alisha,
ReplyDeletehelp!! i look at your schedule, man & animal lesson block plans & realize that i am, once again, trying to cram too much in.
It's hard- I'm working really hard this year at not cramming too much in.
ReplyDeleteI am especially working at keeping the main lessons simple, not bogged down with lots of work, but just good stories and simple, beautiful crafts, useful or interesting projects, simple main lesson book work. In the past I've piled on so much reading/storytelling on my part, and writing and drawing on his part, that we get so bogged down in work we don't have time for fun.
Balance is my word this year. Er... and breathe!
Balance and breathe, repeat.
