Household and Homeschool Pages
Today's Plan
A master plan for the day which includes a schedule with half hour slots, a to do list, a menu planner, and a notes section.
Weekly Planner with Menu Planner on Opposite Page
Available unlined and unlined
The planner is designed to be printed double-sided with the Weekly Planner on one side and the Menu Planner on the other. The Weekly Planner should be hole-punched on the left side of the page which will leave the Menu Planner punched on the right side. When your Planner is open on your desk, the Weekly Planner page will be on the right, with the Menu Planner and Grocery List on the left.
The pages are all designed to fit in a standard 8 1/2" x 11" three ring binder. If you print the pages double-sided, your clip-off grocery list will be on the back of last week's To Do list. As you finish the week, copy any incomplete items from this week's To Do list onto the list for next week and clip your grocery list for next week off so you can start your week with all of the items you need for your menu plan. If you are looking for menus that are already planned out for you, check out Add Salt & Serve's free meal plans.
Menu Planner / To Do / Chore Chart
The combined Menu Planner / To Do / Chore Chart can help you keep track of multiple household tasks for yourself and/or children all in one place. There are two pages one for the left with columns for the day's menu, mom's to do list, and 2 child columns. The page for the right has 4 child columns.
Weekly Assignment Pages
There are three different Weekly Assignment pages, with columns for one, two, or three children. If you have two students, you may choose either the two column Weekly Assignment page, or the one column and give one to each child. I suggest filling out and keeping the master assignment sheet in mom's planner, and copying the complete assignment sheet to give to each child. By using the one column Weekly Assignment page, you allow more room in each column to detail assignments.
Using the Weekly Planner with Weekly Assignment Sheets:
The Weekly Planner is designed to be hole-punched on the left side of the page, and the Weekly Assignments/Unschooling Record Keepers are designed to be hole punched on the right side of the page. When your Planner is open on your desk, the Weekly Planner page will be on the right, with the Assignments/Unschooling Record Keeper page opposite the corresponding Weekly Planner page on the left. The pages are all designed to fit in a standard 8 1/2 x 11 three ring binder.
Although the planner pages can be copied two-sided with the Weekly Planner on one side and the Assignment Sheet on the other side, the most practical way to use the planner is to print the pages single-sided, and to use the appropriate Weekly Assignment page opposite each Weekly Planner page. This allows you to add other relevant pages between each week for quick reference, while still allowing both the Planner and the Assignment pages to be seen simultaneously.
Unit Study Planner and Log
The Unit Study Planner can help you organize your resources and pull it all together. The Unit Study Planner is designed to be used as you initially plan your unit. It allows you to list all of your resources, set your goals for your unit, and begin to organize your unit.
Once you have organized a list of your resources and visited the library to finalize the books you have available, the Unit Study Log can be used to record your lesson plans. It has columns to list the activities you plan to do for the unit, including the date, the activity, the amount of time planned for the activity, and any supplies needed or notes for the activity.

Troubleshooting Guide:
If you cannot login, make sure there are no trailing or leading spaces in the email address or password if you copy and paste. Email and password are case sensitive, so use all lowercase letters.
If the Planner files do not open for you, try right clicking them and choosing the Save Target As command, saving the file to your desktop. Open the Acrobat Reader, and using the Open... command from the File menu, choose the file you have saved to your desktop. If your Acrobat Reader does not have a picture of a disk on the menu bar, or you click the disk and it says the file cannot be saved, you will need to obtain the current version of Acrobat Reader. If you still cannot open the file, it may have been corrupted in transit.
Thank you!
You are welcome. Have a great homeschool year!
Looking forward,
Jeanne
Thank you!!!
I love this! The only thing I would like more is a copy I could type into on excel!
this is the best resource i have found. i usually get overwhelmed when looking at planner pages because there is too much going on and i do better with simple layouts. yet i usually do not find one with all the info i need on one page. i am so glad i found yours. its like it was made for me.
I'm glad you like it, Misty! I wanted to keep it clean and useful and avoid a design that would use a lot of printer ink).

I’m not able to subscribe. I have a hotmail account and I’m not getting the subscriber email.
Hi LaVerne - Have you checked your junk/spam folder? Some providers filter emails for you.
This is wonderful, thank you!
You are very welcome!
Thank you for the work that went into creating this awesome resource for us. Blessings!
You are very welcome! Enjoy. 🙂
I am trying to subscribe so that I can download the free planner sheets but I am not receiving an email. I have put in my email half a dozen times and am not getting a confirmation email to my inbox or my junk mail. What do I do?
I have entered my email several times and I'm not receiving and email so I get get the subscriber downloads. Can you add me?
Hi Anna - did you check in the Promotions tab in your inbox? Gmail almost always puts the confirmation in there.
Hi Stefanie - I'm sorry for the trouble. Have you checked your bulk/junk/spam folder in Hotmail to see if the confirmation is there? I have not gotten a bounce notice for your email address.
I see now that you said you have checked. I will add your address manually and let you know when it's done.
Thank you so much!
Thank you bunches for the planner. Very useful. I'm very new to homeschooling my high school son. Still exploring our options. A++ for your planner!
You are welcome! Glad you find it useful. 🙂
Hi. I have repeatedly tried to subscribe. I have not yet received a confirmation email. Might I already have subscribed years ago, when first started preparing for homeschooling? Is there a way that can be checked? If I have subscribed years ago, might you delete me so that I can subscribe and get the newsletters you send out, please? I don't seem to have anything in my email from here and am looking to start both my kiddos unschooling this coming school year. Please, may you help me? Thanks so very much! 🙂
Hi Kimberly - Your email address was not on the list (I can only assume that the confirmation emails are being blocked by Hotmail for some reason). I have added the address you submitted with your comment and you should be able to use that as the username and morningcoffee as the password to login and download the planner. Sorry for the trouble.
Hi, I have subscribed but have not received an email link yet.
Hi Anna - I've added your address manually since it didn't go through. You should be able to download the files now. Sorry for the delay!
Is there any way to make this A5 size. I would LOVE to put this in my Kikki K planner and utilise 🙂
Thanks so much
Although the pages can't be reworked, you could use the printer function to force the planner pages to fit on an A5 page.
Hi there! I love the planner! Thank you so much!! It would be nice to have a sheet of weekly hour tracking. The page might have to be oriented landscape, but it would be nice to have an hour column down the side and then the 7 days of the week listed beside it so I could track what was done on what day and when. You could maybe even include a total at the bottom. That way I can track my hours for the week without having to have a page per day (like on the daily tracker page). I hope this makes sense! Thanks!
Thank you! This has saved me mountains of work.
Thank you for sharing! I've been looking for a planner and other things to print for sometime now. This will also help me with homeschooling. Bless you!
I'm glad you find it helpful! Enjoy. 🙂
This is the best homeschool tool that I have! I have been waiting for the 2017-18 version!! This is so clean and professional looking... it has streamlined so much of my life! Love it!! Thank you!!
Sorry it took so long to get the 2017/2018 version out - hopefully things will be less hectic next year!
Hello, I just moved to New York from Texas and we had wanted to look at the home school program here. It was pretty simple in Texas to where used certain curriculums and then annotated everything on Grade Sheet. Is there anything different for New York that I would have to get certified/verified to make sure my son's graduation diploma is official?
Since homeschooling is regulated by the state, TheHomeSchoolMom does not offer guidance on legal requirements. We suggest that you get in touch with local groups and ask there. You can get started by looking through our page for New York homeschool groups, where you'll see both statewide and local groups.
Best wishes on your continued homeschool journey!
Thank you SO MUCH for these copies!!! I am new to the idea of home-schooling my son since he's having such a tough transition from elementary up to middle school. These organizational charts are such a great tool.
You are very welcome, Deb! Best wishes on your homeschool journey.
