This year started off so exciting. I LOVE new things, and this year we
added our CC notebook. Remember that? Yeah! It was great! We loved
the pages! Love the pages. However about week 9 we realized we were
just leaving the notebook sitting on the shelf and grabbing pages here
and there. then of course you know what happens to stray pages. We
work on a bit of a different schedule than originally planned so the
organization of the notebook didn't work anymore.
It
became tedious to figure out where all the pages were, since our
schedule now goes by subject. Each day we do one review game in the morning
(review last 6 weeks +current week). But we have a schedule of
subjects.
Monday-Timeline, Math, History
Tuesday-community day
Wed-Geo
Thurs-English, Latin
Friday-Science
(on
Geo day we do map tracing for review instead of a game)
Then we do
those pages on those days. Sometimes we don't get to it but then we go
back to it and do it as a review. So you see why it was tedious all as
one binder.
So in spirit of "going with the flow", we took apart the binder and sorted them by subject.
Now we have 8 comb bound workbooks and use each one on the day we work
from. It works SO much better for our family.
Some
days, (Mondays especially) we don't get to all of their notebooks. So
those pages end up being left for review on days like Friday when there
is extra time for work :)
