School Stress

We are experiencing high stress levels in my house this week in relation to school.  Erik and Em have finals this week, along with some big projects that are due.  Jacob and I are getting toward the end of our semester and have lots of group projects and papers due.  Part of the problem is that procrastination has been going on, and part of it is just that so much is due at the same time.  My kids have not learned the value of working ahead and getting things done early (yet), and they don't have the stamina to stick with their assignments,  they get distracted easily.  So, hopefully some lessons are being learned and we won't have to go through all of this again at the end of the next semester/trimester!
