Confession: It was very fun and super enlightening to create the schedule. Amazing, color coded, fabulousness. But I am a free spirit, and the truth is I was never able to truly follow it. I still think making it benefitted us though. Eventually, I found what worked best for us was making a giant– reasonable–checklist of our 6 most important school things to do that day on a wipe-off board. I let the boys pick what order they did them in as much as possible. They loved that. They would even coordinate together to share the iPad for Classical Conversations and things like that.
