So, there it is. After reading over 200 entries in the homeschool open house at Tiany's, I decided it was time to make up our schedule. We are all very excited (Katrina wants to start tomorrow). I am trying to figure out where to start with Jack's spelling. We have never done spelling before, so I am starting with third grade words to see if there are any he has missed. So far out of a couple hundred words he has missed 5. Once we figure out where his spelling is, then we will start from there.
This year is going to be so much fun!!!!!
Although I don't go by a schedule, I really enjoyed yours! It's nice to see how much time you alloted per subject. I always worry that we don't work through each long enough ... and that's even after an hour per subject, LOL. Thank you for posting this and easing my mind! :o)

I really enjoyed your entry :) Thanks for visiting my blog earlier! I would love to hear more about the exercises you do with the children each morning. I've been trying to get together some age-appopriate calisthenics (ages 2,5,6) but I can't seem to find what I'm after. Great blog!! This is fun :)
