Home schooling results after 4 weeks

While Danny was oviously not challenged enough at school we decided 4 weeks ago to teach him at home with the usage of online teacher services.
Another reason was that the aircon at school was turned up to the limit and i got myself looking in the classroom for icicles on the ceiling.Danny was often sick through that and went thinner and thinner to the day i promised him,that he don't have to go there anymore.Since that day his appetite is back and he's eating canstantly a hole in my wallet.:)
Back to topic:
We are teaching him for 2-3 hours 5 days a week in 30 min. blocks with 20 min. play-breaks between.
In the morning he is starting with me to read for the first 30 min.,maths is done after a break,usually with Michaela.He's sometimes coming by himself with a book and ask's one of us if we would mind to read with him.We didn't do any english lessons with him yet because at first he should concentrate on german reading and grammar,at least for another 2 months in our opinion.
We made school fun for our son,what oviously works.
