Today I am sharing our school day from yesterday Feb. 19.
Everyone is up and dressed by 8:30 and has started morning chores. There is little complaining since they were told that once done we had plans outside the house. We went sledding. 6 inches of new snow and temperatures actually above freezing made it a great morning to go sledding. My husband was looking more forward to the Starbucks treat after.
10:45 We are back home and starting the work.
First up for Joey is reading. He is slowly working his way through Nate the Great with Daddy.
Alex is working on finishing a science experiment. What happens when the water from salt water dries up. While waiting she decides to start History.
Joey then moves on to Handwriting and lots of phonics work.
I start making lunch and in the middle of it realize that the bottom of the fridge is better bad so I quickly clean it up.
Lunch is at 12. Today’s lunch is Tuna Melts and Chicken Noodle soup.
After lunch chores and Bible time Peter and I head out to his parents house to drop off the tax forms. Joey decides to spent his free time with a computer game, Alex reads her book.
1pm we are back home and Daddy helps Alex clean up the bird cage and mess around the cage.
1:30 Hubby is off to work. The kids and I head off for the every other week shopping trip. (This is normally a Friday but it is suppose to be cold and I would prefer to go when it is warmer.) Today’s trip include Costco and Pick N Save.
4pm We are back home. Joey heads outside to play and Alex is back to reading her book. (It must be a good book).
The evening progresses with kids finding there own dinners and Lego playing. There is some computer time too.
7:30 Joey is off to bed and Alex is headed to the shower.
8:30 Joey has fallen asleep and Alex is in bed. I head to Target to get the few items I have left on my shopping list.
9:30 I am home and working on lesson plans for next week and cleaning the house.
Midnight. Hubby is home and we head to bed.
This was not a typical day at all but I am so glad I decided to write about it since I now see that we did actually get some school work done.
Thanks for stopping by
