How to Manage Your Homeschool Schedule || CONSISTENCY UPDATE

[@elizabethhaarsma4840]

I completely relate to your thought processes and struggles with consistency! Fully agree on needing a goal with still some flexibility built in!

Thank you!

Really struggling with consistency during a stressful season of life. Thank you for your video!! ❤

I relate so much and honestly it brings me so much guilt when we don't do everything. But lately life doesn't allow for "everything" we're doing bare minimum schooling and then of course, guilt follows.

Aw, I'm glad you can relate. That feeling of guilt stinks, huh? It's not all or nothing though! Get up and try again!

I am not homeschooling yet... since our wedding is in four months :) but I love your videos. I found out when I was a teacher that I was unable to plan precisely, then follow exactly what I had planned. I think, with my future children for preschool, I'll have time blocks for school every day and a yearly check-list of milestones to reach. I'll let my children choose every day among several activities that I choose so that we can reach all the milestones. Then I'll write down every day what each child has done and voilà.

Perfect! Love your videos…❤

Time management is so hard for me. Thanks for sharing this, I'm going to get that book. Something that has worked for me with read alouds is to have a large book (right now it's Robin Hood) we read together every night at bedtime. We try to get smaller read alouds done in the daytime, but if we miss it, we always have the bedtime one to fall back on.

That’s a great idea!

Ahh I so needed this video! I've been feeing so scattered lately. The past couple of years I used a planner where I wrote out plans every Sunday for the week, which took forever, and then I'd end up drawing arrows to the next day for all the things we didn't finish. This year I went with an overall planner but it didn't have ANY weekly pages....which I'm finding I still need! I bought my son an elementary planner and I've been using that like a reverse planner to keep record of what we've done. But some weeks we do Five in a Row so I still need to write out daily plans those weeks, so I've just been printing off blank weekly planner pages, but I definitely need something to look at that has the basic flow for the day. I'm okay at getting our main subjects in (math, phonics, spelling, handwriting, sometimes language/grammar) but I really just need something that's in my face reminding me of what should be next lol. And I LOVE your idea of a "minimum" day. That is so simple yet so smart! I got Mystie's book for Christmas...just have to find the time to sit down and read it lol. I definitely want to look into the circle too though. I feel like you do so many more subjects than we do, but I already feel like we are "doing school" for such a big chunk of the day.....I know a lot of it is having a toddler and my son and I both getting distracted....but I'm not sure where the time is going to come from in the future to add in more subjects as he gets older. 🙈 I'm going to watch this again later and try to come up with loops and lists like yours!

Thank you so much for sharing how you do it! I can relate a lot to what you said. Glad you are figuring out what works and what doesn't! That's a part of homeschooling :)
