If you caught a previous post on preparing for summer vacation, then you know there is a lot to do to get ready for summertime. Although our school doesn’t let out for summer until June 19, I have already begun to plot our busy summer schedule on my family’s Summer Planner (see Student Planning). As my children get older, our summers get more and more packed with obligations. Keeping up with all that we have to do on my calendar and planning out the steps and details on my to do lists (see Time Management) is the best method to accomplish all that needs to happen.
