Schooling many? Do you have a weekly sch. to share?

[Sue G in PA]

I have looked at several different weekly schedule forms from many wonderful ladies here (thanks!) and they are all terrific. I figured out that I need to see one from somebody who is schooling many (I have 5 that are actually being taught). Do you make a weekly sch. for each child? Do you make one and include all dc on one master sheet? Do you do both? If you have one to share...please let me know. I'm just having a hard time tweaking the ones that were emailed to me (even thought they are GREAT!) to fit multiple dc, KWIM? I have HST basic but it is simply to tedious for me and I can't afford + right now.

I blogged and posted a sample of my assignment checklists.

It's the basic weekly expected work load for each student.

Is that the kind of schedule info you are looking for?

I find listing every hour of the day to a chore/assignment or whatever to be tedious and nor very practical for us.

and one coming.

 

9 am Bible- everyone sits for this including the youngest 2

 

9:20 Handwriting

 

9:30 Math for the 3 oldest- we do MUS so they watch the video on Mondays and then work through the week asking questions when the need to

 

9:30-10 is Kindergarten with 5 yo- we do Abeka K Math, and Saxon Phonics (She also does handwriting when the others do)

 

10:00 Snack

 

10:15: Spelling (we do spelling power so every other day I give them a new list)

 

10:30-11:00- Reading Independently

 

11:00 -11:30 Grammar and Latin (all of the older 3 do this) We huse Shurley and LfC which integrate nicely- Latin is about the only thing I teach-- otherwise they know the drill and ask as they go.

 

11:30 to 1:00- Lunch

 

1:00- Baby (20 months) goes down for nap, and hopefully the new one will too.

 

1:00- 2:30- History and science

 

This works pretty well. Of course, there are always things that get in the way. That's life. HTH.

I have 3 this year if you count preschool.

This is the schedule/lesson plan I use.

I do it on excel.

I have a sample page on my blog (it doesn't fit on here).

See the link in my sig line.

Sue...I think I can answer this one (having the same number of children, the same number schooling, and lining up at right about the same ages :lol:). I used to have times listed, but something ALWAYS happened (baby floods my lap, toddler dumps the flour bowl, anything Murphy's Law would have to do with). So this is more like a flow chart with minutes listed instead...that way i'm not feeling defeated before I even begin.

40________ MWF-Music, TT-Art

Quiverof10, how do you put screen shots up on your blog?

I am so loving these schedules. I'm an overwelmed mom and trying to work two special needs kids together and this gives me ideas for that. I wish I knew Excel. I have it but don't know how to use it. Thanks for the post and for sharing.
