Agenda Books for 2006-2007

Posted in Curriculum-Schedule

It's that time again...

I'm finally getting to the agenda books for the coming year.  This has not been a difficult task, but not a short one either.  I've detailed the agenda books in an earlier post from March of last year.

So far I've created the calendar pages for the year, August-July.  Each child has their specific font & background.  I've included scripture for each month as well...food for thought I suppose.  I've also added our school breaks, end of quarters for the older ones in CLASS, and various other activities.  I think they've turned out well.  I'll have the girls proof them once more before printing.  I would hate to waste that much ink on an error.

I've also added several things to the reference section.  These are very child specific.  For instance, Cassie has Latin declensions/conjugations, a summary of Chemistry experiments, periodic table and other various chemistry formulas and conversions.  Jess has a summary of experiments for Physical Science.  Jacob on the other has his spelling lists for the year and a reading log.  No doubt I will be adding things such as grade tracking on their experiments, Vocabulary words, time tracking for music and typing, etc.

And as soon as I finish this, I will begin on my own personal little planner.  I believe I'll include my school checklists laminated, color coded copies of the kids' checklists,  color coded lab supply lists, correspondence logs, a year at a glance, and the monthly calendars to coincide with the childrens.  Pretty much anything I need to see printed out and can travel.  All else stays on the computer, such as grades.

That's all for now... back to the grindstone.

Boy are you ever efficient and organized! It just makes me feel organized to read it. Do you use a program or just something you do up on your own?
