Homeschoolers have been enjoying the amazing Well Planned Day organizers and academic planning books for years. But now there is something new and exciting and I’m thrilled to be able to share it with you!
My Well Planned Day Software is a newly released, subscription based software program that will allow you to plan your calendar, customize and formulate lesson plans, assign those lesson plans, as well as chores, to-do’s, events, etc. to each person in your family as you need to. You can even do all your menu planning right in the calendar.
I have been trying it out for a short time now and I see great potential. I entered in the curriculum we’ll be using in fall. Then I made up some lesson plans and assigned them to my kids. Each person is a different color on my calendar, so when I click on the calendar view I can see exactly what each person is assigned.
Not only that, but the part I’m most excited about is the grading and record keeping. Once I have graded the assignment, I can pull up the assignment in the schedule, give it a mark (either letter grade, number grade, no grade, or whatever kind of grade I add such as grading on a 4.0 scale) and mark it completed. Later I can pull up the reports and I’ll have everything I need in one place!! That’s what I’m looking forward to the most!
This is a new product so there are some features that are not functioning yet that will make the system even more usable for the average woman. This includes having apps for any digital tablet on the market.
One of the things I think may cause some to give up quickly when learning to use it is the fact that it takes time to set up. I took a few hours to watch the tutorials in order to learn how to get everything set up and ready to use. Then actually setting up and customizing it for my family took some time (and there’s still more I’ll need to do before we start school in a few weeks). But once it’s all set up the system is easy and ready to use.
