scheduling

I've never been a strict scheduler. Sure our day would follow a loose schedule of mealtimes, snack times as well as naptimes but nothing written down.

Well now I'm rethinking that a little and only as it pertains to school. Our whiteboard listed which subjects we would be studying that day but not like "from 8:00 am - 8:30 am - Science". I'm still not sure I want to do it that way as I like the flexibility in going longer or shorter depending on what we're studying that day. If I went over, I would be stressing that I was going over schedule.

However, I feel disorganized during the school morning and need something.

The subjects we are currently studying are as follows:

Math
Math drills
Classical Music
Drawing/ History of Art
World History - currently Middle Ages
Student writing: Middle Ages
Vocab/Spelling
Science - Maddie & Ava: Botany, Lauren: General Science
Bible Study: Proverbs
Memory Verses
Read out loud: 50 Famous Stories as well as Trial & Triumph: Stories from Church History
Piano lessons: Thursday
Practice piano: 30 mins daily

Lauren has as well:
Logic
More writing
Latin (to be added)

Then Ellie:
Math
Reading/writing

Grae:
Numbers/Shapes

Wow. That is quite the list. We don't do every subject everday so see why I need a schedule! I guess I just need to sit down and work it through. Not my favorite thing. If I do manage it, I'll post it here.

Oh wow! You must be doing classical education? I have been seriously considering switching to that.
