Stressed?
When you have a day that is just too overwhelming, take a break, have some fun, and remind yourself of some of the real benefits of homeschooling.
Rest, Regroup, Rejuvenate, Reorganize!
If time is an issue, maybe doing an interactive computer curriculum for a bit may help.
If burn out is the problem, take some time off. There is nothing wrong with that. Have a couple of teacher workdays for yourself. Maybe you could have a few field trip days where you and the kids explore.
Mix things up a bit. Change the way you are doing things. Ask the kids what they want to learn about. Feed off their ideas, return the fun to learning. The beautiful thing of homeschooling is that you are never bound to one thing.
Switch it up, give it a twist and it will become new for you.

Banned Books Week
Banned Books Week celebrates the Freedom to Read during the last week of September each year. 2006 is the 25th anniversary of this annual ALA event which reminds Americans not to take this precious democratic freedom for granted.
Who topped the chart as the Most Challenged Book of the 21st Century (2000-2005)? The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling.
