Is it beneficial to use the Planning your CM education DVD/book if you are using the SCM online planner? Could someone please tell me a little about how the book and DVD have helped them?

You don’t need the Book or DVD to use the SCM planner..what does help is to have your homeschool plan already planned out for you as you are putting the info in the SCM Planner.
The SCM planner is more for record keeping and showing you what is next as you go along each day..but not to help you get your year, month or day planned out.
The Book and DVD are the tools to help you lay out all that you want to do with your DC and when you want to do it. Then after you have it planned out then you key your resources in the SCM planner to keep up to date records of when you work on something, finish something and what to do next.
Both resources are GREAT and I highly recommend them. I don’t have the DVD but I have the book and I have used the SCM planner now for two years and love the ease of it all. Hope that helps.
What country’s flag is your new Avatar pic? Interesting..I may have to look it up so I can go to sleep tonight and stop trying to guess.

Thank you so much for you reply! I think that I may get the book and DVD even though I don’t struggle at all with planning. I LOVE planning. The flag is Tanzania. You can sleep now. : )

Oh and I agree I LOVE to plan too but using the book helps keep me focused and gives me more of a guideline rather then just winging it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I’m off to bed now.
