Daily Schedule

I have re-vamped our schedule.

First of all, I am no longer following the programme set out in the Latin Centered Curriculum. Even though veterans warned me, we became that sort of homeschool which did only its "morning" subjects. We were just not getting to science, art, music, literature, writing, and history. It's really too bad: but I've had to return to a more conventional approach: we all just flat out need the discipline.

So, this is our daily schedule.

Tuesday thru Friday:
Bible Study
Copywork and Recitation
Canadian History (Read Aloud sometimes followed by written work or map work.)
Latin
Lunch and World History (Tuesdays and Thursdays)
Lunch and Science (Wednesdays and Fridays)
Classical Writing
Grammar/Math (Do one child first, then the other).

Saturday:
Bible Study (Review)
Dictation
History (Chapter Review Test)
Science (Experiment or activity)
Composer Study
Art

Here it is all purty:

I used the Charlotte Mason principle of alternating content with skill subjects...and it works very well. We did two consecutive weeks of school at the beginning of August and starting by 9am, we were finished by about 1:30, 2:00 pm every day.

I really enjoyed that.
