Great advice. I'm bad about the "one more page" too.

It’s not always bad though- I usually thank myself for it when we have busy days later and we’ve done a lot of school already 😂

I am also in a very busy season of life right now. Our son is graduating from high school/technical college this month, our oldest daughter and our son-in-law are moving to Japan, for 4 years, at the beginning of June with the air force and to top things off, we just closed on building our new house in TN. So, my husband and I are slowing starting to get projects done around our current house in preparation to sell at the end of this year. Our weekends are packed full of projects. So planning for homeschool for our two younger kiddos sometimes doesn't get done. When that happens I fall back on "reverse planning". My kids love reverse planning weeks. We try and hit the main subjects but if we don't, it's ok. I simply record down what we have done. Sometimes I start to internally panic if we didn't do math or history, etc., but I try to quickly remind myself that this is just a temporary season of life for all of us right now. For example, instead of doing math book work, I will play some math games. Good luck! Thanks for sharing.

Holy cow your plate is very full right now!! But I love that you also use it as a fall back option- I’d definitely like to incorporate it into our regular year next year around busy seasons (like planting and holidays)! Thank you for sharing!

Hi! Great video!! The "technical" term for this method would be "Reverse planning" lol. And yes, I do need to have a list of what to get done each day...if I don't, something or thingS will not get done haha. But just listing our subjects and filling in what we did, instead of placing specific lessons/pages is definitely liberating lol! It's worked so well for us!
