first week of school









this was our first week back to homeschooling after what seemed like a very short summer. maybe it was the rain that lasted well into june that made this summer seem so short. im going with a new schedule this year. this is a typical week for the vanclan homeschool








3 days a week all of the kids tackle their math subjects and all of their language arts subjects. these include grammer, literature, reading, spelling etc. 1 day a week we focus on all things science and history....by far my favorite day of the week :) fridays are fun too. this day we set aside for doing reports, experiments and fun activities we normally dont have time for. we also do some group work. we are learning spanish together and doing a bible stdy together. today was our first friday schedule and we al loved it! having chore charts in the kids rooms is really helping to get everything done in a day that needs to be done, without mama having to nag all day.








by the time september rolls around all of our activities will be i full swing. i love that my children have the oppurtunity to have such a well rounded education. the busyness wears me out sometimes but i would not have it any other way.
