Fantastic Friday – Getting Organized

Getting Organized this Summer:
In your home and homeschool

 

How are you doing with your morning, afternoon, and evening routines? I have a lot of freedom with my time by keeping my routines going. My routines have been a big help in getting through difficult times. The routines were what we could count on when everything else around us seemed chaotic.

 

Set your timer for 15 minutes for the Home Assignment and 15 minutes for the School Assignment

 

Home:

  • Make Your Bed (Do this as soon as you get up.)
  • Get Dressed Down to Your Shoes
  • Swish and Swipe
  • Start Your Laundry
  • Decide on Dinner
  • Check Your Calendar
  • Start the Day off with a Shiny Sink. Don’t leave the breakfast dishes sitting.

School:

  • How are you doing with getting ready for the school year? We are slowly adding back some math practice, and we have been reading this summer.

Afternoon Routine:

  • Eat Lunch
  • Clear off One Hot Spot
  • Reboot the Laundry
  • Declutter for 15 Minutes (Be sure to have your children declutter, too.)
  • Drink Your Water
  • Zone Focus: Declutter your medicine cabinet. Find a safe way to dispose of expired medications.

Family Fun: Have a water activity today, and think about planning a walk and picnic at a park for family fun day on Saturday.

 

Before Bed: (This starts right after dinner.) 

  • Check the Calendar for Tomorrow
  • Lay out Your Clothes for Tomorrow (Have your children lay their clothes out, too.)
  • Put things at your launch pad
  • Shine Your Sink
  • Clean Off a Hot Spot
  • Go to Bed at Decent Hour
