What do I mean by that?
Don’t jump into all of the subjects at once and stress everyone out!
If you are a few weeks into your school year, and are feeling overwhelmed already, you may need to take a deep breath, and get back to basics.
Maybe strip away Latin and stick with the 3 R’s, or perhaps you need to go even further and begin with only character training.
Some moms do only certain subjects on certain days, rotating the schedule so that there isn’t a heavy load on any one day.
Do you really need creative writing every day each week?
Take a look at your schedule and your curriculum. How many lessons are in each book? How many days will you have instruction? You may find that you can finish all of your lessons if you only do science for example, three days each week.
Most importantly-we are homeschooling to instill a love of learning in our children-that happens even when the school books are closed.
