A relaxed 3rd grade homeschool schedule

Do you have a 3rd grader? Not sure how their homeschool schedule should look? They’re ready to take on a bit more than last year but you’re not sure how much.

We follow a more relaxed 3rd grade homeschool schedule. I don’t do a timed schedule. That would just freak us all out if we got behind, it’s not my style.

But I do have a task list for my kids to complete so they know what’s expected of them and they know when they’ll be done.

Recommended Daily Schedules

Need something more sturdy? You can try one of these daily schedules, I love visual schedules and as long as it’s easy to implement and you child can see what they’re doing each day, that’s a win.

There are days when my child doesn’t get to everything, however, math, reading and writing are done every day at the very least.

Sometimes science and art get kicked to the curb and I use Friday to catch up on things we missed during the week.

How long should a 3rd grader homeschool?

If she does everything without on her list and doesn’t mess around, she can be one in 3 hours.

They say you should spend an hour for each grade they are in up to 6th grade. Then it’s 6 hours for grade 7 and up.

I want you to use this as a guide, it won’t always be the same. There are things my child can get through pretty quickly and there are other things she doesn’t like and will just space out or find other things to occupy her time so she needs more redirection.

Do we go 3 hours straight? Nope.

There’s snack and outside time in between. We don’t school in the mornings, we get started after lunch, ah love the flexibility of homeschooling.

You might like the weekly schedule instead of setting up a daily one each day so you only have to plan it out once a week.

This looks more clutter and my daughter likes the daily schedule because she attaches it to her clipboard and can get started without me.
