some changes

Lately there are some changes in our homeschool -

.

1. I made XP plan out her weekly schedule.

(she doesn't like it, but I think she needs to learn this)

.

2. We use videos almost everyday.

(XP learns better by watching videos, I downloaded documentaries from Youtube

and science/mathematic videos from Khan Academy)

.

3. Chores, music and art are as important as school.

(no excuses like "I am reading" when asked to do chores)

.

4. One notebooking page every school day.

(learns to jot down notes while reading or watching videos

and later put them into paragraphs)

.

5. Learn only ONE subject at a time.

(for example:

in one week we read the chapter on gases in The World of Chemistry,

watched videos The Discovery of Elements,

and did notebooking pages on Cavendish, Rutherford, Priestly and Berzelius;

the following week we did The Mycenaen Culture)

.
