I found myself using a lot of sticky notes last year during our study of ECC. I didn't want to write in the teachers manual and I like to be able to rearrange things to fit our needs. I like the general grid in the teachers manual, but it doesn't include all our subjects (and has some we don't use). I had seen pages on Pinterest designed for a weekly menu that used sticky notes, and I liked the idea. I decided to create my own planning pages for the upcoming school year.
I designed a 2 page layout with a planning grid on the first page and weekly/daily boxes for sticky notes on the second page. I included a 2014-2015 one page school year calendar at the front. I kept it black & white to keep printing costs down. I can always write with colored pens and highlighters to add color, and use colored sticky notes of coarse :) I labeled the grid pages by week for 36 weeks. I like the flexibility of undated pages and I can add dates when we complete lessons. I can write my plans on sticky notes and rearrange them as needed. When completed, I can remove the sticky note and write what we did on the page for my records.
The 2014-2015 One Page School Calendar is also available separately as a free download - here's the link - http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/2014-2015-One-Page-School-Calendar-1342795
Happy Planning!
