I found this video in my editing archives, and realized I never shared it! So, today I'm sharing the "behind the scenes" of how I plan our entire Charlotte Mason homeschool year! Come see how I decide on our school calendar, create our weekly schedule, and forecast our lessons for the year.

I recently found the schedule cards, and I agree they are so helpful! As you were talking about gluing the cards and it not working for you, I thought, what if you laminated the cards first and then used magnetic strips on the back and hung them on a magnetic board. Then you can easily rearrange them and still have it up to see.

I plan very similar to your style but I use excel instead of the print outs, :) I appreciated your talk on forecasting which I was sort of doing but never could organize like you. Loved your homeschool planner spread!

Excel is a great idea! Figuring out forecasting in our homeschool has been a game-changer!

Yay!! Will you be posting your curriculum for this upcoming year? I love your book choices and style:)

Yes, I will be! I'm working on getting the last few books ordered and subjects prepped, and then I'll have the videos up! Thank you for asking!

How do you decide which books to use? This is the part I get stuck on; I know the subjects, but don't know which books to use.

Would you be willing to share a copy of your planner pages that have the two sets of 36 weeks with the book name on the side? Those are such a great idea!

You’re welcome!! I recorded this planning video a couple of years ago, and I have a video where I shared what we used for Kindergarten: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b6dpoJCFy6fLaZs.htmlsi=-fCIq4ZUTTDfXH57 Happy planning! ❤️

What do exams look like?? Do you do any type of holiday units such as Easter/Christmas? Also, what ages do you have going into 24-25 school year?

Great questions! I have a blog post about how we do exams in our homeschool: www.abeautifullywreckedlife.com/exam-week-how-we-do-exams-in-our-charlotte-mason-homeschool/. It's from a few years ago, but that's still basically how we do them. We don't typically do any kind of Easter or Christmas units for our morning lessons, but I usually add special extras for both Advent and Lent. We do some of them in the afternoons (like baking cookies or making crafts) and some of them as a family in the evenings (like our Advent calendar, etc.). For the 24-25 school year, I'll have a 4th grader, 2nd grader, and very informal preschooler. :)

Great video! What did you do for kindergarten? Do you wait until the kiddos are older to start anything?

@abeautifullywreckedlife 29 күн бұрын

Thank you! I wait until my kiddos are around 6 to start Kindergarten (or the year they're 5, going on 6) and then we do a pretty light year. Here's a video I did a couple of years ago sharing my middle kiddo's Kindergarten plan: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b6dpoJCFy6fLaZs.htmlsi=5Mdw2b4bcR6hkS2V

What planner are you using?

@abeautifullywreckedlife Ай бұрын

That's a great question! I actually made my own planner to use because I could never find *exactly* what I wanted. I just recently did a flip-through of it on my Instagram stories, and you can see it in my "Planning" highlight. :)
