Hi fellow homeschoolers! I have another fun and colorful planner designed for homeschool lesson planning to help keep track of assignments, grades, reading, and any appointments or activities that you might need!

You can use this for your own teacher lesson planning, or for your students to help keep track of assignments, grades, reading, and any appointments or activities that you might need!
What’s included?
This planner includes colorful weekly planner pages for the August 2016 – July 2017 school year. This planner is portrait format for easier printing and binding.

Homeschool Extra Forms
This planner also comes with a variety of forms to help you with your planning and record keeping. If there’s a form I forgot, feel free to email me and I’ll do my best to add one in! Most of these forms were created to go along with my Homeschooling 101: A Guide to Getting Started eBook. Hopefully they’re fairly self explanatory but you can use them however best suits your needs.

How do I use the planner?
I printed the planner and forms, then took mine to a local office supply store and had it spiral bound. It cost about $3.50 for the spiral, plastic cover, and backing. You can even print an extra one for your students if they prefer to work off of their own planner.
Next get some colorful pens and start planning! Add in the current week dates at the top along with all of your subjects down the left hand column.
Next add in your lessons on the lines provided. You can use the lines to write in lessons for each child as indicated below.
I like to use different colored pens for each of my children.
As you proceed through your lessons, highlight the completed items so you know that they are finished.
What’s the cost?
This super fun planner is available for purchase in my store. And you are more than welcome to print extra copies for yourself or your children, so you do not need to purchase one planner for each of your students. Yay for sharing!
PLEASE NOTE: This item is currently only available as a download. You’re welcome to print the file double sided, then have it spiral bound at a local copy store. I would suggest printing it on a light weight cardstock for durability and to prevent ink bleeding through the pages. To print double sided, it’s easiest to print all of the odd pages, then flip and print the even pages on the back side.
Will this also be available in 5×7 like last year? LOVED mine!! Thank you!
Yes, I haven’t put it up on my blog yet, but if you go to my store you’ll see it 🙂
The difference is just the size? is there any other difference in the monthly calendar or so?
Do you know if I take it to a printing place they would print? I don’t want to use all my color ink, and it seems like the printing places have much nicer equipment 😉
Yes you can bring it there, if they have any issues let me know and I can send you a print authorization form. I also like to use http://www.bestvaluecopy.com they offer fairly inexpensive color printing as well.
I recently printed a copy, and it really wasn’t too bad. I have a new printer and it still has the cartridges that came with it in. Even though it gave me a message that the ink was getting low, I didn’t have any problems, and didn’t run out of ink (no faded areas or anything.)
Can this planner be printed/used year after year? Or does it have dates printed for just this school year on it? Does it include the sticker sheets like a previous on I saw in your store?
No this one is dated for 2016-2017, but the Colorful, Floral, and Arrows planners are all blank so they can be re-printed and used year after year.
What a wonderful planner! How many pages total is the planner if you were to print it back-to-back?
Approx. 77 pages if you print it double sided.
Will you be doing another preschool daily notebook for 2016-2017?
Yes, it posted a few weeks ago:

I just ordered and printed off my planner today, and have only 1 disappointment. The attendance & grade book pages have a dark blue instead of pale blue on every other line so it will be hard to write over and see what is written on those lines. I wish I could attach a pic to show the difference between this year and last year.
Hmm..I’ll have to take a look at it, I used the same form so I’m not sure why it’s printing darker blue like that. Let me check and get back to you.
I previously purchased one of your planners, but the year-at-a-glance only goes through the 2015-2016 school year. Do you have the 2016-2017 year-at-a-glance page available anywhere for those that have already purchased a planner?
Thank you.
I have the same question. I purchased the Homeschooling 101 book with the planning pages in the back and the year long calendar at a glance only goes through the 2015-2016 school year. Wondering if there is a printable for just the 2016-2017 year-at-a-glance page?
Hi Jenny,
Since that planner isn’t a dated one, I actually removed the year-at-a-glance pages from it, and won’t be re-adding them in. The dated planners come with year at a glance pages though if you’re interested in getting one.
Hello! I love this! I just purchased the download and uploaded it to print at a couple different stores. The minimum cost from the sites is $80 to print in color, double sided, cardstock, bound, with a clear cover. Where can I get this printed at a reasonable price? Please help 🙂
Hi Michelle,
I like http://www.bestvaluecopy.com it’s about .09/color sheet I believe? I usually print at home, then take it to office depot to get it spiral bound which is around $5.
Hello. I was wondering when you will be putting out next year’s planner for 2017/2018? I know it is soon to be asking but I unfortunately am just stumbling onto your planner and have already been using a different one since August that I will just stick with until the end of this school year. Also, how many pages are in the planner altogether? Thanks so much for creating this. It’s awesome!
I’ll be updating the school planners sometime in June or so. They run August through August, so it’s mid-year for the lesson planners. This particular one has 164 pages 🙂
Ok, thanks so much. 🙂
