Preparing for Preparing

Post by Tooactiveboys » Sat Mar 18, 2017 6:35 pm

I am trying to figure out how to organize preparing. I just ordered my stuff from HOD, but only have the initial 1 week posting from the web site sample. This year I printed papers, or had the boys do their work on loose papers. Then store them in plastic sleeves in a binder. So. much. clutter! I was not able to keep up with all the loose paper. I kept enough and made decent portfolios (required where I live). But I preferred when I kept spiral notebooks for each subject. With that in mind I need advise on a few areas:
1) How do you handle vocabulary. I tried 4x6 note cards, They flew all around the house. I'm still finding some. I like them for the alphabetizing part of the assignments but it is not alphabetized if it is stuck under the sofa cushion. :P
2) How do y'all organize poetry copywork, intermittent grammar lessons that you write instead of doing orally?
3) Is there anything I need to know to organize for the Research part of the rotating box? The first week's assignment has no writing or things to save/store.
4) So let's just say you have a written narration for history, then a few weeks later one for Bible and yet another for language arts. Do they each go in each subject or do you have just one notebook for narrations?
Thanks again for your input.
