Timberdoodle Scheduler sample

What a week of 5th Grade looks like with the Timberdoodle kit

A typical mid-year 5th Grade week with the Timberdoodle kit: five school days, 8 subjects, and 12 to 13 short checklist items a day.

We asked parents who used our 5th Grade Kit how long their student spent on "school,” and they estimated that their students spent 2-5 hours a day on their kit, working 4-5 days a week.

From “How much time does it take to do the 5th grade kit each day?” on the 5th Grade kit page.

A week from the middle of the year

Laid out by the Scheduler itself, the way it builds a family’s schedule: Monday to Friday, with the standard Complete kit. The two editions differ in a few courses: the Classic kit has Jump In Bundle and America the Beautiful, and the Nonreligious kit has Daily 6-Trait Writing Grade 5, Weekly Real-World Writing Grades 5-6 and Discover! Social Studies 5 instead. Basic and Elite add or remove courses; compare the levels on the kit page.

Classic edition, Complete level

14 courses this week. Not in this particular week: Amazing World War II Stories, How to Paint Watercolour Animals.
