Homeschool Day | Day in the Life Vlog | Thursday, May 15, 2025
Welcome to our Thursday, May 15, 2025 Homeschool Day. I’m homeschooling my 14-year old daughter. On Thursdays, she has some in person classes until 4pm. She also has sports in the evening. Our homeschooling is very abridged on Thursdays but I take the day to prepare lessons when possible.
On Thursdays, I have a Quran class from 8am-9:30am online with Quranic Ocean. It’s amazing!! Classes are coming to an end for this year, but check out the summer session and The One planned for next year.
