#1: Heart & Soul Time
Whole Family Learning Together

about 1–1.5 hours

The focus for this part of the day is on developing three vital relationships:
1. the relationship each of us have with the Lord
2. the relationships we as family members
3. the relationship each of us have with learning

This focus is implemented through the lens of history, scripture, music, art, poetry, and story. 
Additionally, language arts skills such as reading, vocabulary, memorization, writing/journaling, speaking, and listening are naturally developed through the activities carried out during this time. 

The Parent Learning Guides provide more information on implementing this each day.

#2: Heart & Mind Time
Alpha, Zeta, Theta Learning with the Parent

about 1.5 hours

During this time, the parent completes language arts, math, history, and/or science learning activities with the children in the Alpha, Zeta, and Theta steps. The Parent Learning Guide provides direction on how to structure this part of the day.

The activities and structure for your family's Heart & Body Time will be very specific to your family's needs, interests, and ages along with the climate in which you live and the season in which you complete each unit.  In each Parent Guide you will find a list of list of activities that align with the specific themes of the unit (history, language arts, science, math). Your family may choose to be physically active and improve physical skills of the body by participating in any of the activities and field trips listed. We invite you to plan these Heart & Body Time activities according to your specific schedule.
