This post reminds me why I am afraid of high school years! lol

We do LA and Math 5 times a week. That is non negotiable for me. It may be m-f or sun-thurs or double up on some days, and skip some, etc. My kids also read for a minimum of an hour per day, usually on the weekends as well (their choice) History is 3 times a week and science is 2 times a week - what we shoot for, but I don't stress about those. I tried planning down to the minute and got ticked when my plans fell thru, so we just do what is next :) Works for us!

Genius! Your quote is now my facebook status!

Total Language Plus. We LOVE it!

It's so HARD! Thats why I cant for the life of me understand how some people fit in Latin, and a full science curriculum!!

We took off yesterday for homeschool day at the zoo :) It was super fun!!!

I.love.Mondays. It seems like we are all rested up and ready to tackle the week :) DS9 had a rough time with math today, but besides that, it was a productive day. We read our bible lesson in the car lol
