I decided to clean out the school cupboard & project drawers today. What a CHORE... it took at least 1.5 hours. But it was a good thing to do... I was able to make a list of all the supplies we'll need for the school year. It's easy stuff this year like crayons, markers, glue, tape, etc. Nothing major and no notebooks needed... or paper (except colored paper which they seem to go through like water!) I'm pretty excited about that... Less $$ to have to put out at the beginning. :) I'm going to splurge and get a few fun items for Samuel (the 2 y/o), like playdough w/ accessories. It's been about 5 mos since we've had non-dried out playdough in our home. lol I need to figure out a few more things to get for him that will be fun & keep him busy for at least 10 minutes while we work. I planned out a schedule too: For subjects we'll be doing: Mon ~ Math, Writing, Reading, History & Art Tues ~ Math, Writing, Reading & Science Wed ~ Math, Writing, Reading, Social Studie & Art Thurs ~ Math, Writing, Reading Fri ~ Free Day or Friday School (depending on which week it is) Ideally I'd like my day to follow this pattern: 7:15 ~ Bfast 8 ~ Start School 10 ~ Snack/Break 10:30 ~ Finish School 11:30 (or earlier if school is done) ~ Chore Time 12:30 ~ Lunch 1 ~ Nap/Quiet Time 3 ~ Finish Chores &/or School (if needed) 4 ~ Outside Play 6 ~ Dinner 7 ~ Reading Time/Jammy Time 8 ~ Bedtime Now that's my 'ideal', but I don't know if it'll run that way.... especially w/ the baby coming in Oct. & Samuel's unpredictability. He's such a busy 2 y/o!! I'm pretty excited now that we're getting closer and closer!!! |
