Daily Schedule 2016-17

I love schedules!  If you have read my blog ever you already know that.  So this year our schedule is a bit tricky.  Since we will be starting Classical Conversations for the first time, I am not too sure what our final schedule will look like, but here is what we are working with right now.

Our morning time will cover a lot of ground for us this year.  We will be including all memory work, read alouds, history, and science.  So far that is working really well for us.  

After lunch we will dive into our independent subjects, this is totally new for us this year.  Typically we would do our independent things in the morning, and then do together subjects in the afternoon.  I always wanted to get math and reading out of the way while their brains were fresh, but I think this will work well doing it after lunch.  

As you can see Elijah has a big block of subjects and basically when he is done with those he is done with his school day.  While I am working with Zach, Noah will be doing what he can on his own.  Then once Zach is done I will move on to teaching Noah.  

Keep in mind that the times posted are just approximate, we don't stick too closely to those.  I really like to have an idea of when things should happen to keep me on track with our day.
