This week in homeschooling: When homeschoolers play hooky

I knew Poppy was going to spend a few days with her grandparents this week, but I neglected to send any schoolwork with her. At the rate we’ve been missing days lately, this school year will last ’til mid-June.

Monday

Poppy spent Monday with her grandparents, and most of the stuff she and Pete do on Mondays is together-work. So we took the day off.

Tuesday

Poppy got home on Tuesday. It was pretty late in the day, though, so we took Tuesday off, too. (This was not the plan.)

Wednesday

It was the one and only day that we actually completed all of our assigned tasks!

Thursday

The kids started a couple of outsourced classes — drama and US history — on Thursday. The classes take a good part of the day, so our Thursday schedule at home is pretty light. And yesterday it was especially light, because we were busy with other things as well. By the time we got home we were all ready to have a break, and suddenly we were ordering pizza and watching “The Great Mouse Detective.”

I think next week we’re going to try to get a few things done before we leave for class. That’ll require me to get up when the alarm goes off, though.

Friday

We don’t have any outings planned, so hopefully we’ll be more on the ball today.
