M's Daily Schedule based on Ambleside Online Year 1
Daily Schedules for week: 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31 33 35 Free reads
Both of M's previous K schedules (linked from here) were just practice; I knew we'd probably not follow through because she wasn't ready for school, and I was okay with that. Now, at 7 years old, she has officially started Year 1 and we're following this schedule pretty closely. She said the activities I scheduled last year (Play-doh, coloring, etc.) were her favorite part of school, so I scheduled those again. So far, so good - week 1 went well. :-) I have two Milo Winter illustrated versions of Aesop's fables and they have different page numbers; that's why each story lists two page numbers.
