Fresh start to homeschool

I had grand plans to do more in homeschool in 2015 after 2014 was so crazy with all of Lamb 2's therapy. I was too idealistic and we didn't get as much done as I would have liked. We did well on the main subjects but not much extra. Glenda posted about memory work here several months ago. I think this is what we need, instead of trying to do some subjects so many times every week, I need to just think of what we need to do one day at a time. Here is my 2016 plan. (These are all the "extras" to our homeschool curriculum, what we listen to or recite.)

2016 Memory Work Daily Schedule
Monday
Luther's Morning Prayer
Hymn
Catechism
Poetry

Bible Verse
Math Songs
Latin

Science Songs
Grammar Jingles

Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

We'll see how this goes and adjust as necessary. I think it will be a great help to me to know that at the most we just have to do 8 extra subjects a day. It should also help that I don't have to prepare everything new for Mondays.
