I am very organized and I prepare weekly schedules for my kids. They have the subject, page numbers, worksheets, etc. they are to do for that particular day.
What I like about homeschooling is that if something is not working out, you have so many choices in which to choose from.
I can't begin to tell you how many math programs we have tried. Finally, Saxon math to the rescue. I am amazed at how much my kids are learning with this program as opposed to a math program such as ABeka.
The History Channel ? Watching it at school, they choose what is to be watched. When watching it at home, we choose.
I'm not sure about unschooling. I do enjoy reading about how others approach homeschooling.
