Schools are closed. Kids are home. We're all "homeschooling" our kids now, so we MUST stick to some sort of schedule while we wait out the Coronavirus. Here are a few schedules for at-home school so that we all--kids, parents, pets, you name it!--stay as sane as possible. This is not a homeschool curriculum; it is simply a way to schedule your kids' time while they are home so that they do some learning while they're there!
