Well, the first "official" school day was today and it went very well. The kids really enjoyed the Mystery of History and Apologia's Swimming Creatures of the Fifth Day. We're kinda going with a consistant schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays-with Tuesdays and Thursdays following another schedule. It just worked out that way for us.
Here's an example:
MWF
Science 1hour all kids
Geography 1/2 hour all kids
Break for 15 minutes
Spelling, Handwriting, and Reading individually for 1 hour and 45 minutes
Lunch 1/2 hour
Math 1 hour individual lessons
History 1 hour all kids
Grammer 30 minutes individual

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, our schedule looks like this:
Spanish 30 minutes all kids
History 30 minutes all kids
Geography 30 minutes all kids
Break 15 minutes
Spelling, Handwriting, and Reading 1 hour and 45 minutes individual lessons
Lunch 30 minutes
Math 1 hour individual lessons
Grammer 30 minutes individual lessons
Lapbook 1 hour all kids
.
I'm praying that the rest of our week goes just as smoothly. I'll keep you posted!
