The Best Homeschool Planner, Yes It Exists
Okay, so I know that title was BOLD. I am out here saying that this is the BEST homeschool planner out there when truth be told, it’s the only one I have tried. But hear me out…this thing is jaw dropping, amazing!
I am a planner junkie and love browsing through different planners. I’ve actually had my eyes set on a particular planner for the last year, but finally came to the conclusion that since it wasn’t geared towards homeschooling, it wouldn’t be ideal for us. It also cost a pretty penny, and I had a hard time with that.
I have been researching planners for around a month or so now, and finally one day came upon the Well Planned Gal on Facebook. You know how Facebook works - if you search for something it purposely shows you ads for what you’re looking for. While sometimes I find it creepy that Facebook does this (you know you do too), I was very thankful for it this time. Immediately after browsing through the Well Planned Gal website and watching their video for the homeschool planner, I knew this planner was for me. I am in planner heaven and I just have to share it with you! (P.S. They have planners for busy moms that don’t homeschool too so make sure to check it out and use my coupon code there too)
So I’m not even sure where to begin about why this planner is proving to be so wonderful. First we will start with the quality and design — both of which are just perfect. The size is large, it’s sturdy and the designs are just beautiful. I love that they have accessory packs and items to match the planner such as the mechanical pencils, removable bookmarks, stickers, pens and more. You can even order extra covers to change the cover out!
But let’s get down to the meat of it…oh my. The homeschooling mama behind this planner has thought of everything possible and it shows. There is WONDERFUL advice in here for homeschooling including organization, schedules, storage and more. There is scripture throughout to encourage you on your journey and so many squares and boxes for all the things. Since I could sit here and write on and on, I’ll cut to the chase and show you more of the beauty through photos. But first, let’s briefly chat about what you’ll find in this planner.
What you’ll find inside the Homeschool Planner:
Class Action Plans for each child (they give you several pages for larger families)
Schedule
Read the Bible in a year with the recommendations listed for each day (convenient!)
Each month opens up with a beautiful and in depth homeschool tip and 6 perforated shopping lists
Each month opens up with a Field Trip section and a Chores around the home section
Each month opens up with a Reading plan for each child, Read Aloud books for the month and a place to track your library rentals
Each week contains a Dinner Menu section (finally I can keep track of leftovers), a To Do Section and self care checkoff (great to keep track of your prayer life)
Each day gives space for your subjects with plenty of room — Bible, Math, English, Science, History and then multiple blank blocks (we are using that for Art, any appointments and my business/blog)
You have a section to track progress, create beautiful report cards, reflect on the previous year
There are attendance records in the back, grade logs and a reflection for the upcoming year
The accessories are so fun - we are loving the homeschool stickers that include homeschool life, dinner, holidays, fun learning, housework and more
The mechanical pencils are beautiful and work perfectly and the snap in bookmarks help me keep track of the month and the week
It’s just beyond perfect!
I can’t say enough about this beautiful planner. The amount of thought and detail put into this book, while also inspiring and encouraging homeschool mamas, is truly stunning. I am in awe of it and for once in my life, I’m 99% sure I’ll actually use my planner the whole year and with all the blanks filled in because they have thought of everything!
I found so much joy sitting down with it this weekend to plan our first month and look forward to continuing to do so. From the beautiful designs, the well thought out layout and the fun stickers, planning just became even more beautiful and fun.
