Newly designed, I came up with a form for all you newbie homeschooling mamas . Along with the attendance record kept in the front of your binder or your child's, this is a daily log the children can fill in or you depending on age, of all the work they have done for the day. Just keep this in their binder. I have been working on getting a rhythm and I always feel as if I am starting over. I have to say this method has really saved me and kept me quite organized. It is also not very time consuming. Below are also some samples of curriculum that can help you design your Instruction Plan for the year. I will also be posting a sample of the quarterly reports and year end assessments.
Tips:
Tips:
- Keep a three ring binder for each child
- In the front keep the attendence form
- Inside keep the daily log form and make sure they put their name and date
- Dividers for all academic sections and also include a field trip section
- Also, include a reading log for any books read
- You can keep copies of some work in each divided sections for evaluation purposes should the district ever come knocking
- In your field trip section, just keep date, location, what was learned
Mama's Master Organizer
Please feel free to comment or suggest how this can be improved or send links if there is anything you want to add that would be helpful. Please feel free to email me: [email protected]. This is in no particular order. Print and go to town organizing your Master three ring binder. You can add dividers for color and make your own title pages. I will continue to add so keep coming back for updates. Bookmark me!

Sister Star's Hebrew Curriculum (LANGUAGE)
As part of our language study both for spiritual beliefs as well as homeschooling fulfillment, we have incorporated Hebrew. We found a wonderful curriculum that is so much fun, very easy to follow, and it is free! A wonderful and special homeschooling mama designed this awesome curriculum. She also has several shabbat games and activities specifically for children. The parents can learn right along side of the children. Her blog, Joyful Junction, is where you can find all this wonderful material and videos also. Below is the PDF file for
Hebrew Curriculum. Just print by section and incorporate a little bit each week. Have fun.

Two Excellent and Fun Supplemental Online Programs
One program I have used with my children and we both love is Time 4 Learning. This will cover your core subjects for primary school and it's very affordable on a monthly rate.
Core Learning is another online program for $10 per month for a subject. There are other rates that seem to be affordable enough and something that can really help supplemental. This would be great if your child needs more practive or a certain subject is not your forte.
