But, one question...how do you keep each child's plans for the day separate? For example, how would I keep my second grader's plans separate from my kindergartener?

We are about to complete our first year of homeschooling, but since I have only one school-age child, I didn't use a planner this past year. Next year, though, I think I need to start using one as I will be doing more formal preschool stuff with my 4-year old as well as having a 1st grader.

I'm an introvert even on-line. :-D Great series. I got a lot of ideas for planning out the school year that I'm excited to try. We are finishing up our 6th year of homeschooling and I still don't feel I have a great schedule figured out. And maybe there isn't one. lol It seems to change every year. This is our second year teaching year round, working 3 months then take a month off and so on, and still working the kinks out of the schedule.

I found many practical ideas. I feel much more confident in taking all the pieces of the curriculum I have purchased individually and weaving them into one plan. I had thought planners were a "frilly" extra and had made grids and calendars over the years. Also did the refer to each instructor guide individually to hopefully get all the lessons in. Now, I can see there is more value in having all the work in one place to refer to and it really isn't an "extra" at all. Learned lots, and appreciate your efforts to share what you know works for you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619118983561372064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-86440229106577926102013-06-14T05:24:38.837-07:002013-06-14T05:24:38.837-07:00This series was very refreshing and encouraging! ...This series was very refreshing and encouraging! It's nice at times to just go back to the basics and be reminded that things can be simple. The biggest thing I took from this series is "The main point I am trying to make here is that you don't have to erase your entire planner and start over again. Just continue on in forward motion." I'm going to use that golden nugget throughout my year. Forward Motion! <br />KimberlyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
