Organization is an area where I can always use help. I am organized but, I am always looking for great tips on how to improve. I enjoyed this lesson.

I love Cindy Rushton and have a few of her files saved from various places. I have a homeschool cupboard in our hallway which is ideal for all our material. I have a basket with the girls work in it and they can find everything easily.
I am in the process of getting to read the section by Cindy that you have posted. I am a little behind as we have been away and I am still catching up on emails.
Thanks again for a great lesson. I think I covered a little of this lesson in my previous comment on lesson B

I was glad to learn that I did not have to copy the classroom. I am constanty tweaking what we do and I am glad I am able to adjust everything to fit our family and not the other way around!

Thank you for these lessons. They have been great and I wouldn’t be able to get them otherwise.

I remember when I first started schooling, that I wanted to do every subject every day, and it just plain didn’t work out. Now schooling is much more realistic.

I like the ideas about a book monitor, and some of the other organization ideas. Thanks!

Our homeschool stuff is probably the only area where I am fairly organized. I have a hand-held scanner for my business library and am getting ready to scan our homeschool library next!

I have to say that this is another great lesson! It is another kick in rear to plan. I am one of those failure to plan is planning to fail people but at the same time do not plan for fear of failing at that planning part! Make sense?! Make it simple! That is my problem; thanks for the great tips.

A schedule is something we have changed several times over the years, but it always does my heart good to know that other parents sometimes struggle with keeping organized. Thank you for the encouragement to fit the schedule to our family, not the other way around!

These are excellent ideas for organization. While there is no need for homeschoolers to copy the classroom, the necessity of organization exists for each teaching format. If the teacher (often Mom) does not manage and coordinate her school as part of the rest of her home and life, it will become tremendously frustrating and disappointing. The fun of learning with your children can be buried in the frustration of not having a plan and using it. Thank you for these suggestions.
