This usually takes much longer than it should. I usually send them up to get dressed after this. We are using More Than Words by Masterbooks this year, so it’s more like a morning devotional than “school”. We usually eat breakfast before we get started with our Bible but if it’s a late morning then sometimes we do them together. However, this is what works for us, so you can decide what works best for you! I’ve found that my kids are more focused for school work if we keep it off. One choice I’ve decided to make is no television before school. My girls usually get up around 7:30 or 8:00, and not all at the same time of course. This way I can have some time to wake up and do something for me before I’m bombarded with questions and needs for the rest of the day! If you’re an introverted momma, then you probably understand what I’m talking about! 7:30 – 9:00
However, as an introvert, I’m a much happier person when I wake up before everyone. Since I’m really great at staying up too late, though, getting up at 5:30 is a challenge! I don’t always get up this early, but I try. Here’s our homeschool schedule in a little more detail to give you a better feel for what we’re doing. The following is our current homeschool schedule (our routine!): A Closer Look If your family has a crazy busy schedule, or you are working at home with strict working hours, then sticking to the times might be very useful and important! In the classroom, time periods are important for various reasons, however, at home it’s been much less important. This is the kind of flexibility that makes homeschooling so special!
The same is true if everyone gets up late. If everyone is up early, then we get started early. What I mean by that is on school days we usually complete the tasks on the schedule in the order listed, but I’m not really too concerned with what time it is. In fact, we barely follow them at all! In reality, our “schedule” is probably more of a routine.
The times!Įven though I created our schedule with time blocks, we don’t follow them strictly. Overall, our homeschool schedule has worked well and we follow it most days…except for one little thing. Once I knew what curriculum we were going to be doing, I got to work trying to create something that I thought would work for us.
HOMESCHOOL DAILY SCHEDULE CHART HOW TO
Having once been a classroom teacher, the idea of creating a schedule wasn’t as daunting to me as it may be to others, but trying to figure out how to make it work with my own kids of multiple ages presented some challenges! (At least this is true for the umbrella school we are using this school year.) As a mom of three, I knew I was going to need some sort of schedule to organize our school days! Plus, living in Florida, we’re required to submit some kind of daily schedule with our portfolio.
