Feeling guilty about not having a 'set' schedule!

No, it is not wrong to not have a set schedule. It is okay. Look at it this way.............it doesn't matter how the learning occurs or when it occurs, just so it does occur. As long as she is gaining the knowledge, it doesn't matter whether you follow a certain schedule each day. (That line of thinking comes from our 'traditional school' mentality.)

Variety keeps things from getting boring. Why be boring if you dont have to be?

That's how my homeschooling was when I was younger, except even more unscheduled. My version of homeschooling was pretty much "Here's a book. Learn it". I'm guessing this approach worked since I going to be taking college classes this fall (I just turned 15). So, don't feel guilty about not having a "classroom" type homeschooling environment. In my opinion, adopting a rigid, traditional classroom environment practically defeats the purpose of homechooling a child.
