I spend a few days before each school year preparing complete 180 day schedules for each child. The first one is done. This is J's ninth grade schedule; he's doing Ambleside Online's lightened version of Year 8.
L's Year 5 Schedule is done. I discovered last year that he does better if I break up his readings into small portions and have him reading more books each day, but less of each individual book. I also made a few changes from AO's Year 5 because he's already read King Arthur a couple of times with us, and I don't think Kipling's Kim would suit him. So I found a few etexts at the Baldwin Books project that I think he'll enjoy more: The Aeneid for Boys and Girls by Alfred Church, The Story of Siegfried by James Baldwin, and The Story of Roland by James Baldwin. We do Devotion/Plutarch/Shakespeare together as a family, and Picture Study/Composer/Folksongs/Nature Study together once a week - all of those are on their schedules first each day, since we do those first.
Tim's Year 12 plan is posted, and his daily schedules are here.
