If you are the type of person who thrives on a schedule, by all means, make one for your school day. But if the thought of trying to stay on schedule while manageing the rest of your home stresses you out, try using a checklist instead. Simply make a daily (or weekly) list of material that will be covered, and cross it off as you go. Using a checklist gives you more freedom in deciding how each day plays out and allows for more breaks and interruptions.
