Comments on: Anne’s homeschool day in the life (with a 4-, 7-, 9- and 11-year-old) https://simplehomeschool.net/annes-day-2015/ Never let your schooling interrupt your education.

Sounds like a full day!

I find myself in a season were we either clean/declutter OR do school, it’s almost never both 🙁 I’m not happy with that current pattern, so I’d love to hear how you work this in.

And I SO appreciate the outdoor wintertime thing… that will help break mommy of the winter blahs!

He always tackles his schoolwork first thing in the morning. Sometimes even before eating breakfast! My daughter doesn’t start thinking in concrete until she’s had a change to create or imagine. I let her have personal time first thing in the morning and I don’t require her to get to work right away. This works out well for us because at their current ages and stages – it’s best that they don’t observe each other’s schoolwork. 🙂
Overall though, I feel like our rhythm is quite similar to yours Anne. Thanks for sharing!

We start with leisurely read-aloud and memory work before getting on with more workbook-y work. Do you get all your blog work in between your early morning and afternoon rest time? I’ve recently started a blog, and I’m still not quite in a groove with incorporating my writing time into my day.
