This is the second installment of Tidal Learning Tuesday. I received so many wonderful emails telling of how inspiring Melissa’s words were from last Tuesday. I have copied her wonderful rule of six and made my own rule of ten. It is posted as its own page in the sidebar.
This post was oringinally posted October 26, 2006. Big thanks and love for the wonderful Melissa Wiley for allowing Homeschool Hacks to share her wonderful work.
My Rule of Six and Whence It Came
"It’s funny how things you post on the internet take on a life of their own. When I began this blog last spring, I put "Our Rule of Six" in the sidebar (see it down there on the left, under the baby photo?), intending to write a post about it.

i really like the idea of the rule of six, although we are not christian nor do we pray. but we do take time to be thankful for the things we have (not material things mind you). but it is a wonderful overview of what some be done each day, even for adults.

What a wonderful idea! It’s simple ideas like this that I love so much, and help keep me focused.
I’d been mulling over the idea of somehow hanging CM’s ideas on our dining room wall where we do the majority of our work… I think I’ll expand that idea to our family’s rule of five, or six, or ten!
