Back at it
Hi everyone. The last time I homeschooled my son was in kindergarden. Then we moved to NY which turned out to NOT be a homeschool friendly state (at least not where we lived). Now we're back in California (San Diego) and are starting again.
My son is in 5th grade and my daughter is in 1st. We're using the K12 curriculum through California Virtual Academy. I love the curriculum...though I'm having trouble getting everything done each day.
I was wondering if anyone could give some advice for homeschooling 2 kids at once. I keep on trying to get my son to do some independent work but he's reluctant to do so. They both want one on one time with me. Normally I wouldn't mind, but as I said we're having trouble getting everything done as it is.
I've decided to not worry so much about how much time we have to get work done. I figure we can work till 2 or 3 and then do whatever we missed after dinner. The kids both seem pleased with that idea. So we'll see.
Any advice, though, would be most welcome!
