If you're short on time for planning and gathering resources, it seems like a good option.
This is actually the problem, although I feel I'm short on time for teaching and am worried that I am short-changing DS. I'm working and he ends up working a lot of the time on his own, which I think isn't fair. It would save time if I didn't have to prepare. And there would be some projects and other hands-on fun stuff. Unfortunately, we're not making homemade cookies around here.
And it is the extras I'm most concerned about - art, music, history, social studies.
Thanks!
