Anyone have a schedule for 5th and 7th grade?

I am starting on the upcoming years schedule and would love to see how you schedule everything.

Do you mean what the children did when or which books were scheduled at different times of the year?

I'm assuming that since you have your curriculum choices in your siggy you mean how the day was scheduled?

We didn't really have a set schedule but here's what we did.

After Breakfast we read our History or Science lesson for the day. If there was time I would read aloud at this time. Next year I want to make time for memory work right here too.

Then he would work independently on R&S Bible, LCII Latin and Elementary Greek, then I would come and go over his RS Math lesson with him and check his Greek, Latin and Bible to make sure he was getting it.

 

At 11:00 we would go to the gym a couple blocks from our house or go for a bike ride.

 

After lunch we would do SWR and CW.

 

He would practice piano whenever he could fit it in. Usually over our lunch break before his sister's nap.

Here is how our day will be schedule for my upcoming 5th grader:

 

8:30 start -

 

Bible - daily

Memory work - daily

Chores - daily

Math - daily

Language Arts - Grammar 3 days, Spelling 4 days, Writing 4 days

Latin - daily

Literature - daily

History 3 days/ Science 2 days

Art/Music Appreciation - 4 days (only about 5-10 minutes per day)

Free reading - daily

 

In addition, we'll work Mindbenders in there somewhere three times per week.

 

I generally allot an hour max for each subject, but if we finish in less time than that, which we usually do, we just take a quick break then move to the next item. We usually finish everything but the free reading by 2:30 at the very latest, often earlier.

I know what we're using for 5th and 7th this year, but haven't yet worked out a schedule. We do the tough academics in the morning, though, and try to keep the afternoon for history, science, park trips, fun stuff.
