Bought some drawers for workboxes

Post by MelInKansas » Sat Aug 28, 2010 10:08 pm

Now am looking for resources to get started. Funny, I read another post where a woman with 7 kids said she couldn't do them, actually I was inspired by a woman with 5 kids who has a whole wall of boxes for her kids to use. That's a lot of boxes!

I have a 6 drawer cart I got for a good deal. AWANA goes in one drawer, and I suppose other workbooks in the others. But I am just looking for some information/resources on how to get started using them since I am a bit organizationally challenged. It doesn't just come to me. :shock:

Each of my kiddos has a tower for their books. The top drawer is supplies, pencils, scissors,etc. As for the rest of the drawers, it is a subject per drawer. I also let them keep my TE in their respective drawer, so when it's time for english they bring the student book and the TE to the table.

I know some people use the workboxes different that I do, which is mostly for storage, but I would google workboxes and homeschool and I think you will find a lot more information about workboxes and how people are using them.

Sue Patrick has a workbox system. You might be able to glean some good info from her site.
