Now that school is in full swing, it’s back to the daily grind.
Of course soccer practice is a major part of our week, and my girls have practice back to back on the same two days of the week. It’s great because it leaves the other days free, but it’s difficult to get homework done. Little soccer girl has it must easier and is able to get almost everything completed in the hour we have at home after school, but my middle schooler is a different story. Fortunately she often has a friend to join in what they call a “homework party.”
We have some strategies that we use to make things easier, including the “Homework Box” that I’ll share in a different post, but a soccer field is still not the optimal place to be doing homework. As daylight savings time comes to an end and night will fall even before the first practice begins, I’m going to have to make some adjustments. I’ll keep you posted if I have any brilliant ideas…or maybe I’ll just need to pick up a couple of these…
