Amey, With tears in my eyes, I pray for you and your family now. Only from the Lord can the Peace that Passes all understanding come. I pray that for you now as you wait to hear. And for the healing of your DH and his fears as well as he must be feeling so worried as well as it would have passed fro...

Hi! Welcome to the boards.. you are going to love it here. If you do a search for preparing you will see others using it for older dc. I will be using it with extensions for my 11 yr old 6th grader in the fall and the deluxe (as is) for my 8 yr old third grader! This choice was made with Carries hel...

So where do you get clear, inexpensive, magazine holders... Maybe I will just use the boxes but on a shelf... like this. I already have them. hmmm. Oh my. I think I will use my shoebox shelves for toys... I am so wishy washy

take the ease out of Carrie's organized TM"s. I have all the stuff. Read the book cover to cover. But I don't want to lose the pleasure of the HOD guides having everything in one place. Do you take each box from a page, rewrite assignments and put them in the boxes? Or basically use it for the read...

I just noticed this thread and it is exactly what I need!

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4093 An HOD friendly "workbox" that just organizes materials. Super plan!

This makes much more sense for HOD. I really like this for my four in school and maybe one shoerack with a row of boxes for each of my littles to keep them busy during school too!! This could actually help me rather than add to my work... Thanks to the OP for this one! :D I already have each level w...

That was my concern. I have quit homeschooling before because of my disorganization. HOD is providing me with the peaceful open and go that I need. But I am thinking of using the boxes for organized breaks, ie.. time with 2 year old, trampoline for 15 minutes, art, gym/15 minute bikeride, spanish, a...

Carrie, This was my original question in a nutshell. I am looking for ease of use this year. Open and go was what I am looking for and I don't want to complicate things. I am truly organizationally challenged and that is part of why HOD is so peace provoking... The boxes may help me organize some ar...

Does anyone know if Carrie plans to move on to HS TM's as her children get older (after the four year history cycle)? That would be fabulous. Then I could just stick with HOD and stop wasting my money on figuring out what works... I've already btdt!!! Rebecca Maybe we will just have to wait three ye...

Michele, Dorla and Tamara! I can't wait to hear from you in a week or so and let us know please how it is going... Getting tired of the filling... loving it... tweaking etc. I like the file box idea too, but I think my kids would need the visual.. two with ADHD at least. Thanks so much for your repl...

Tamara, are you using the boxes for both programs? I saw your schedule strips on the wall. Are you still using that method, or are you actually using the clear shoeboxes that she suggests? I guess you answered that with the "I pack the boxes the night before"...lol SO... Is there anything I can do i...

I just went to sonlight and ordered an extra sheet of 7 of their colored sticker sheets for their cores. I remember not being able to remove them once they were on and I like this idea. This way I know I have enough for every level of HOD and the stickers will stick forever! Fun. Great idea. Rebecca

Tamara, I ordered the record log from the workbox website too and she color coordinates them to the starter kits I ordered for the kids. i CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS RECORD LOG ENOUGH. IT HAS ALL THE PLANNING PAGES I HAVE SEEN INCLUDING ONE SIMILAR TO THE ONE LISTED ON THE POST A FEW UP. IT HAS A PAGE FO...
