    Ok so I just went to a wonderful workshop on the Journey through the High School years.  It was great, learned a lot and can’t wait to start applying it.

    BUT – I am wondering what those of you who have already done/did or are going through this time in your life have used to keep it all together and in check.

    Not the books so much as I will continue to use the organizer for that record keeping.  I am talking about say – movies you watch, programs you go to, extra classes they take else where even if just a 1/2 day.

    Also, do you sort by child, subject, or how do you find it most easy?  In my state I learned (that I should have taken this class 4 years ago but enough whining on that) that if my children 6th and up take any high school level or above class or ect they can keep records of it for there transcripts.  Then if they need it or need more hours in something you can look back and say “oh yes.. we did this and now i have enough hours for a 1/2 credit or what have you”.

    So I want to be sure I don’t have to write things 2, 3 times because I have 3 children in this age group but yet I don’t want to mix up things either.

    What are you suggestions, thoughts or the rest.  Thanks Misty

    Typically, I just keep one binder for myself with each child’s yearly course of studies listed. I also keep one binder of each child’s work for the year…samples, special projects, etc.

    This year I will also include a front page in the binder with their course of studies detailed out to go along with the work samples. For my hs level dd this will include classes taken and credits/grades given. If they participate in something special, we will have pictures and a short write-up. This includes camp, field trips, volunteer work. I will also take pictures of special projects to keep in the binder. I keep work samples from their co-op classes in their as well. A movie and book list could also be included.
