Oh my dear, I love your notebooks! We have one more chapter of this Astronomy book to complete. We have been using a three ring binder but I love the comb bound notebooks. Our next science book will be Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day. I will comb bind this one. I have three to do for this notebook as we will all be doing this book together. I may just be asking questions before I start. Melissa

Okay, so you made the dividers? Wow! How many pages per chapter did you allow for narrations? I am thankful that you have done this before me so I can learn from your example. I wanted to do history notebooks but I haven't attempted them yet. I am also working on Bible notebooks but they will be huge so I will probably take them to Kinko's for spiral binding. Once I am finished with substituting at our church's school next week, I can focus on notebooks and order our new science book and create those notebooks. I'd better buy more card stock! Melissa

Oh wow, fabulous books! and that is a really cool machine to have at home. Last year when I put together our homeschool groups year book I had them bound like that at Staples : ) How did you know how many pages to add to each section of the book? Blessings, Rosina

I have really enjoyed seeing all your notebooks. I started making them after seeing your idea earlier. I have a small comb binder and want to upgrade to one like yours. :) I made a Zoology 2 notebook for my kids this year, but I wish I had done the chapter dividers. That's another good idea.

Did you make the book first, or bind their completed work (this makes more sense to me). coffeefrogkat@gmail.com smorganlife.blogspot.com

I made the book first. I counted out one sometimes two pages for each chapter, (this allows a mistake to be ripped out if necessary). This involves more planning and work upfront, but less work to be done later. So I don't need to add pages throughout the year.

Where did you purchase your binder? Do you put all the sheets in at once (at the beginning or end), or do you put them in as you do them.

Me, back again. Did I express to you what a truly awesome, incredible, inspired idea making your own notebooks is!! Seriously, I showed my husband who instantly said "THAT would have been perfect for our sons Further Up and Further In study this year, Sheri you HAVE to price comb binding machines" Sheri @ theshadesofpink.blogspot.com
