Timberdoodle Scheduler sample

What a week of 1st Grade looks like with the Timberdoodle kit

A typical mid-year 1st Grade week with the Timberdoodle kit: five school days, 8 subjects, and 10 to 11 short checklist items a day.

We asked parents who used our 1st Grade Kit how long their student spent on "school,” and they estimated that their students spent 1-4 hours a day on their kit, working 4-5 days a week.

From “How much time does it take to do the 1st grade kit each day?” on the 1st 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 Classic and Nonreligious kits have the same courses at the Complete level, so this week is the same in both. Basic and Elite add or remove courses; compare the levels on the kit page.

Classic and Nonreligious editions, Complete level

17 courses this week. Not in this particular week: Woodland DIY Garland Kit.
