This is how I plan XP's schooling,
every afternoon (weekdays), she does her Chinese, English & Mathematic mostly on her own.
.
At night we do either science or geography/history together,
after that we have our bedtime story.
.
Wednesdays are for art/craft or cooking related to what she is learning,
and Saturdays she joins in the art class which I hold in my studio.
.
.
I don't make long term planning,
just plan for 4 weeks in advance,
then add in the 5th week after end of week one,
then 6th week after end of week two......
.
This schedule is a long piece of pasted A4 papers,
like an acordian book;
and is written with pencil so that changes can be made when is needed.
.
.

.
.
Now we are doing prehistory, I use 2 books.W stands for Encyclopedia of World History and F stands for Fossil.
Page 18-19 in book W has to be done together with book F page 14-15,
then Page 20-21 in book W with page 8-9 in book F.
.
.
But it is very troublesome and confusing to always have to refer to the schedule,
.
so this colour stickers came in handy.
.
.
I put the stickers with the same colours on the pages I need to do together.......
.
for example,
.
Blue stickers on these pages, which talk about evolution,.
and orange stickers on these, about the first life form..
.
Another reason to use these stickers is because XP always wanted to read more,
what we do is just go to the next "stickered" pages and continue.
