Scheduling For Fifth Graders

I get asked quite frequently how we schedule our homeschool, and what we do on a daily basis. This has not always been an easy question. Some years we have had a rotating schedule, some years we worked off and on with a variety of different projects.

Yet, this year finally we have a schedule that seems to be working for each of us. We started this year using block scheduling. Each day we focus on one primary subject. Though we do smaller subjects such as Bible and Latin each day. The key to making a schedule that works for you and your family is to find exactly what you need. Sit down and map out exactly what you want from your schedule. Write down your daily goals and focus your schedule on the best way that will meet those goals.

Sometimes using a planner, or writing out your daily schedule on a white board works to keep everyone focused and headed in the right direction. Whatever your method... be consistent and it will work for you!
