Not to mention, I am sure that you have heard about Sue Patrick's workbox system. And if you have not, I am giddy to tell you about it!!
I am SO stinking excited about this. Caleb thrives off of structure, and as his momma, I already know that this system will be a blessing to our homeschool. And ALL kids could benefit from this. Plus it can be used with any curriculum.
Who couldn't use these benefits in their classroom????:
- more efficiency
- more independence
- more motivation
- more variety
And, being the organizing JUNKIE that I am, I immediately FELL IN LOVE. Not to mention, the Hiding the Uglies factor.
You can find a TON online about the workbox system, but I went ahead and got the book, and it was worth every penny. If you really want to do this system right, and reap the most benefits, I highly recommend that you pick up a copy of the book, or you can get the Ebook online.
I also stuck a copy of it in my store, so if you are going to buy it, you can just snag it from the homeschool section of my shop and send some pennies my way. Just sayin.

As for me. I am not going to go with the full-on clear boxes. I am going to use magazine files and sturdy clear plastic bags... but that is for a future post. To find all of the goodies I bought to get me started on my workbox system {insert giddiness here}, head to the Homeschool section of My Shop.
7 friends had a thing or two to say...:
Is your baby starting school this year? Ye-Gad. Time flies. You are already super organized, I see! I want to be like you some day, Denise...
