"Your schedule is a tool to help you get more learning done in less time. It is not your master but your slave. Do not use it as a weapon. Have an alternate schedule for the days you need to stay in bed a little longer. That way you won't be tempted to forget schooling completely on that day. Informal learning - such as reading aloud, library trips, vacations, field trips, or other outings - can also be counted as time spent on schooling, so don't fret if you have not spent as much time on task as your schedule says you should." An invaluable resource packed cover to cover with tips, tricks, and practical advice.
