I know I'm not the only one. We're due in less than 2 months and I'm not so worried as how schooling will get done I guess, I figured we'd take a break, but I didn't count on completely flaking out early on
I feel like I have no patience for the simplest lesson, and for us that's math and lang arts. It's been tough getting started and then getting through it.
Is it a pregnancy thing-like focused on end stuff for baby? I don't wan't to fall too far behind, we did last year, it's possible, but feel maybe I should relax a bit on things? We're using Singapore math, so it's fairly easy to keep up with, but we're using Phonics road to spelling/reading, and if we start skipping too many days, we get way behind. I've thought about having the kids watch the dvds, but still would have to do the lesson/writing part.
I also feel like this year I wanted to do some unit studies-mainly for the 3rd grader-a few weeks on US history/landmarks, few weeks on holidays, stuff like that. But I feel like I can't get anything together and now wondering if once baby does get here, if everything will fall apart. Dh mentioned earlier this year how he doesn't know how I'll do it, and I assured him all will be fine, but now I'm major second guessing myself.
