Osmosis Mom Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I have tried a Frankling Covey one (but obviously they have so many options) and an Amy Knapp one, but am still looking. I don't want to print one out myself. I'd like one that accomodates me needing more slots as I have several children and I'd also like it to be semi-cute. Any suggestions?

Pster Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I really like this one: Planner Pads I'm on my 2nd one - it's perfect for someone who likes to make lots of notes! I always used lots of post-it notes and this has helped to consolidate all those loose notes I had. I wouldn't call it semi-cute either but........ it's all black and white. It is more for overall family / household planning - not for school lesson plans. hth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in SC Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I use a compturized/paper combo: Outlook on the computer for long term planning (special calendar dates, regularly scheduled chores such as replacing ac filters, To Do items for the following week, month, or year, etc) and for moving things over that can't be accomplished on the date I'd originally targeted. This minimizes time spent in re-writing stuff that is inherent to a paper system. I've tried several different paper systems for DAILY lists but keep coming back to my all time fave - Day Timers spiral bound (junior size) one page per day option. I use this for TODAY's list (phone calls, errands, appts, etc). Past these two things, I also use the Tasks feature in Outlook for those things I need to get to, don't want to forget to do, but honestly don't know *when* I should try to do them.

Ellie Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Homeschool Organizer. I didn't need to take my whole homeschool stuff with me when I left the house; it was the Frankline that was an extension of my arm, lol. But Gregg Harris's Homeschool Organizer was perfect for all my homeschooling and household needs. It used to be called something like The Complete Christian Family's Organizer; I jokingly call it The Complete Compulsive Person's Organizer, because there are so many forms to choose from :-) Many of the organizers I've seen are variations on a theme based on this.

Robin in Tx Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Oh wow, these look great! I've been looking for something like this, that gave more space for to do lists and note taking, and less space to appointments. Thanks so much for posting!

sleepy Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I like the student planners from Elan Publishing. Ria recommended them long ago, and I love having one for each student (I use the SO-8 full year). They also have teacher's planners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
