Laura Corin Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 We are about to start week 14 of 39, so I suppose we are on about day 65. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meet me in paris Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Monday will be day 86... but that doesn't mean that's where we are in all of our books. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMary2 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 We started the last week of August and we are on Day 60. We have had some field trips and several review/catch up days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisabees Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Around day 58 here. We start after Labor Day and follow the ps schedule, because of my other three. Already had a full week off last week. Why don't some of you count field trips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 We school year-round, but we go lighter in the summer (just language arts, math, and Spanish). We just finished week 13 of our full-subject year, so we'll be on day 66 Monday. Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2_girls_mommy Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I'm just thankful I don't have to bother counting days since our authorities don't need to be told this information. I'd get really confused about what to count or not, as in if your child is sick but not that sick, and you don't do any written work, but you read lots of educational books, is it a 'school' day or not? This is us too. But to try... We do 4 day weeks at home, co-op on Fridays, which is a school day, but not my school day of what I want to accomplish at home. So to make it easy I go by math lessons. DD7 is on lesson 65 in math. DD5 is only on 53, but that is because I have had to begin splitting her lessons up over 2 days as the progression began moving a little too quickly for her. So she will not complete her math book at the end of the traditional school year. Technically if I had to count days, we would be way past 65, counting co-op days and field trips, etc. We go way over the 180 required.

Mommy22alyns Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Just finished day 79. My intent was to school year round but June & July were very hard for me and I just realized I don't have any records for those months! :001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melora in NC Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Started in June, so we have 102 days. We school year round, though, so some of those days were pretty light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We did some "light" school during the summer, then took most of September off & some of October due to a new baby. We do 4 days/week. Since starting back up, we've done 44 days. If I counted by Math days, we'd be on 53/56 (depending on the child). (This works out to 28-31 weeks of math left @ 4/week.) If I counted by WWE, we'd only be on Week 14. As for the rest of it, I have 19 weeks of grammar left (@ 3/week), 25 weeks of SOTW left, and 34 weeks of Chemistry. We will not be "done" by Memorial Day in 2010. But that's ok with me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renai Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Well, it depends on what ya mean... I was student teaching all semester, so dd was home either with my mil or my husband (eg., substitute teachers). If we count how many days science and geography were done, we're like on day....4 :D. She did math and reading almost every day, but I have no idea how many days. Thankfully, in this state we only keep a calendar, not days, and we school through the summer.

nukeswife Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We started the beginning of Aug, but took off some time for a few gym camps. We'll start day 66 on Monday, and will be on a 7 day a week schedule since the kids seem to enjoy that.:001_huh: I know I have odd kids.

babysparkler Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We just finished week 15 (we had a "sick week" when we all had h1n1 but we made up the work during Thanksgiving break, so we are right where we should be :) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmamainva Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Friday was Day 90!! We're halfway finished with the school year!!! :party: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malenki Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Day 68. We had the swine flu and that wiped out a week. And the boys both have special needs so we're at the doctor at least 3 times a month; we somtimes lose a whole day that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mama Anna Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We've just finished week 15, but a couple of them have been Half-School weeks because of the baby in September. I'm figuring we'll finish somewhere in June or July unless we do the interstate move that may be looming on the horizon. Mama Anna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We just finished week 15, so that was 75 days. We took a week off at Thanksgiving. Monday begins day 76 for us. We take three weeks off at Christmas, so we really don't finish up our first semester (week 18) until we get back in January. Even with that, we don't take off a day here and a day there, so we'll still finish about the same time as you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mama25angels Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 We are on day 56.5 of our 6wks. on and 1wk. off schedule. Right now we're on our Christmas schedule and are only doing Bible, Latin/Greek, Writing, Lit. reading (narrations), which is why i'm only counting half days.

Tam101 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'm not sure how I would count days since we do at least something everyday, even if it's only reading and piano practice. We are on about week 18, we started the first week of Aug and have taken about a 1 1/2 weeks off, so based on a 5-day week that would be 90 days. Why do I have to make things so complicated! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pageta Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Why don't some of you count field trips? We don't have to count officially, but when we did 18 days of field trips and 22 days of actual schoolwork in our first quarter, I decided maybe I needed to focus on the number of days of schoolwork we were getting done if we were to get through our curriculum. I only try to do 160, though, which leaves 20 for field trips, if we were trying to do the typical 180. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravin Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 We started Jul 28th. We're currently three days gone in week 13 on a six-day week schedule, so... Day 72 is done. Many of those "days" were done over the course of 2 or 3 days, plus DD is in an enrichment program, so if we were tracking for attendance reporting purposes there would be more days, but we don't have to, so we don't. Our first semester is scheduled to be 18 wks. So at the rate we're going, we'll finish before Estrella War, which is in Feb. I hope. Then for spring we'll be starting some new activities, and that semester I'll probably make shorter (and not a six-day week since we just don't get six-day weeks done around here).

LunaLee Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 82- we had a few missed days because of a death in the family and I let my ds actually take the whole week off for Thanksgiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
