it all done" is a home-school mother’s greatest challenge. Managers
of Their Homes: A Practical Guide to Daily Scheduling for Christian Homeschool
Families offers solutions! Responses by families who have read Managers of Their Homes and utilized the included Scheduling Kit indicate
the almost unbelievable improvements they have realized.
Managers of
Their Homes step-by-step guidelines, using a uniquely developed
set of worksheets, makes the setting up of a daily schedule easily achievable
for any home-school family. "People have told me for years that
I need a schedule, but every time I tried I couldn’t get one to work.
I always had problems with fitting everything that needed to be done into
one day. With your system, I am actually accomplishing more, and I have
more time left over! The key to it is the great worksheets. They are invaluable."
Designed for ease of use, this large format, spiral-bound book will lie
flat for reference while using the Scheduling Kit. Moms love the bright,
multi-colored Master Schedule they create and the simplicity of revisions
when needed.
Managers of
Their Homes sets a firm Biblical foundation for scheduling a home-school
family’s days, in addition to discussing the numerous benefits of
scheduling. Chapter after chapter is filled with many practical suggestions
providing efficient, workable ways to schedule. One chapter is devoted
to overcoming obstacles to scheduling and another to direction for the
implementation process. A "Questions and Answers" chapter is
made up of real questions from home-school mothers putting a schedule
together. The thirty real-life schedules found in the Appendix will give
any home-schooling mother valuable insight into developing a personalized
schedule for her family. A chapter written by a dad, for dads, rounds
out the practicality of Managers of Their Homes. Whether new to
scheduling or a veteran, home-schooling mothers will benefit greatly from
this book.
Written by Steve
and Teri Maxwell, parents of eight children and seasoned home schoolers
of fourteen years, here are some of the differences Managers of Their
Homes has made in these homes:
- "I
had read almost every organizational book there was, and I still couldn’t
get to where I wanted to be until I applied this method!" Corrie
- "My schedule
has given me back my sanity!! I can’t believe the way my life has
changed since implementing a schedule." Tracy L.
- "There is so
much "more" time available for our use now." Ellen
- "My initial investment
of time making my schedule has paid off with interest." Lorrie
- "When we are
on our schedule, there is much more peace; we get more done; and I don’t
feel stressed by making decisions all day." Pauline
- "It’s so
pleasant and easy I find myself thinking, ‘What am I doing wrong;
this is too easy!’" Robyn
