Tametable for Homeschooling

Homeschool Schedule

A good calendar is an ingredient not to be forgotten as part of your overall homeschool schedule and homeschool lesson plan.
After taking a high level look at your home school calendar integrated with your family calendar, you may decide that the traditional school year calendar of end of summer through early spring may not be the most advantageous.
There is no stringent time schedule that you must adhere to as is the case in public schools.
As with your home school lesson planning, your scheduling should take into careful consideration your child’s learning style and determine what will work best. If vacations aren’t a part of your plans, there are probably other reasons (such as birthdays) for tailor making your own home school calendar.

While mapping a home school yearly schedule is an excellent idea, remember to allow for flexibility in the schedule. Any school year, especially since the school year is taking place also centered around your home and your family, will have the need for unforeseen breaks and absences.
