Katiebug_1976 Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Do you schedule by work load or by an amount of time? I have been reading about "loop scheduling" and it sounds really interesting to me. I am hs'ing 4dc & have 2 younger ones also. We (dc & I) are all tired of trying to hurry up and get things done! I feel like everything we do anymore is rushed just so we can be finished before bedtime! Does this happen anywhere else or just at my house? Anyway, I have been contemplating this "loop schedule" thing for the last year and I think I am just about ready to try it (when I asked dh for his opinion about it he said that he had been suggestion something like that for quite a while. My brain has been spinning for so long he probably did & it just didn't register with me!). I had planned on schooing for 3 weeks then taking 1 week off year round, but now I'm thinking that if we schooled for 3-4 hours a day (even 5-6 days a week) and were done by lunch time every day then we would have the whole afternoon to explore all kinds of other interestes. So here are my questions: Does anyone else use a loop schedule? If so, how does it work for you? If I create a loop schedule for all of the work I do w/ dc, would I create a seperate one for each dc for their independent work? Ideas for how to keep my 3yo entertained during school time would also be greatly appreciated. I used to be good at that, but my brain still seems to be on vacation from my last pregnancy (I hope it comes back soon!)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
