A race to the finish

Everyone in my family is sick of "Quiet School." Quiet School is where each child has independent work to complete. Compared to Loud School where we all work together on language arts, science and history, it's just a bore. When we realized that due to some oversights on my part, the younger members of our home school would be finished by the end of April, the older members started a race to see if they could finish their quiet school by the same deadline.
I'm very impressed with my second child's progress in particular. Last year she really struggled with quiet school time. We actually gave up and focused on loud school. She redid last year's quiet school assignments this year, and she is way ahead of her older sister. All of her science and Bible are complete for the year. It's been nice to change up the schedule and try something different for these last few weeks. Here's hoping we can spend May devoted to the fun things we do in loud school.
