From Make Today Matter...
The ULTIMATE Home School Planner

This might be the last planner you ever need!

Think about the number of things you manage in your life: home school, a home, expenses, goals, to-do lists, chores - and probably more!  The reason why so many home school planners are disappointing is because they do not take into account all these aspects of our complicated lives. Guess what?  The Ultimate Home School Planner does!

Section One is a planner. It contains a Student Knowledge Inventory for grades 1-8, a Parent Knowledge Inventory questionnaire that analyzes the student's responses and helps focus our efforts, and a student questionnaire to record their ideas and opinions. With all this information at hand, you are ready to plan a time block - your schedule of what you will work on and when you will do it. Tips on planning for several students, includes an article by Catherine Levison and ends with a huge selection of planning forms for you to choose from according to your home school's needs!

Section Two is called "Curriculum Planning and Friendly Finance".  It covers how to create a budget and choose curriculum wisely.  Forms to track curriculum purchased, supplies, and expenses are included.

Section Three, "Logging your Learning," concerns how we log what the children are learning. It covers keeping logs and journals (and helps you decide which is right for you!) and provides forms and ideas for many different styles and needs.  Includes an article by Teri Brown on support groups - how to find one, start one, and get the most out of being a part of one.

Section Four is about Unit Studies and Student Templates. Do you like the idea of doing a unit study but don't know how to begin?  Are you having trouble logging all of your unit study learning?  This section contains info on getting started, links to free units, a list of fun ideas for your own unit studies, and all the planning and record keeping forms needed to successfully implement unit studies

Section Five is called Household Management. Your school takes place in your home, so if your home is a wreck, school isn't far behind, right?  This section helps your get your home under control and keep it that way.  It has ideas, forms, quick and easy recipes, and some delightful articles, including one on writing a family mission statement by Deborah Taylor-Hough. Finally, there are ideas for children’s chores and reward systems as well as charts for implementing them.
