How are you structuring your days with primary age DC?

DS is in Year 2. At the moment I'm still working, I can't WFH and need to continue working as long as possible although I might get laid off within the month anyway.

How are you all structuring your days for home educating them? I have people doing childcare for me while I'm at work so I will have to come home and then make sure DS does some schoolwork in the afternoon and evening. Not sure how best to do it really.

I'm going to try and have a fairly solid structure, so:
8:00, wake up, get dressed, eat breakfast
9:00-10:00 maths or english (using resources from here, will rotate which they are doing each day)
10:00-10:30 have a break and snack, play with toys (no electronics)
10:30-12:00 project work. let them pick a project (eg Egyptians)and work on it. could be painting and writing facts over the painting, making a pyramid etc
12:00-1:00 lunch time, can watch tv
1:00-3:00 (?) outside playing/having a walk/trampoline/game of football
3:00-4:30 electronic time
4:30 onwards, free time, eat dinner, shower and bedtime

we might not stick to it but having a stricter structure to start with will let me have an idea of what to be doing with them rather than just sitting on electronics the whole day
