New Master Plan 2009

After having spent quite a bit of time on the Simply Charlotte Mason site last night, I have come up with a new Master Plan for 2009. It implements the Circle Time concept I talked about earlier plus the CM classes that are encouraged. And, in a first for me, I've attached times to each subject. I typically do not do this, but I wanted to be sure that we could cover what I'd like. I think we can. If you'd like to check it out, I turned my table in to a Google Document.

Master Plan 2009

Tell me what you think? Did I bite off too much to chew?

I want to do the four day schedule in order to leave Friday open for other pursuits. I have been asked by a friend to teach a photography class for her son. I'll be including at least Lego-Man if not Conductor & I'm not sure who else will join us. That class will only be twice a month.

I'm also going to attempt to teach the boys piano this year thus the 90 minutes music lessons on Fridays. I only have a keyboard currently but I played growing up & I think I can at least get them started. That is one thing that has been lacking in our homeschool that I really want to remedy. I would love to see the boys graduate knowing at least how to play the piano if not the violin as well.

I'm getting excited for the start of our school year & that is also something that has been lacking lately. I still have a long to-do list of things I want to accomplish before we start. Time to get busy!
