back-to-school boot camp

August 16, 2010 By: amyswanderingcomment

We are starting school in a week and summer break is officially over. With a heat index near 115, I will be glad when summer is over! I am ready to get back into a routine and to update this poor neglected blog.

I am calling this week Back to School Boot Camp. I will be putting together plans for the school year and the kids will be getting the house in order (of course I will be directing helping).

Here are some plans for the week:

  • get kids back on school schedule (up at 8, ready for bed by 9:30)
  • divide books up into a loose schedule for the year
  • make copies
  • write a weekly schedule
  • set up a file system
  • create a planner
  • make new chore charts
  • come up with a list of lunch ideas

I will share my plans as I finish them. I have found so many great things while researching all of  this! Because time is tight this week, I will probably do either a bunch of little posts or some long lists.

Hopefully you will find some helpful ideas!!

my lovely little binders

August 3, 2010 By: amyswanderingcomment

I already shared my Homeschool for Free and Cookbook LiveBinders, but now you can view all of my binders. They are quite at home in the column immediately to your right.

They make so happy because I need to have all my ideas right in front of me. (Which is why I order catalogs.) They are a work in progress. Here is what you will find:

~Homeschool for Free 100% free curriculum

~General Science Links I am using along with Considering God’s Creation.

~Autumn Funschool fun & creative ideas – I’m not waiting until the last minute to plan this year! Includes back-to-school, Sept, Oct, Nov, Halloween & Thanksgiving.

~Yummy for My Tummy Online recipes that we have tried & liked.

~Home Sweet Home Decorating ideas that I have organized according to the rooms in which I want to use them.

Do you have any LiveBinders? Leave a link, I want to come visit!!
