Slache Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Today might be the last day of Matt's (regular) six day work weeks. We're exchanging his Mondays for extra hours on Friday and Saturday, giving him a 2 day weekend. He kept coming up short (like $100 short!) on Mondays and working late the rest of the week to make up for it. I'm really hoping this works out. Everyone is burned out. He's always tired and the kids miss normality. I think he's had 3 days off since we moved here. We've done things more than that but that's because he's taken partial days off in exchange for working nights so he can spend time with the kids. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are my findings. 8 hours ago, Paradox5 said: I don't put curriculum in my siggy because I switch it around too much. Shameful of me, I know. ADDING: I also don't put curriculum in my siggy because I fear judging or shaming for what we do and what level we are at. Or that we are not doing enough or the 'wrong' subjects or misisng subjects. This is a MENSA level, super active in stuff board and most of you guys homeschool that way. My kids aren't like that. It can be intimidating a lot of the time. This! and I do the birthdates because it requires less updating. I always forget, which is sad because I ONLY go on WTM from my computer so it's not like I can't see it. Saying what we do would look something like: DD: Graduate school, working full time retail management while finishing up her degree (maybe, she's not sure she wants to, may change direction). DS (9th grade, 14 years old): Started with Foerster's Algebra, switched to MUS Algebra because he's gifted in math but hates it and just wants to get it done and MUS is less wordy. Vocabulary from Classical Roots but he only has the last two books left and I have no idea if I need to do anything after that. I have three different writing programs but haven't gotten off my butt to work out the plans for any of them so he is still not doing any writing program. Still trying to figure out a literature program because he finished the last book of Mosdos and I want something just like that. I do have him doing a study of The Story of Science: Aristotle in the meantime. I'm pretty sure he reads for an hour a day. History has fallen by the way-side for now. Will get back into it soon. Science is physics and forensics at the science center (that I own and teach everything) and he just finished a Science Terminology class and will also be doing a Study Skills class. Just joined a gym for PE so he'll get up off his butt every so often now that it's getting too cold and dark to walk. DD (7th grade, 12 years old): Doing a very slow, easy introduction to Algebra (parts might even count as pre-algebra) at the Science Center and struggling. Needs to do math every single day or seems to forget everything. Feels lots of anxiety and cries no matter what we do. I have 5 years to get her through Algebra 2 and it might take every minute. Vocabulary from Classical Roots - has three books left, not sure what to do after. Writing - does quite a bit of writing as part of Mosdos and has improved 1000% once I told her to type it and email it to me. Turns out she can write a decent sentence/paragraph! Mosdos Jade Literature which is the last one so I'm hoping whatever I finally figure out for ds is something she can do later. I'm not at all sure she reads for an hour a day no matter how many times I remind her. History is by the wayside for her too, but she's farther behind than her brother because she hasn't even finished up putting stuff in the timeline book from our last unit. Science - Chemistry and Earth/Space at the science center. Her choice, those are the ones her friends are in so she wanted to do both. PE is TKD, she gets her first black belt this afternoon! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I need to remember to do laundry this weekend. It was all done early in the week so there's not as much but if I don't do what there is this weekend, it will just build and build and build and I'll be under an avalanche again by next week. Classes start again Monday so need to be ready. I already didn't get done nearly the amount of cleaning I wanted to, but the first two weeks of classes will be completely planned so that's something. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I put in a signature because it reminds me of what I'm supposed to be doing. I'm bubble-headed. I don't care about what Mensa-level people think because they're not raising my kids. I was almost intimidated to post about my oldest's chemistry woes on the high school board, but did anyway and was actually supported, so some of the intimidation fears are unfounded. (My oldest graduated with Integrated Math because she couldn't get through algebra, and Intro to Chemistry and kitchen chemistry because...it was torture...?). Anyway, I don't care what people think because I'm old, crotchety, and too busy to notice. Besides, I like my kids just the way they are. "Growth mindset" has been around long before they gave it that name. There's a lady that I subscribe to that sends free downloads every week. I like her stuff, but have never used it. Gymnast questions everything, including her own efforts, so I don't know what to do about that. I pick up my first grocery pick up order at the Walmart down the way in a bit. I called my mom yesterday to just say hi. By the end, she was reminding me she always has an open door. I'm wondering how much Dh heard (front door was open) coming from work, because he was kinda subdued last night. I didn't have time to ponder it much because I worked last night. Then went to bed. I cancelled two early morning classes for this morning because I needed rest. I work again tonight. We're going to need a trip to the laundromat soon. I missed two of Gymnast's Chinese classes this week (with Lingobus) and I'm sick about it. Those were the last two credits and I plumb forgot. Well, Thursday I forgot the class was in the morning instead of the afternoon. I'm deciding whether to buy a half price package on Black Friday or not. This is No-spend November, but it's the cheapest price of the year. I can purchase now and still give her the break she wants while we continue to go to Chinese school on Sundays. Decisions, decisions. I should get out of bed now and get ready to go. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trees are at their peak (we don’t have a lot of trees change color, but the ones that do are gorgeous) and the weather has been unusually warm for November, but it was awfully risky to plan.

Renai Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Our attitudes toward our kids affects in so many ways. I've been exhausted and cranky, and how I was dealing with Gymnast's violin practice and lessons were affected. I had to remind myself of making deposits and the balance to withdrawals. No matter how tired. Even when late to lessons. She likes violin, but I was sucking the love out of it. Being late resulted in her having a hard time getting into the lesson because I was caught up on her being late. I started telling her she can do well, do her best, regardless of how much time she had in the lesson. I'd make a point of writing down the positive things the teacher said during the lesson so I could remind her during practice of the good things her practice was producing. There has been a 180 in her approach to violin. We still have days when I just tell her to put the violin away because I don't want to deal with attitude, but not as many, and she started pulling it out on her own later in the day to practice. Some of it may be because she's growing up (will be 9 in January), but there's no denying the spark in the eye when something positive is noticed and remarked upon. I'm constantly reminding myself of this in other areas as we go through a period of me working way too much and being tired all the time. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Girl hates reading so is 4th a good place to start? I haven't used the Teachers guide but everything I've seen about it says it's overwhelmingly complete. Way too much information and options. When we had the workbook, I'd have them read the story and then there were enough workbook pages for them to do 2 pages every single day for a week with some left over. The textbook has questions of various types at the end of each story and those are plenty for us now because I don't feel like they need the vocabulary and copywork type stuff of the workbook. I like that each story discusses some aspect of literary analysis or genre or something, then the story includes vocabulary definitions right at the bottom of the page if they need it, then the questions are a mix of comprehension "what happened in the story" type, then some general about the genre, some more thought-provoking ones, and a longer writing assignment.
