I bought this several years ago. It's huge but I love it. I am a storage gal and adore all the pockets, zippers, handles & do-dads. Lol!
I got this idea from Rhonda! I have my own pocket with my daily school tools. In addition to what the kids have in theirs I have a Sharpie and Post-Its. What would I do without those?
My calendar. On the back is 2011.
The kids each have one of these in their binders as well.
I didn't post all the days for privacy. I didn't think posting where we would be every day & evening to the world would be a good idea. =0)
The kids each have one of these in there binders too.
This is the list I was referring to in Sweet Pea's post. I designed hers after mine. Since mine was several years old, (made it when Elvis was a few months old), I tweaked it. Like Sweet Pea's mine is laminated to save on time, paper & ink.
Week At A Glance
I color coded them for the kids. Bugsy = Blue
(You've probably guessed but the barrette is to cover up real names. It's not a permanent part of the sheet. Lol!)
Red = Elvis
Green = Boo Bear
Pink = Sweet Pea
Sweet Pea has the same one in her binder.
My place to write down the kid's daily assignments & accomplishments.
The white sheet is to record our family reading.
This is the same one the kids have in their binders. I will record Bugsy's for him.
If I don't write it down, "POOF!", it's gone! ROTFL!

I have some other helps in there: Some hints from Fly Lady, a slot for reward stickers, a list for menus, contact info., shopping list, planning pages, sign language alphabet, extra pages, all 3 soccer schedules, some more helpful tip pages from my great friend, AWANA events calendar, pantry inventory, freezer inventory, office supply store reward card #'s, and notepad. There are lots of cool pockets too. I have my notes, Sweet Pea's 4-year plan of study and misc. worksheets in those. I love having everything in one place! In the morning I grab it & head downstairs ready to start!

Thanks again, Rhonda for all your inspiration!
