planning for next school year

Believe it or not, I’m already beginning to plan our next school year. We’re not quite done with this year, but as my children have gotten older I feel like I need to start thinking further than a day or two ahead!

Over the summer, I will be sharing a little about what we will do next year. I’ve added some of the books we use to the Book Shop and will continue to add them as we plan out our year. It works best for me to loosely plan out the entire year during the summer and then I just have to follow my plan during the crazy school year. I haven’t always done this, I used to wake up each morning and then decide what we would do! oh, I miss those days!

Some subjects don’t take much planning, math, for instance. You just do the next lesson. But other subjects like history and science take a little more thought and preparation. I already know what we are using for some areas and others, I’m still deciding. I’m kind of a creature of habit, so if I’ve already used a resource and liked it, I probably won’t change. It’s just the way I am…kind of lazy like that.

Well, it’s drama week and we have performances tonight and tomorrow night. I’m hoping to have some pictures up on Saturday of the play and of the AWANAS Award Night which was last night. Now, if only I can find my phone, which is also now my only camera…

Thanks for sharing with your friends!
