[…] as we come to it. I also took file folders and labeled them by week (I copied this idea from this mom). At the beginning of each week I pull all the student sheets that we will need and put them in […]

In reply to Workingathomeschool. Hi Jen! I don't know how I missed your reply to my comment back in September, so sorry! I'm bummed to hear that you won't be using MFW this year. Have you found something more cost-effective for this year? I do hope you are able to come back to MFW next year, especially since you enjoy it. God bless!

In reply to Jackie B.. Yes! I should write up a better post with new pictures, but that system has worked REALLY well for us and we are continuing to use it! We are taking a break with MFW for the year - not because I don't love it (I really do), but because of financial concerns. We are really looking forward to jumping back in with MFW next year, though!

This is a wonderful post! I really need to use your suggestions this year. Are you still using MFW? I would love to read an update on how your organization has worked with it. 😉

In reply to Workingathomeschool. Thank you for the quick response. That makes perfect sense. That is about how we schedule as well. That helps me know what to do with all my files.

In reply to Cortney. For the weeks we don't have school, I use the folders for special drawings or extra worksheets the kids do. We don't do a certain number of weeks on, then another few weeks off, although I know some families who love scheduling that way. We schedule long breaks for Thanksgiving, Christmas, vacations, and a week off for birthdays just because. Then we fill in the rest of the time with the 36 school weeks. We usually end up doing school from August to the end of June.

Hello, I just ordered MFW to start in January. I am curious about your schedule. We school year round as well, I’m curious what your schedule is like. You said you have 52 folders, one for each week. Do you school every week of the year? Thanks for your feedback.

In reply to ah0302. Thanks! I just got frustrated because there are SO many papers so I had to do something! :)

Thanks for sharing this organizational system! I love how it is all set up and ready at the beginning of the year. And then genius that it keeps the finished work organized as well. We school year round too, but I’m already thinking of how to better organize for next year! Thanks for the ideas!

In reply to Caroline G.. Wow, congratulations! Three levels is tough - this is my first year teaching three at once. I'm using My Father's World so that I can do multiple grades at once, but high school is a whole different story!
