"How do I know if #amblesideonline is going to fit

"How do I know if #amblesideonline is going to fit my super tight schedule?"

** HOT TIP **

I started using a trick (you might find it helpful) when I was planning for @providenceclassicalacademy — we draw from AO, but our team writes curriculum, gathering from a number of sources.

In addition to this, school schedules are different from AO homeschooling: fewer weeks, days off for midweek holidays, exam weeks are different, etc. A school cannot do as much as my homeschool.

My friends, MATH CAN SAVE YOU COUNTLESS HOURS. If you have a tight schedule, please be a geek when it comes to planning!!

So let's say I've blocked out three history slots per week for the 35 weeks of school, but that includes 2 exam weeks. Hmmm ... that sounds like I need only 33 weeks of actual assignments. Here is the math:

HISTORY= 33 weeks x 3 readings = 99 readings per year

This is way low, but just go with it. The actual number is not the point; DOING MATH BEFORE YOU PLAN is the point.

Do you see all the handwritten numbers on that AO chart in the picture? That's how many readings were in a given book in a term. I added up all the history readings (I assume each chapter is a separate reading so if two chapters were assigned in a week, that's TWO assignments at a school unless chapters are super short).

Let's say I found AO had 135 history assignments (I totally made this number up). I only have 99 slots, remember? I have to cut something. It might be a whole book; it might be chapters of books. It's a wisdom call at that point.

But do you see what happened? I did NOT spend hours assigning readings to slots only to run out of slots at the end of a long process and have to start tinkering, moving things around, and probably messing up a number of things along the way.

MATH IS YOUR FRIEND, especially if you have a very limited schedule.

My homeschoolers can do much more in a week than a school. I don't worry so much about math. But if we were really tight on time because of doctor appointments, therapies, or farm work (like some families I know), I would do the math for my homeschool the way I do it for the private school.

Make sense?

Homeschool planning for the wary and weary, simple

Homeschool planning for the wary and weary, simple step 3: check the master list and print anything that needs to be printed.

ALL OF IT. FOR THE WHOLE YEAR.

You will never remember otherwise. 🤪

Also, you will never be as motivated as you are right now (which isn't saying much). 😬

Pro tip: I use storage clipboards. I print the assignment spreadsheet for the week and clip it on top. Inside, I stuff All The Things — all the random historical documents, all the poetry, etc. I have printed for the year.

Homeschool planning for the wary and weary, simple step 2: print the list of all the books and make the children gather them up. Bonus points if you can no longer reach your desk. 🤣

Bonus step: order the books you apparently lost. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Pray they arrive before you need them. 🙏🏻

Step one of school planning: setting the academic

Step one of school planning: setting the academic calendar for the year.

Some years, I don’t feel very motivated to get into the thick of planning. It’s helpful to have a set calendar before I start, and it’s an easy first step before really digging into my process.

Last year, I figured out we can complete our curriculum in 35 weeks instead of 36 if I am strategic. 🥳 That was a nice bonus. 😬

New curriculum is rolling in at my house!

Here’s a little efficiency secret of mine: it’s helpful to combine what can be combined, even if that means waiting a little to teach it.

Obviously, advice like this has its limits. Math, for example, is best taught at the level the child is ready for, when he is ready for it.

But logic?

Well, because of the nature of our family, where the three children at home were all born in 3.5 years, I decided to wait and teach them all at once. (It helps that they are often all ready for things at the same time.)

Combining three grades is more complicated than combining two; it’s often inappropriate. But in this situation, it works. And while I love logic and look forward to teaching it, I’m fine with teaching it once rather than three separate times.
