School Schedule

Our weekly schedule for school has changed with the new school year.
We enrolled the girls in Classical Conversations (CC for short) http://www.classicalconversations.com/academic-programs/foundations-program-k4-6th
and when our parent guide came for the year I was convicted to start the girls on a 30 minute schedule.
We are on day two today, and so far it has been great.  I am having to stretch myself to come up with things for the kids to do, and this way I know they are learning and retaining more of the information I am teaching them.  It should also keep us on track for the school year since we are sure to cover all the subjects the correct number of days per week.

Here is our schedule for Thursday.
