Piney Woods Homeschool

This is my fifth time going through AmblesideOnline 's Year 6 with a student, but the first time I've documented the Year 6 scheduling process. Year 6 is substantially different this time than it was the previous times, so I will have some decisions to make. I will mostly be scheduling Term 1 of Year 6 for this post, although if I make additions that affect the other terms I will usually go ahead and put those in so I don't forget them later.  The first thing I do is download the Word format (.doc) chart from the AO website . I then open my Google Drive to the folder where I keep schedules, then choose Upload a File and load this Word document. Then I have to tell Google to save this as a Google Doc.

Next, I scan down the list of books on the left side of the chart, looking for any title...
