Just about wrapped up school prep. I finally decided that I didn't like any lesson planners out there so I made my own. Surprisingly enough, I enjoyed doing it & it didn't take much time! (The longest time was probably spent on "decorating" it with clipart. lol) I found a binder with a fabric spine that allows you to fold it over like a spiral notebook. Score! I was expecting to have Staples bind it for me, but now I can add, subtract, & change things to my heart's content.
In all of the planner design stuff going on, I nearly forgot to print out stuff for the boys' notebooks. I designed a calendar for them to fill in, made a monthly weather chart for Caleb's math lessons, and printed out maps for Jimmy's geography memory work.
All that's left now is to put together the boys' binders & finish filling out the last two sections of the memory work cards. I'd also like to better organize the school cart (where I'll store all of my teacher supplies in the school room), but I think that may have to wait until we actually get into it. I'm not quite sure yet what I'll need to have on hand on a daily basis for this year.
We're almost there!!
