I agreed to help out with our homeschool group this year by organizing our PE co-op. I thought it would be simple, right? All the topics are right there from this past year, just take all the families and distribute the moms teaching.
Oh yeah, and call the Community Center about winter time PE.
Oh yeah, and find a few lesson plans on the web.
Oh yeah, and figure out how to distribute the kids in classes since 75% of them now fall in the "older" class.
Oh yeah, and reschedule the class time to swap with another activity.
Oh yeah, and a couple of families aren't going to participate this year so the % of time each parent has to spend teaching is increasing.
Oh yeah, and make sure I find out when everyone's vacation is so that I don't schedule them to teach; and find out what topics they are really good at so I can assign those.
Whew, its exhausting!
Thankfully there are a couple of other moms who are great in bouncing off ideas and looking at things from different angles!! I'm just trying to figure out how I will get this all sorted out in time to actually START the co-op after Labor Day. |
