Kelly said...: Wow! I really love that whole calendar area-so coordinated and CUTE! I've wanted to try calendar notebooks for awhile, just need to figure out how to find additional time for calendar somehow! About how long does the whole routine take with the notebooks?

Otherwise they are working away and you are working away and its all GOOD! Last year to get started b/c I was a chicken to start w/ notebooks -- I just did stapled packets & pencil boxes behind kids! Worked GREAT too!

LOVE the Calendar Template packet!! GREAT ideas!! Well worth the $$!
Thanks!

One good thing about the calendar notebook is that new pages are added throughout the year. This way you aren't having to teach the whole thing in the first month. You can also pick and choose the pages you use. The kids get so good at it that they can do their notebook without you even doing the large calendar! They love their notebooks! Talk about common core, the calendar is all about number!; February 3, 2012 at 8:44 AM
