Schedule help for an 8th grade student – Anyone love to make sched, please help!

My first question is, is doing things like a foreign language only 2 days a week really enough to remember it?

I need my daughter to be fairly independent because I work outside the home, does that leave CM out?

I need help making a subject schedule because I cannot wrap my head around only doing things 2 or 3 days a week and it being enough? Trying to keep things short for her to encourage her to want to learn.  If anyone can put these things together for me in a way that it is not overdoing but not under doing it.  She needs to be more motivated.  It is hard for me because a lot of times I just do not feel like it once I get home from work but I know I need to.

Here are the subjects we do and the subjects we would like to fit in:

Perplexors – 1 puzzle, 3 days a week

Fallacy Detective – 1 day

Current Events with World Magazine – Was getting her to read an article everyday but thinking I should do just 1 a week.

Math – everyday

Reading – She reads a literature book for 45 mins. everyday

Spelling – We were doing some dictation but I am going to a list and making picture cards as suggested by Dianne Craft.  She struggles with spelling, apparently cannot see the words in her mind.  Also, started doing 1 quick phonics rule a day with a book called Apples.

Grammar – Fix It Grammar, one sentence a day, 4 days a week.

Vocabulary – Using Vocabulary Cartoons book.  Learning a word a day by a picture.

Typing – 3 days a week

Writing – Just do not know what to do.  She tells back a story good but cannot put it in writing.  I am having her begin writing a sentence for each paragraph she reads in her Biology and Chemistry chapter by Sabbath Mood Homeschool guides.  We just began this.  I was going to do a simple writing program, Wordsmith Apprentice, maybe a couple of days a week.  Also, maybe a readers response journal with her literature book, one question a day.

Science – Just began SabbathMood, will see how this goes.

History – We have failed to do alot of History.  So I have her doing Story of the World 1 right now.  She loves it because it is easy.  She answers questions and does about a 5 sentence oral narration of the very short chapter for me. I figured she could do this since next year she would need to begin with American History for high school.

Things she would like to do:

Foreign Language, Spanish – What and how many days?

Things I’d like to do:

Memory Work – Scripture

Geography – Map work, how many days a week.  Just filling in 3 things at a time until can do without the key.

Shakespeare – Want to read with her and memorize as in Ken Ludwig book

Games – Quick brain training game when I get home

Poetry – She says that she does not like poetry.  I was thinking of making her read a couple of poems and a fairy tale on Fridays, instead of her 45 minutes in her literature book?

How would you schedule all of this?  I appreciate any help!
