Are we getting our school work completed? If not, am I happy with the detour?<\/h3>\n<h3>2. Is our household out of control?<\/h3>\n<h3>3. Are we enjoying most of our days?<\/h3>\n<h3>4. Do I look forward to a new day with my kids?<\/h3>\n<h3>5. Are we a slave to the curriculum or is it working for us?<\/h3>\n<h3>6. Am I keeping up with my records? Grading? Responsibilities?<\/h3>\n<h3>7. Are we often late or absent to activities we have joined?<\/h3>\n<h3>8. What things would I like to be different?<\/h3>\n<h3>9. What is best about our school day?<\/h3>\n<h3>10. What areas need more of my attention?<\/h3>\n<h3>11. Do we need less or more social involvement?<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Do what&#8217;s important now.<\/h2>\n<p>Obviously, this list could be quite lengthy, but it\u2019s important for you to concentrate on what is most important to you now. Purposely limit yourself to just a few questions and look for solutions to try out.<\/p>\n<p>Too many changes are much harder to keep track of than just a few. You don\u2019t have to choose areas that are in need of improvement. You can focus on what is going right and recommit yourself to it!<\/p>\n<p>Share your review below in the comments to help others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a friendly reminder to take some time and assess your homeschool days.
