This week we are transitioning to a summer schedule. School is a balancing act. Our little household decided to invest three hours for School, an hour for a big walk, and an hour for reading and guitar. Paul, just ten, is at our house eight or nine hours each day. We fill our extra time with cooking, Cub Scout badge work, Art, Christmas presents, games, and Camp.
This week, Paul is completing a book report and Florida report with a slideshow. He finished a bit of School work Tuesday and was off from School yesterday for his birthday. Paul worked on Art projects yesterday instead of School. We will use the Art for a Cub Scout badge and Christmas presents. School next week will be divided into 30-45 minute blocks for about three hours each morning. We want to do Math, Science, and History daily, with a rotation of reading, writing, handwriting, vocabulary, and grammar. Camp in the afternoons will be mainly science experiments with some art. Art follow the Cub Scout badge with a focus on presents. So far so good. Our little household benefits from structure since we cannot go to Scout camp, VBS, or Sports Camps. Yours would benefit, too! Here is our schedule.
