M*****'s Home School ~~
Home of the Rottweilers.
We started this blog with the purpose of sharing information with our friends and family, but most of all to give our students more experience in writing, publishing and improving their communication skills. But changes and life marched on and now this blog serves as a record of our school progress and some of that life that marches.

Out of Magnets
What is your system for keeping school papers? Do you hang papers on the fridge or wall? How many do you keep and if you homeschool, how long do you keep completed work?
I decorated a shoe box with wrapping paper and cut out letters like ABC and 123 then but my princess name on it- _____ School Box. I'm going to keep everything from her preschool unless the box fills up then I will have to go through it. I going to make one for her little brother too since he bring home things from daycare.
Hi :)De, I always posted artwork on the walls and kept reports, but I tossed worksheets. I kept math and science tests for when the kids went to high school, but nobody (and I mean nobody) was interested in them. We also did a homeschool magazine at the end of each year which included their favorite work - articles, quotes, Bible verses, art work, reports, puzzles etc. That is the best record of their schooling I have.
You don't want to know. I've kept every single scrap of paper that Baby Boy has ever written on. They are neatly organized and labeled and stored in the attic by school year.
Luckily I only have one child, or this could really be a discussion about hoarding, LOL.
Sorry I can't be any help. Maybe I'll learn something from the other comments. ;-)

Be ever so blessed.
That is a very cool idea. I will present the magazine idea to them... I think they will like it too.
thanks & Peace

Mom #1, LOL!! When I had only 1 child I too kept every piece of paper that he wrote, scribbled on or even sneezed on! LOL! So I know!
