I’m Having A Bad Homeschool Day #homeschool

What to do on bad homeschool days

1. Stop 🛑 breathe 😮‍💨and pray 🙏
2. Take a timed nap 😴 (have the kids lay down for quiet time) & eat 🌮 something
3. Apologize to my kids 👩‍👧‍👦

Ending on a positive note helps rebuild the bonds with my kids, it helps us experience a win that will help us start strong tomorrow.

It sets the example for my kids that we are human and we have limits, we need rest, and substance, we can’t do the hard things without the help of God. So when we are struggling we run to him and then we press on in His strength not our own.

Mom of 6 too and this is gold! Gold! Yes!!! This is what I try to remember to do- but sometimes when we neglect basic needs it’s going to be harder! Thank you for sharing your tips and heart with the world!

That’s the truth ❤ today we had a rough school day & it is hard to spin wheels with 100 other things that have to get done while school isn’t moving at the speed we expect🐢
Thank you for being real ❤We need more of it.
Teaching is hard. Caring for children is tough & keeping the house running smoothly is an uphill battle.
Ending the day on 1 win is genius. A break & snack definitely help too 👍🏼

Way to go! I love this. 💗🙏Just had a day like this. Still fairly new into actual homeschool (vs a restrictive Charter). After a breath I calmly reminded my child and myself that we can accomplish things at our pace, and in our way. (Lounging = fine, scented candle white reading book, snacks ok..) ✨ Prayer is definitely a great thing to remember to do too!

TBH Charter school was starting to become a stress bomb, even virtual meetings with incompetent people that did not listen to how to adjust for my special needs kid, and were wasting our time. I started to dread every meeting. Was too drained with the red tape of the situation as well. SO many forms to read and sign, mostly redundant information or another way for them to pay someone to asses that won't know/do anything except based on the knowledge I give them after hours of typing it all up.

Finally I can fully plan in a way that's efficient for us, and less stress means my child is more likely to cooperate and to retain information!

Or, you could just send your children to a place where they have professionals, tutorials, other students, regulated breaks and classes and social interaction...You know..School.
