Back to (Home)School

After a hectic and crazy time, we have finally started the new school year. We have 4th grade, 2nd grade, and K4 in our home. For those of you who are new around here, we are a homeschooling family. We use Abeka Academy and LOVE it. We landed on Abeka’s curriculum after trying out three others over the years. It is hard to believe that I am in my fifth year of homeschooling!

This is Harper’s first year of structured learning, and she is loving it so far. It is so fun to watch her blossom. Her desk is set up in the office with me so I can help her when she needs it. It also helps keep her on task.

I caught Chloe off guard.

Chloe and Addi have a table in the homeschool room where they work. (That mattress has moved..) They go on a ten minute break after two subjects, which helps them get wiggles out so they focus better.

Our schedule varies from day to day. Typically, we get started at 8 AM after eating breakfast. We have an hour break at noon for lunch and play. Then, it’s back to work. Right now, they are finishing up anywhere between 2 and 3.

I tend to get a lot of questions about homeschooling. I love talking about it, so please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
