Educational Planner
"We will never regret the time we invest in our children. Never!"
~ Brandee Gillham
There are a million and one planners on the market. I never found one that truly fit what I needed for my boys. So...
I used a simple Excel spreadsheet and designed it myself.
I figure out my curriculum choices and decide which boy is going to do which curriculum individually and also which ones we are going to do as a family. I update it on average about four times per year - simply as boys move from one curriculum to the next, move up a level, or if we decide something wasn't a good fit at all.
I prefer to plan my school week one week at a time and I really love it if I get it done on Friday afternoons. That way the school week is over, I know what we actually got done out of my zealous plans, and it gives me peace of mind over the weekend. If I miss that Friday mark, then it is likely I am doing my planning on Sunday evening... late!
