In effort to keep me from burning out with my aggressive learner, I have decided to make our school year a little more structured in regards to the days in which we school. We will have school on Mondays and Tuesdays then Wednesday off (nice mid-week break) then school again on Thursdays and Fridays. No school on the weekends either. This will give us a 4 day week of school. I think that is completely appropriate for a 5 year old.
On the non-school days, we still will have snack/story time (read alouds) and whatever crafts the girls feel like doing. Just no lessons!
Yes, the 4 day week. Sometimes we need the extra day to shop or the teacher needs a mental health day or we just start our weekend early. Some weeks, we go 5 days. It varies.
