My Homeschool Day – Way Back When

I thought it might be fun to share here what a normal school day at home looked like when I was growing up. Things changed over the years as we were able to do even more on our own as that was the structure of our curriculum. We also had younger siblings that we enjoyed caring for and teaching so our schedule shifted a bit.
