Can anyone relate? We are in week 3 of our 4 week swim lesson stint and when I’m not wiping the sweat off or spraying the baby girl down with cold water, I’m lesson planning like crazy! I never would have imaged that my days lounging by the pool would actually be research and planning sessions! But I’d have it no other way… 🙂
For many of us, it’s that time of year again… A time to make plans. I simultaneously LOVE lesson planning and also have a few ‘deer in the headlights’ moments when everything seems a little daunting. Thankfully, there is a remedy for that. I’m sharing how I go about breaking this process down over at Holy Spirit-Led Homeschooling! Have you ever been over there before? I’m tickled pink to start contributing on a monthly basis with a phenomenal group of ladies! So while you are over there, take a look around! I guarantee that you’ll leave encouraged!
Swim lessons are also proving to be a huge flashback to my childhood days at the pool. I think it must have something to do with the resurgence of the neon 80’s sunglasses…

LOL I was doing that same thing last week. Lesson planning during swim lessons!

I can totally relate to what you’re doing while sitting by the pool! Since our newest baby is (supposedly) coming soon, I’ve done my research and planned out our curriculum for next year, but I have had some days where I’ve done some curriculum “showing” to others by a pool. SO fun! We must be nerdy homeschool moms. 😉
