    We are going to use Tapestry of Grace Year 1 next fall, and the daily readings / books on all learning levels appear to be set up mostly by page numbers (read 1-6 on day 1, read 7-15 on day 2, etc).

    I am wondering if the SCM Organizer entries for these books can be set up this way as the resources are added and then scheduled (rather than Chapter numbers that are usually used) ??

    We really loved using the SCM Organizer, as it made our school year run SO much more smoothly …. but I am really struggling with how exactly to enter at least the independdent student parts of the TOG program into the Organizer for accurate Daily Plans.

    Thank you in advance for any assistance provided.

    Thanks for the details, Tammy. I’m not really familiar with TOG’s set up. Yes, you can enter the books by page numbers, but I would make one recommendation to avoid confusion. Right now if you enter anything other than sequential numbered divisions, starting with 1, the Organizer assigns a number to each division to keep it in the right order. That’s fine, except that it shows that sequence number, which can be confusing. We’re working on a better system for that feature, but in the meantime here’s how I work around it/with it.

    Add your book title, use “Assignment” for division type, put in numbered divisions starting with 1, then in the division title put “pages 1-6,” “pages 7-15,” etc. That way you won’t be fighting against those extra sequencing numbers, and it will read “Complete Assignment 1: pages 1-6.” I suppose you could also put “Day” for the division type, if you wanted to, to read “Complete Day 1: pages 1-6.”

    Does that help any?

    This is most helpful and fantastic. I “think” I have figured out a way to enter in all of the TOG Year 1 entries on the Organizer — I am going to start playing with it as soon as my Guide arrives (the complete “assignment” list is in it). I will let you know how it goes ….

    Thank you, btw, for a WONDERFUL product and for your hard work and dedication !!

    God Bless.

    Hey there! i’m revisiting this topic to see if anyone else has some thoughts on how to use the CM Organizer with Tapestry of Grace, particularly if you are using TOG in a more CM way that it’s written. Any insight would be so appreciated. I love the organizer, but I’m overwhelmed with the thought of meshing it with TOG.

    🙂 I meant that I’m “revisiting” this topic and I meant TOG and not TOP. Clearly, I need some caffeine.
