Table Time Schedule

Welcome to our family’s Homeschool Table Time Schedule! These weekly schedules are designed to bring our middle and high school students together for structured, focused learning in a shared space. Table Time provides a consistent routine that encourages collaboration, independent thinking, and family bonding. While each child may work at their own academic level, we begin and end our time together, supporting one another through shared goals, group discussions, and quiet, productive study. This schedule is meant to foster discipline, deepen learning, and make homeschool a connected, enriching experience for the whole family.
