Here is a look into my day of homeschooling 10th, 5th, and 2nd grade. I have five kids but 4 are doing the same grade as a sibling 😉

My boys have been starting school before my girls for a while now but since I switched my twins to the Teaching Textbooks app they have been starting early also!

My twins take turns eating so while one is eating breakfast and getting ready the other usually starts her math for the day.

I have really liked our switch to Teaching Textbooks for my twins so far! It has basically helped me keep my sanity, for the most part.

The first things my boys work on are their dual enrollment classes through a local college.

They are taking physics and composition this semester through them. There have been some hiccups that made me question all my life choices but they are doing well. I just realize that I don’t like working around other people’s time tables. Ha

After eating and morning chores are done we usually go for a walk, I had one that was tired this day so we opted for just playing outside (she also did not want to be in any pictures so one is missing from our day).

After our outside break my youngest starts on her books. One on phonics and one that helps with switching B’s and D’s. While my twins finish up math and if they are being fast they will start on their folder work, phonics and handwriting.

Next they eat lunch while watching an educational video or a cooking video(which I still call educational) and do quiet time. Sometimes the girls will read or they listen to an audiobook during quiet time. The boys do the same. I hide in my room…

After quiet time it can get a bit crazy as I try to work with my youngest on her math and my twins usually need help with their folder work. No one is allowed to ask me for help if I am helping someone else which has really helped with me feeling overwhelmed.

Next up is reading, all three of my youngest kids read aloud to me everyday.

My twins are currently reading “Heroes in Black History” by Dave and Neta Jackson for their history. They were reading aloud an abeka science before this.

I like to sneak history and science in with their reading, audiobook listening or our nightly read alouds instead of trying to do a specific curriculum for those things.

This is the end of our school day.

We are usually done by 2pm.

My boys are pretty much independent except for me checking over history assignments and making sure they are getting their work done.

I really enjoy looking over how our day has changed over the years!

Here is the last one I did in 2018! Our Homeschool Day ~2018

I had planned to do one of these so many times over the last several years but every time it ended up being a REALLY rough day! This day was not super easy but I decided done was better than perfect! Ha
