Inexpensive Homeschool Organizing Ideas
by Marianne
We just began homeschooling last fall and I must say I was overwhelmed with what is available to us! First, to organize arts & crafts I bought a 3-tiered rolling cart, each tier is a different primary color. We divided up the supplies by "medium" (paint, crayons, etc.), "bases" (paper, etc.) & "embellishments" (pipe cleaners, glitter, etc.). This works very well and although it's not the neatest sometimes, we know where everything is. Second, my binder! I live by this! It's a 3", ring binder. In here I keep days homeschooled, notes, subject material, ideas for all topics, websites to investigate, forms I use and important papers. All divided nicely. Third, I keep a "Favorites" file on my computer, divided by subject matter, of all the homeschool websites we use, or will use. It's easy to navigate with the sites placed in their appropriate subject!
