I understand there is a way to expand things to make a W/F checklist for the next week’s resources… but I’m having trouble figuring out how. Can someone walk me through it? I actually can’t figure out how to see each resource we’ll use for this week, even, to pull the right things off the shelf. I can see the next day… but I really need to see a week ahead to spend a little teacher prep time on Saturday for the coming week’s work. If I have to organize everything every night, that’s asking too much of me… this is the only woman in the world who stops working when the kids go to bed, whether the dishes are done or not. 🙂 I know we have a handy grid at the top if our planner covering what subject we’ll use, but I might have three history books to choose from, or 3 lit books going… telling me we will be doing art on Friday doesn’t help me gather my resources to be ready to do it.
Ok, this is the method… but not sure it is what you want.
To use the organizer to give you a weekly to-do list works well…. if you don’t worry about what is done which day, or else have what is on each day listed elsewhere. So for instance, there is a weekly list of readings, and they neec to do say 3 a day.
When I use this method, I would schedule everything on each day – or say on Sunday. For anything that is done more than once, click on ‘show upcoming assignments’, which shows 4 more.
Print. I would then cross out anything extra… say a book is to be read twice, I would block out the extra 3 on the list.
Clear as mud?
Hmm. Yeah. Maybe it will make more sense in the morning. 🙂
I really could care less what day we read what, as long as my history spine doesn’t fall so far behind that the other history books don’t work out anymore- that would take months of neglect.
As long as I have everything I need on the coffee table on Monday, and most of our chapters have been read and the coffee table is clear on Friday, I’m good. Can you tell I’m a concrete thinker, paper and pencil person?
Thanks for responding, I’ll take tomorrow afternoon to play around with it some more. I like the planner, and really want it to work!
Ok, so schedule everything for Sunday. If you like this method, schedule everything for everyday.
You need to know how many times each week a resource is used.
By each resource used more than once, click on ‘Show upcoming Assignments’ you can now see 5 assignments total for that resource. If it is only used once in the week, don’t click on that and it will show up once.
Print.
If a resouce is used, say twice that week, cross out the extra assignments that aren’t to be done.
And, you now have a great list for the week.
