One of the most confusing parts of home schooling is how many hours should you home school your children. Should you have your classes everyday, can you miss a day or two? These are very important questions that you will have to answer when you have a home school.
The great thing about having a home school is that you can be flexible with the hours. You don't have to have classes starting at 8 am every morning. Maybe your child learns better starting at 10am or even in the evening. You can teach them anytime that is best for you.
How do you figure out how many hours you need to teach your children every week?
A lot of parents will have the schedules made by how well the students cover the subjects, and how much material you will have to cover every week. When looking over your planner and your schedule you will be able to determine how many hours it will take to cover the material. In public schools they don't really have lessons for the whole time, they have time between classes, and then each period they have a certain amount of time that it will take to call roll, and get all the students settled. So there isn't that much learning going on. Plus it may take you less time to teach your student because you will be doing one on one with them, letting them learn faster and better.
It is advisable to plan a tentative schedule for your home school, while you can still be flexible with it, your children will know that learning is part of their daily schedule. They will know that during these hours it's time to learn. While you can change it as necessary it's always a good ideal to have a tentative schedule that is the same daily.
