If you have ever heard of Donna Young's free homeschool planner or organizational charts, you have found the web site that offers it. The section under the Homeschool Planner tab will have just about everything you will need to build a home-ed planner. The forms are there and many are editable, the how-to plan pages are there, and summaries of the different planner types.
The pages under Homeschool Planner are organized into these subsections:
1. Planner Guide discusses planner types and which forms goes into the different homeschool planners types.
The Essential Homeschool Planning Forms, The Weekly Home Ed Planner,
The Subject Planner,
The Journal Planner, The Timer
2. Planning Help discusses how to get started with planning your homeschool. There is a step by step guide to thinking it out. There is a page about how to schedule a day. Planning Help also has several pages that talk about how to make simple lesson plans for several types of books. There is a page about surviving the curriculum fair with the forms to print.
3. Lists house my printable forms with which you may list your library books, reading logs, checklists, curriculum shopping list, student goals, and etc.
4. Administrative forms deal with sorting out and recording administrative parts of your home ed such as school calendar, attendance, grades, course of study, transcript, and certificates, etcetera. Administrative is also the home for the popular Grades and Attendance xls graders.
5. Lesson Plan Forms houses my numerous home-ed lesson plan forms. I have forms for daily lessons, weekly lessons, lessons grouped by subject. I have plain, bordered, or decorated. Journal forms and I have a form for Unit Study. You also have the column planners as an option. They have 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, columns. The columns refers to the blocks. Some have ruled areas and some do not.
6. In High School I talk about the steps to planning the 4 years of homeschooled high school. I've included transcript forms, a printable high school diploma, and planner forms designed for high school home-ed.
7. Extra is not a good name, and might change later, but the content of Extra will remain the same. In Extra, you will find Notebooking forms, Grids, Cover Sheets, and forms for your outside activities such as a field trip log, Phone Directory (Contacts) for your homeschooling buddies, Meeting Notes for your homeschool meetings, Important Web sites where you can record a url, user name and password, and etc.
8. Sets will have my matching Home-Ed Planner sets. Some of the sets are more complete than others and some coordinate with other sets. For instance, Garamond and Portfolio use the same font. Some sets include calendars and some include household forms.
