Jul. 13, 2008 - The Completed Work Binder
Another item I use for our homeschool is a 3-ring binder for each child for completed work. I like to keep a three-hole punch by my side during the day, and put any work they've done into the binder. If I didn't use this method, in no time I'd have paper piles of finished work here, there, and everywhere!
To set up each binder, I simply made a cover sheet for each subject. I find nice pictures through a Google image search, and sometimes add a famous quote or Bible verse. I slide each into a pocket protector. Then I use self-adhesive tabs labeled by subject to turn these into dividers.
The inside pages of Catherine's notebook:
Sam's cover and inside pages (the page shown is for Apologia's Swimming Creatures notebook pages). I will file his MYO history pages in this notebook, rather than placing them in the timeline.
This makes it so much easier to keep records of the work they've completed. In addition, when you have company and someone innocently asks, "So what have you been learning?" You guessed it - they are forced to look through the entire binder! (grin)
