Creating a schedule

nope. the only thinking you can do to balance your sched for work and for your daughter is to happy and calm thinking of her when your break time and also check her trice a day. and try to contact your family member who is free and ask for her/him a favor to look for your daughter while your out on work and if you like you can pay her/him for that. that's the way i only knew for what you are looking for balance & affortability.

Hi, I have been homeschooling for a long time about 13 years now, I have several children so I will be continuing this Lord willing for at least ten more years or so. Anyway I can tell you what you may think about doing, and that is writing you own schedule and curriculum out. If you have access to the internet and a good library and have a printer, paper and ink you can homeschool for a very low cost. I will tell you a secret too, that people who are new to home education or who know little about it don't know. And that is it does not take as long to homeschool as it does to send your child away to school. I am not sure how old you daughter is, so I will give you a couple of suggestions then you can work with that okay? First thing is to make sure your daughter can follow directions well. And you can do this by assignng age approperiate chores early in the day. Things such as when you get up you make your bed, straighten up your room, etc. Then teach her to follow a recipe, this is math, reading, science and following directions, plus home economics all combined into one. (you knew that right) If you have the space and ability help your daughter plant a garden, this is science, math, and can even be a small business venture if you allow her to sell some of the produce later on. She will have to keep track of what she plants, sells, etc. I could go on and on, But basically you need to think about what it is you want for your daughter and what your family values are, and why you are homeschooling, if you are homeschooling because you feel as I do that this is a biblical mandate for parents then your values will be different than someone who is at the other extreme of the spectrum of homeschoolers, (there are even homeschoolers that are pagan) If you are homeschooling based on your faith then that should be the central theme to your school. And you can use just what you have around your home to homeschool. There have been years when we have used just the Bible and chores and a notebook for handwriting and spelling, and the library for everything else. You may not have thought of it but there are a lot of every day things that have to be done that can fall under the heading of school work,, things such as following a recipe, planting a garden, caring for pets, organizing things around the home, even sorting laundry, depending on the age of your daughter your expense can be higher or lower, If you go with a prepackaged curriculum you will spend a lot of money, if you can buy used that is better, if you can design your own curriculum that is even better. And it is affordable. Also there is a lot of free information on the internet, you can check out the hillbillyhousewife website, and she has not only recipes, and tips to help save money but she also has a free online curriculum. Another site with a free online curriculm is Ambleside online (this site uses the Charlotte Mason method, she was a teacher from the early nineteen hundreds or maybe earlier I don't remember right now, it is late and I need to go to bed. If I can help you or point you to someone who can let me know okay. Also think about joining or starting a homeschool group that way you can have more support for when things are not easy, some times homeschooling is hard. But you can do it,
