gardening momma Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Is there anything you do in your homeschooling that has become so routine that your kids don't want to do it any other way? Just curious... I read from our science & history books while they do their handwriting. They've come to expect it, and today dd8 didn't want to do handwriting without being able to listen to history or science at the same time.

Hannah Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Dd7 wants me to put on SOTW as soon as she gets in the car. I can sometimes convince here to listen to something else, but not often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyontheFarm Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 It's been six months, I'm still waiting for us to settle into a routine. But, I guess having a flexible schedule is one of the reasons I wanted to homeschool. We hit our classes right after breakfast. I guess that is a routine in it's self. If we don't get to work right away, it does mess with the kids head for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenmama2 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I started writing a morning message on a board in the lounge room to boost DD's reading confidence. Now I can't think of anything to write that she'll have trouble reading but I don't think I'll ever be allowed to stop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Girls' Mom Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Yes. Our schedule system. There are literally tears if I try to change it any. And these aren't small children ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Girls' Mom Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 What is the system? Nothing spectacular. I write down their assignments in my planner, and they copy them down in their own planners. I used to type up their schedules in a spreadsheet and print them. The transition was horrible..lol. Now if I even change the way I write them down, there is chaos.

mumto2 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 We still crawl in the big bed for SL school everyday. Even when we aren't using SL! My kids are 12 and 13 and something needs to be read by me in my bed each morning or they feel cheated. I'm currently doing biology for bed school.
