A Day In The Life of Our Homeschool

This is a typical day in our homeschool....We usually start around 8:30 take a break at 11:00 and back at 12:00 until 2:00... As long as all their work and chores are done they have the day to themselves.

We work on Bible, Health, Science and History as a group and they do their independent work with Language Arts, Math, Writing and Spelling. Except for the little ones that I work one on one with.

Teaching Children Chores

I have found a cute fun way to help teach the kids their daily chores, thank you to Connie at Smockityfrocks.com for the idea. Using paint chip cards for chores has made it easy to get the kids motivated and to know what is expected of them for their daily chores.  No it is not done perfect I'm not looking for perfection but teaching them that life is work and we should just embrace it.  Do I get the daily complaining and whining of course I do but I just remind them the sooner we get chores done the sooner it is play time.  Most of the chores are done in the afternoon after we are done with our studies however they do have morning routines like making their bed. I want my children to contribute along with all the members of the house and want to help each other out now when they are younger and when they are on their own. God has given us these wonderful blessings and it is up to us to teach them.

Psalm 139:13-16


Psalm 139:13-16 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you,when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depthsof the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of
them,the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
