I want to give you a realistic look inside an average homeschool day for my 3rd grader. I would love to hear what your days look like! 7th grade coming up later this week.
I made the little daily checklist that you recommended thats in a sleeve so she can use a dry erase marker to check as she does her work. But her day is usually the same but sometimes different depending on what she picks (I have a few options she can do for each subject). Math: "mental minute" adding/subtracting fast paced game + 2 BrainQuest workbook pages. 1 "driving test" from Reading Express Mathseeds program. Reading: 1 online library book either science or social studies + quiz (I made 2 lists of books she gets to highlight when she's finished). Reading Eggspress Map level: from Reading Eggs app that she does on the computer. + Reading Eggs "driving test". 2 BrainQuest workbook pages 15 minutes of "music" at this point since she's only 6 I basically let her do anything music related for 15 minutes. Spelling: "Skills Bank" from Reading Eggspress program Elective: she can choose from time, money, geography, human body, a board game, etc. but lately we've been doing holiday free printable activities Some days take FOREVER like all day... but it's because she isn't focused or distracted... other days she can do everything in about 2 hours. Then when dad comes home from work we have her recap what she remembers from the day, if anything 😂
Those recaps are the worst!! Did they get some brilliant nuanced piece of the lesson that will stay with them always or, and most commonly, THEY CAN RECOUNT NOTHING!!
@MakingEverydayMagic exactly! I've tried everything at this point to try and help her remember and nothing seems to work ... but I remember as a kid never being able to answer "what I learned at school" either lol

Michael Clay Thompson is wonderful! I was impressed with son, too, when he first started doing the sentence analysis by himself.
It's amazing! I'm picking up some grammar😅😅😅
What are you using for building language? Is that part of MCT? Love your videos! They’re so informative and detailed.
The Building Language book is a part of the MCT program it is latin stems and vocabulary.
I like the shredder idea.
New favorite thing in our house. Who knew?!?!?🤣
