School Organization

With Elizabeth and Nin both doing school work this year, I wanted an easy way for them to know where to put their stuff AND be able to tell which math worksheet was their own (they're both doing Saxon math).  I also wanted an easy way for Daddy to tell whose work is whose when he gets home each afternoon.  I knew it would also help him on nights that he needs to oversee doing side B of the math worksheet. I decided to do little laminated tags attached to magnetic clips on the fridge.  I have these magnetic clothespins from The Container Store and I attached the laminated tags to them.  Here are the tags along with credits...

Elizabeth:

The papers and floral embellishments are from Zoe Pearn's kit Summer Sorbet (Sweetshoppedesigns.com).  The font her name is in is....um....Rockford (how could I draw a blank on that, it's a favorite!!!)

 

 Katherine:

Everythiing from Lauren Grier and Sir Scrap-a-lot.  Not sure if this is still sold anywhere as Lauren as recently moved her shop.  The kit name is Springtime in Paris.  Font is Curlz MT, which I usually stay far, far away from because it's soooooo over-used.  But it looks cute here and fits!  Want to lose my interest quick - use Curlz MT or Scriptina....blech!!!  But...I did just that!!!

 

Annie: 

Everything from Kristin Cronin-Barrow (sweetshoppedesigns.com)  Prince Charming mini kit.  Font is Patti.  That's it...just Patti.  Check dafont.com since that's usually where I get my fonts.  :) 

Harrison: 

Granted, he's not officially in school; but,  I thought he didn't need to be left out.  And sometimes he *does* do "handwriting":....



His tag is from MandaBean's "Paul" mini-kit (sweetshoppedesigns.com) from their quarterly sampler LAST quarter -- not the one that is currently for sale in their shop.  I love the sock monkey stuff for him, especially since he has a quilt made with fabrics that have sock monkeys printed on them.  (the one my friend Mary made...Harrison and I both love it!).  Oh and the font for his name is One Stroke Script LET - again, check dafont.com...I have no idea!  :)   

So...there are their tags (please notice...homonyms, each spelled correctly....please, recognize this!!!! ROFL).  They are hanging on the side of the fridge, ready to hold their work - either for later in the day or  for Daddy to see when he gets home.  Love them.  The kids love them.  We're all happy homeschoolers!  Pictures of homeschooling to come later.
