We
listened to hundreds of homeschoolers in our quest to create THE ULTIMATE HOMESCHOOL PLAN BOOK. We recorded what they would like in an
ULTIMATE PLANNER to run their homeschools more easily, efficiently and beneficially. Then we created that tool.
Simply
choose which of the forms will work best for you. Make extra copies as needed and add them to your binder. And there you have it, a
personalized planner for managing life and learning.
We can't
possibly list all the pages and planning sheets you'll find within THE ULTIMATE HOMESCHOOL PLAN BOOK, but here is a sampling...The
worksheets are grouped into 5 categories. They include:
PLANNING: This is your area that has all your scheduling and planning master sheets. They are grouped by week, month, day and year. You'll
find sheets for:
