Can’t believe it has come to this; obviously it won’t last, but it might give me something to work at.

lol – I like the ‘random topics of interest’ day, myself!
Interesting though, i was wondering about doing this sort of thing (at least in my head) with Joe … but it might not ever get further than my head!

Even I have come to it Merry.
Me who cannot organise a pot rota has three curriculums on the go for 6 kids, complete with timetables. I will never say never again.
Amanda says
erm, there is something in the air or maybe great minds ;0) plan a :school plan b: buy a curriculum & sort out a timetable…
Kath says
LOL, I have a topic per afternoon too, but it only happens if we aren’t going out somewhere and nothing more interesting happens. Nice to have a subject area to fall back on when nothing seems to come together by itself though, and it means we do actually do some science or whatever sometimes. I’m intrigued by the music coming under normals – practicing an instrument or something else? And what does planned reading/narration involve?
Sarah, Dino and Mimi says
Totally off topic but are NaNo-ing again this year?

Definitely something in the air. Seems to be working for us though, maybe a timetable’s not so bad when used in a relaxed way.
