Homeschooler's Plan Book Plus! by Imogene Forte and Marjorie Frank. Incentive, 2004. This plan book has a unique, interactive, and friendly design which provides weekly tips and quips to engage parent teachers and students alike. It has everything a teaching parent needs for the entire school year, including some creative teaching ideas and a bit of humor. There is also a 'word of the week" feature which introduces a new word to learn every week. The format is home school friendly, and instead of squares to divide each day of the week into periods or subjects, the week's double-page spread is divided into five long columns down the page -- one for each school day. This is great for unit studies or spending more time on fewer subjects on one day and more time on different ones the next day. The first few pages are designed to help you get organized, set up an effective learning environment, and gather the supplies and materials you will want to have handy (checklist is provided.) There is a resource file for important phone numbers and web addresses, a study skills checklist, some interesting dates to remember each month, and more. There are even stress relievers for the teacher at the end. This may not have everything that the super home school organizers have in those big binders that cost a fortune, but you also get what you need to do the job without a lot of stuff you will never use. I used to have two different models of the big binders, and felt a bit guilty when I didn't have time to do everything they had space for. And this book is one third of the price I paid for those big binders that were too big to be handy to use. This is spiral-bound for easy use and storage. 96 pages. BTH- 3898 $12.56-D
