Scheduling

In our family, scheduling is always a challenge. As the kids have gotten older, we've added more and more activities. This can make keeping to a schedule VERY challenging. As a rule, we try to get started each day by 10:00. That allows us to enjoy breakfast together, get some chores done, and then settle in for school. We always start out the day with our core subjects such as math, grammar, phonics & spelling. We finish up with as much as possible before breaking for lunch around 12:30 or 1:00. After lunch we'll get in history, science & any extra subjects such as art, music or Spanish. In the afternoon, the kids will read, play online educational games, watch a video that corresponds with what we're learning, and then head outside for free time. Evenings are spent reading out loud, Bible stories & prayers before bed. This is the ideal schedule, but it can be tough to get everything in. What's your schedule like?

  1. Hello, Crow Family. I left you a message last week that you'd won my giveaway for the Magnificent Marine Life lapbook kit, but I haven't heard back from you. I need to hear from you by Friday or I'll have to select another winner. You can email me through the contact link on my blog.

    Thanks!
