Episode Details

Every year I finish the homeschool year kinda lackluster. And you know what? I’m good with that. I recognize it for what it is: a season. That’s exactly why I do a Homeschool Year End Review — and why I think every homeschool mom should too.

Because, seriously, what are the chances I’m gonna love every dang minute of this homeschool thing?

And when else would I feel homeschool fatigue? At the end of the homeschool year! (Oh, and February, cause ya know: slump month…Oh, and usually about year two or three of our homeschool journey when I need to have a giant shift from “how I thought homeschool would be” to “how homeschool actually is”…Anywho, I digress…)

In this post, you’ll discover my approach to the Homeschool Year-End Review — and how it sets you up to actually enjoy your summer instead of dreading September.

Finish Your Year With a Homeschool Mom Year End Review

If we do a homeschool year end review now, I don’t have to return to it in July. I can sit by my watering hole of choice and not think about homeschool planning.

By the end of May, I usually close the homeschool room door and don’t return till early July.

I let stuff sit.
The books get closed.
The planner gets closed.
And we just shift into a season of being outdoors.

And you know what? We all need it after that point. A chance to recollect our ideas about last year, check what worked, check what didn’t, and springboard into the new year with ideas that did work and new ideas I want to include.

If you’re there and want to springboard — join me at the Homeschool Year End Review.
