Preschool Schedule

As we are starting to dip our toe into the waters of homeschooling, I am trying to plan the smoothest way to make this transition without the girls having a whole new adjustment all at one time. I have been thinking about the current routine that we have in place and realized that it is not really conducive to beginning this homeschooling adventure, so I sat down to think about what was missing. I also noticed that we are having an over abundance of television throughout our day because it is hard for me to get housework done when the girls are awake. This is our new schedule that I am going to begin to implement while I am home with the girls, starting on Monday:

7:00 AM-7:45 AM: Breakfast, pick up dishes, wash table
7:45 AM-8:00 AM: Wash hands, brush teeth, wash face
8:00 AM-8:15 AM: Get dressed, put pajamas in laundry (if necessary)
8:15 AM-8:30 AM: Start a load of laundry (girl hand me clothes from the dirty clothes basket)
8:30 AM-9:00 AM: Circle Time (calendar, weather, review shape/color/letter of the week or month, sing a song and read a book)
9:00 AM-9:45 AM: Free Play (play with what ever they want)
9:45 AM-10:00 AM: Clean up toys from free play
10:00 AM-11:00 AM: Play outside (weather permitting- if it is too cold or rainy we will do a gym activity inside such as dancing, musical chairs, follow the leader or go somewhere in the community where they can be active)
11:00 AM-11:45 AM: Lunch, pick up dishes, wash table
11:45 AM-12:00 PM: Wash hands, go potty
