I find it  hard this time of the year to stay on track.  We seem to slack off  and get behind....  I am trying to nip it in the bud early this time by staying on track with the three R's which are the staples of learning.    Each day we do reading, arithmetic, writing and of course Bible stories and discussion. Then each day of the week has one of the other subjects assigned.  Monday- History, Tuesday-our day out with Classical Conversations, Violin and Dance, Wednesday - Science, Thursday- Art and Friday-Music.  We may not always cover everything and sometimes only the basics, but as long as we are covering those three R's and Bible, I feel we have accomplished much.  Of course we also do other things such as last week when we did book binding, bread making (which we do weekly), card making - for Valentines and Chinese New Year etc.    Character training is a part of daily life., being implemented in daily tasks.    Accountability is essential in homeschooling.  One must diligent to do their best in everything they do so as to glorify the Lord.  I pray I can do better this year as it shows in our witness to others.
