melmac Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) We're just dipping into classic year one, dialectic level, and I am trying to decide on how to schedule each week. Seeing what others are doing or have done would be very helpful to me. Thanks! Edited March 21, 2009 by melmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialmama Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I spend an hour planning on Saturdays. We set up the schedule Monday mornings, and generally start with reading. We do reading on Mon, Tues and Wed. We do geography (map work) on Monday. Writing lesson and pre-writing on Wed, fine-tuning on Thursday and polished copy handed in on Friday. btw, after Wednesday's lesson, I back off on the writing, dd is expected to complete the writing assignment during her own time, which is free time between subjects or "after school". Discussion and SAP is done Wed or Thurs, whenever the reading is complete, and activities and art on Thurs or Fri. My scanner is not working so I can't scan my actual schedule, but this is roughly it. For UG, I find it can take anywhere from 1-3 hours per day, using a 5 day school week. hth somewhat...

Rhonda in TX Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I don't know what level you're looking at, but we are currently UG for history and UG/D for literature. I break up the history, literature, and church history readings out over the whole week. So, for each day we may have readings from each subject, depending on the amount assigned. I try to finish literature on Thursday so they can spend that time working on the lit worksheet on Friday. Lit discussion happens after they finish it. There's no real history discussion assignments for UG. Geography is usually done on Fridays, but if it's a longer assignment, we may do some earlier in the week, too. Hands-on activities are worked on Tuesdays and Fridays (our days when we don't have any outside activities). I use IEW for writing, so I don't know how that compares to Writing Aids.
