Year's Lesson Plan Done!

Cutting it close to the finish line (or I should say the first day of school), but I have completely finished our Kindergarten Lesson Plans for the entire school year. Got a late start on them, because I was afraid if I worked on them anticipating homeschooling this year, that I would "jinx" us and our adoption would not be finalized until after the public school had began. Our adoption was final on July 20th, which then has just given me a little over a month to get in gear and get our year planned out. And the year is looking great!

I realize there will be days when our plans will be disrupted, but that's OK. We just will "go with the flow" and make up the missed work and get back on track. That's the best thing about homeschooling. You can arrange your schedule and your lesson plans to fit into your day. Such as I have a Food Sanitation Certification Class coming up. In my lesson plans, I only "number" my lessons instead of assigning a specific date to them. I do this for a couple of reasons: 1) so that should something come up and we miss being able to homeschool for a day or two and can not get it caught up, then we simply can start where we left off and our school year is a day or two longer than originally planned, 2) so that I can use these same plans for Kenna when she is ready to start school, and 3) it also helps me - especially this Kindergarten year - keep track of our school days as we count to Day 100.
