceive living children and were desperate. nadia's grandfather (katherine's father) knew dimitar who was a fisher, lived in a village near the black sea, and with whom he often traded.
