How many days per week do you schedule…

Well, according to the Planning your CM education, you would determine how much of your resources you want to cover in the year or term, then work out how often you need to do it to cover what you want……

But for us…

We did Personal Development book once a week (we did Polite Moments), Foreign Language we did daily, and Geography was once a week. Copywork was also daily.  (once letters were learned, we did one day a scripture, one day a quote from a reading, one day practice a letter needing improvement, and I don’t remember the other day.   I guess I should add that we only schooled 4 days a week (Except math) to leave the 5th day as a “wild day” / nature study day.

I haven’t had a 4th grader yet, so can’t mention the other subjects….

I have a gonna-be-third-grader, a preschooler and a baby.  We do Personal Development (and health) 1 day per week, haven’t started Foreign Language, but will probably do that daily when we do, and copywork daily.  As I have it planned this year, using the Joshua through Malachi handbook, we will “do” Geography once a week, but I plan on having our maps out for reference all the time; kind of like our pictures for picture study. 

I have handiwork ‘instruction’ slated for twice a week, but hope to get into the habit of working on our projects pretty much nightly. 

We end up having kind of a 4 1/2 day week as Thursdays are very light because that’s the day we do all of our “running” in the city.  

I can’t comment on Dictation or Typing, as those aren’t things we’ve grown in to yet.
