This is the basic plan for our school days and it has been going pretty smooth so far. I had to change some subjects for Bethany & Isaiah as they just took too long to complete.. so for now Saxon Phonics & Saxon Math have gone on the shelf and we have switched to Abeka Math & flash cards & Starfall and Adventures in Phonics and lots of reading aloud for phonics & reading.. I really like the Charlotte Mason approach with Isaiah & Bethany.. doing no more than 20 min on one subject and then changing to something completely different.
