Squeak seems much more academically focused and alert at night time, so we tried night school last night! Wow, did she do great! I think it's a combo of being able to stay up longer and she always seems to have a bundle of energy before bed. So I figured I would use that energy constructively and Squeak was fully on board and excited to go! She did a week's worth of math lessons last night and a page from her new phonics book. Like an energizer bunny!!
I figured we will do our Bible and crafty stuff during our regular school time (in the am) then math and phonics or whatever else in the evening. For example, our habitat animals will be done in the am then we will wait and work on math after she gets into her PJs. We are still staying on a 3 day schedule for now but I won't be surprised if she asks to do school tonight again.
On another note, a friend sent me Singapore Math 1a to review (the 1st grade math) and it wasn't as intimidating as I thought it was going to be. The workbook looked much more difficult than the textbook. But what we use for 1st grade is still up in the air....depends on how Squeak likes Horizons K.
