Does anyone know the approximate time each box should take in preparing?
Thanks!

Here is a quote from the schedule thread sticky (The times for a lot of the guides are listed on page 10 of that sticky.):

Left side of plans...
Reading about History: 15 minutes
Research/Geog./Timeline: 20 minutes
Independent History Box: 20-25 minutes
History Project box: 20 minutes
Storytime: 20 minutes
1 hour 40 minutes

Right side of plans...
Math: 20-30 minutes
DITHOR: 30 minutes (3 x a week); Creative Writing: 20-30 minutes (1 x a week)
Dictation: 5 minutes (3 x a week)
Grammar: 15 minutes
Bible Study: 15 minutes
Science: 20- 30 minutes
Poetry: 5 minutes
2 hours 10 minutes

This totals just under 4 hours.
These times are after you have been going for a while. The first few weeks it might take a little longer than that until everyone gets the hang of things. Our times were pretty consistent with this once we were rolling and most days we were running on the lower side of the times. :D
