[quote=Anonymous]DH found a homeschooling schedule on Facebook and we are following that. Its a combo of 2 outdoor sessions, 2 academic sessions (one without electronics), 1 chore session, 1 quiet time (reading, puzzles, quiet play), lunch, breakfast, and free play. Keeping a flexible schedule is paramount to our sanity. It took some prep work on my part, finding out where the kids left off in school and starting their. I printed out a packet of worksheets and concepts. We also have a ton of workbooks to pull from. I'll try to keep things a little somewhat fresh, so I don't lose my sanity from the kids being stuck here. I plan to challenge my kids a little. We have some degree of executive function issues in one child, but a little encouragement can keep him moving. We are adding a few more online activities today that they are familiar with and enjoy and at least one activity the kids aren't familiar with. I'm really trying not to let the electronics take over.

Every time one of us gets snippy, I say "30 days". Its to remind us all that we are stuck here together for a long time and getting snippy with each other is going to get old real quick.[/quote]
