How Long Is Our Homeschool Day? Does It Have to Last All Day?!

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

How long does your day currently take? (with how many kids & their ages) If you haven't started homeschooling yet, I'd love to know if this number surprised you! 😃

3 kids third grade, first grade and 2 year old. We are done homeschooling by 11:30! 8:30-11:30am

@@emmyanne03 That's fantastic! Isn't it so great to be done by lunch? 😅🙌

It's also good to note that some curriculums have a CD option that reads the text for you, like the history curriculum "Story of the World" for example, which works for those mamas who want to free up extra time and not get overwhelmed with long reading sessions! ☺️ There's also internet classes like Teaching Textbooks for math through highschool, which many people I know love. Love how many options we have in this era of homeschooling!

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

I didn't know Story of the World had that option!! That's awesome! Thanks for sharing! Yes, the many options is such a blessing!

Yes! Attitude can definitely make the day long or short. Thankfully my son has finally figured this out (after explaining this to him over the years) and gets his work done so he can have more free time.

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

I'm so relieved to hear it finally kicks in ;) But seriously, great job, mom!!

[@larag1409]

Love all your videos! 💗 Do you know of any online history curriculum?

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

Thank you SO much!! ☺️ The Ron Paul Curriculum has online courses including history! (www.ronpaulcurriculum.com/index.cfm?affID=johnsons) And BJU Press has online courses including history! (www.bjupresshomeschooling.com/site/include.php?id=103)

I’d love to know what math your younger ones do with the video and worksheets!

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

Math-U-See! It's been our favorite for years!

[@JustMakinItWork]

Attitudes definitely factor in🤪

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

Haha right?!

Hi:) I am a homeschool mom as well and I also like to finish school by lunch because there's always so much to do!! I just started working from home.. what is your work schedule like ??

[@TheJohnsonCrew]

That's awesome! It's a good feeling to know it's all wrapped and you can move on to your other to-dos! My schedule varies - we run our own wedding photography business, so I don't have set hours and the amount I need to do each work varies. I usually do some in the afternoon, then the rest after the kids go to bed at night. I can get the "must dos" done in an hour or so a day usually and then I try to make time here and there to get some marketing things (or tax stuff or general system improvement things) done!
