Color–coded homeschool planner {giveaway}

Have you been searching for a paper planner & record keeper? I am pleased to share with you tonight a new one called My Homeschool Daily Planner & Records. This handy planner is the brain child of Jennifer from Are We Crazy, or What?

“This is a unique planner in that each child is assigned a color and that student’s data is recorded in the area designated by that color”. ~ from planner

With 174 pages this planner is chock full of helpful sections including:

* Weekly Planning Pages
* Three Different Chore Charts
* Year At A Glance
* Grade Record
* Field Trip Planner and Recorder
* Student Goals
* Homeschooling Schedule
* Pages for Notes

One feature of this planner that I consider handy is that all the students are color-coded. With versions that include 2,3 or 4 students you can easily identify which students work you are inputting in the red, blue, green or yellow sections. Keeping track of grades and lessons for up to six subjects could not be any easier. The planner is economically priced for each student version at $4.99 each.

I have really enjoyed using this planner as I am a paper girl at heart. Printing the planner out was a breeze with the useful included instructions. I chose not to take my printed copy to the office supply store to have it bound, instead I was able to put copies inside of my personal planning binder.

My favorite section in this planner has to be the chore section. With our new family chore system I am able to keep track of the girls daily points easier. I also really like the color-coded features. My only minor complaint would be that because I have more than 4 students I would love to see an option to add more students.

Overall, I feel this is a great product that you should definitely check out if you are looking for a new planner for the upcoming school year. At $4.99 you can’t beat the price, especially for everything it has to offer.
