Momto6inIN Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I don't block schedule the things I do with the kids myself or that we do all together as a group, because it's easier for me and my brain to have the same lineup every day. But my 2 oldest like to block schedule their "on their own" subjects. They are much more productive this way, and it definitely helps with labs. They allot a 2.5 hour block of time 4x/week, usually in the afternoons but not always, to do their block subjects. 9th grader does one block for logic, one for programming, and two for biology each week. 7th grader does one block for programming and logic, two blocks for science, and one block for literature each week.

Cottonwood Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I have since gotten away from block scheduling because after doing it for 6 weeks the kids begged for more daily variety. But when we did it it was: Monday = a block of language arts. Tuesday was a block of social studies/history and some spelling. Wednesday was the week's block of Science and then some vocab. Thursday a small block of history, finish up science? A larger block of vocab. Friday was another Language arts block. Math was daily, first thing every morning, then the block.. Mine are in middle school and do 5 hours of school a day. 1.5 of math, then 3.5 of a big block or for smaller blocks, 1.5 and 2 hours of something.

SevenDaisies Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 We do daily Math, Latin, Spelling, Grammar, Literature and Composition. We do a long block once weekly of Geography, Science, History, Catechism, Bible and Art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
