Organizing School Papers and Info
This week friends of mine complained that school has only started and they are already drowning in paperwork. The forms and information to fie for each child, plus children’s homework and deadlines seem overwhelming, especially for large families.
It takes a system to stay afloat. I wrote an article about this topic that helps parents set up colored files (one for each child) for easy access. Read it at http://www.suite101.com/functions/article/edit.cfm/151766
The main idea is to have a safe place to keep the incoming papers. Then, at calmer moments go through those papers and process them (sign, file, toss as needed). Outgoing papers to teachers should be placed in a child’s backpack as soon as done.
Increasing in Him,
