Curriculum change help for 8th grade(family with littles)

I’m hoping for help choosing curriculum. I have a lazy learner. She’s not motivated to write, or do activities. Will be 8th grade next year. We currently use masterbooks math,IEW grammer(but stopped a few weeks ago) campfire unit studies for the rest.. some days it takes way too much dependence on me for her to do what needs to be done.. I’m burnt out.. we’ve been lagging the last few weeks.

I have an upcoming highneeds kindergartener I will need to put time into, as well as a sweet 3year old who wants to be involved.. I can’t be reviewing my oldests math 30 minutes a day, and then leading her to correct mistakes, 15 minutes of grammer correction and then spending 40 minutes on a campfire read aloud, and then preparing and doing an activity, all while trying to keep the littles happy.. lately they’ve been scrapping it out in the background or being obnoxiously loud and distracting.. my daughter isn’t getting her best work out, I’m feeling overwhelmed and frustrated, and the boys behaviors have gotten out of control..

I need to change the game plan because next year now includes schooling the middle child as well and still my oldest and life in general..

I need mostly hands off curriculum suggestions for lazy bare minimum middle/high students…

We love campfire and it crushes my soul to consider leaving it as she enjoys the readings.. but I can’t keep doing it this way..

I’ve looked into ctc math.. but I think she would mental math it all and refuse to do it right or review the reinforcement part.. her attention span for videos are sub par… idk… she hated ixl in public school and this didn’t look a ton different..

I would like recomendations

I am wide foot, have a lovely little toe slope but it makes shoes hard to find without too much room or my big toe being cramped. tons of space between all my toes and a pretty good arch. Primary frustration is a have a callous on the top of the joint on my big toe. I can assume from my shoes. But it’s been there for years. I don’t like mesh top shoes.. I always break out of the top somehow. Suggestions as to brand? Preferably in the 150 or less range. Barefoot in house and yard, but shoes to go out.
