Managers of Their Homes: A Practical Guide to Daily Scheduling for Christian Homeschool Families
Convenient Spiral Notebook Design
Most homeschooling families would agree that scheduling is essential to fit school, work, chores and family time into the day, but many have not found a system that works for them. Steve and Teri Maxwell have faced the same challenges over the years. They've been homeschooling their eight children for fourteen years and had to find ways to make it work. Managers of Their Homes incorporates solutions that worked for them and for other families as well. The book goes into greater depth than most planning books, and includes sections on scheduling children's days, school, chores, kitchen work, priorities, and school year vs summer. Since we do not live in the ideal world, sections on interruptions, challenges, and babies are also included. How-to's include putting a schedule together and implementing the schedule.
The real question is, "Does it work?" Twenty-four families (many of them large families) tested the book before it was published to see if it helped them. Their comments include "I had read almost every organizational book there was, and I still couldn't get to where I wanted to be until I applied this method!", and "My schedule has given me back my sanity!! I can't believe the way my life has changed since implementing a schedule." Their encouraging comments are sprinkled throughout the book. 40 pages of sample schedules from these families are included in the appendix. In the back of the book is a "Scheduling Kit" to aid you in getting your own schedule up and running. There are still just 24 hours in a day, but this book can help you get the most out of them.
