Here’s the first post in a new weekly feature at Semicolon. I’m planning to post these tips on Thursdays since the Weekly Slump hits about then in this house/homeschool. This week Molly at My Three Pennies Worth gives a long and detailed answer to this question (worth reading):
“Help–I have a housefull of little children, my house is a wreck, I am totally overwhelmed–so what curruculum do you use to homeschool when you hardly have time to implement anything as it is?”
Her answer (which I have learned by experience): Focus on the three R’s, Readin’, Ritin’, and ‘Rithmetic.
Make sure younger children do some reading some writing, and some math every day, and add in the “extras” as you have time, energy, and inspiration. Really, it works, and the inspiration will come eventually.
Sherry, your link to this article is not working. I think you need to add an “l” to the end to make it “html”.
Thanks. I fixed it.
