This was a morning that actually went the way I scheduled it. I drove J & B to the train at 7am, swung back home to pick up K & W, drove K to school (stopping to pick up coffee, a breakfast bar, and arizona sweet tea for K's lunch), and got home with W by 8:30 (got stuck behind a school bus for forever -__-). Right away, I threw on a load of towels, put away dishes, wiped down the bathroom, made my bed, and cleared a clutter pile. Then I put the towels in the dryer, windexed the mirrors & glass and dusted the china cabinet and ceiling fans. All of this took exactly 1 hour.
At 9:30am I sat down with some coffee to check some emails and facebook.
At 10am, I got out all the homeschool stuff and W and began some academics:
- 2 pages of math
- 1/2 a chapter of Wind in the Willows w/narration
- W read a page of Abraham Lincoln (D'Aulaire) to me
- Homophones exercise in Spelling Skills
- 1 lesson in Writing Strands
- 1 chapter from Child's History of the World w/narration
- 1 William Blake poem
- Some of the reptile section in the Handbook of Nature Study
