When we took a mini break for our Chinese school in late July, my daughter was busy with her fourth-grade school and swimming. Her summer swimming season ended in early August. That was when we had actually resumed the Chinese school also.
During the last few weeks, however, she has had plenty of homework from school, which took up quite a bit of her evening time at home. We were forced to adapt a much slower pace with the Chinese schooling, in which we cover a weekly lesson in two weeks instead of one. This allows her more time to finish the Chinese homework before we start a new lesson. We figure that it is better to do this way instead of trying to maintain a schedule and rush the lessons.
She is now in the middle of three-week "off-track" where she has no school and therefore no school homework. But on the other hand, her Fall soccer season has just got started. We will see if we can get back to the regular schedule.
