Rollabind Notebooks are Great for Homeschool Notebooking

Rollabind notebooks take up less space than binders.   Little discs and a unique hole puncher by Rollabind make nice notebooks in our homeschool.  Page can be added and removed anywhere in the notebook.  That comes in quite handy for the student who does not like to write on the back next to the spine.  Take the paper out, do the writing and reinsert.  Clear plastic covers make it easy to customize the front.  We use them for science, writing and history.

I also use these notebooks to organize articles I print out from the Internet or my Logos Bible Software.  I have notebooks for different sections of the Bible -  the Pentateuch, History, Wisdom literature, Gospels, Letters, etc.


My cute little recipe books are put together with Rollabind discs as well.  




You may only care about this if you are as much of an organizing junkie as I am.
Pages can be easily removed and place in other locations in the notebook..
The clear covers customize each notebook for its content.

Write it down in a Notebook


Notebooks are on the left side of the desk, kitty underneath
Part of my collection of notebooks that I keep on my desk

Right before school starts, composition notebooks can be purchased for a song, twenty-five cents a piece at Wal-Mart or Target.    I stock up and use them for anything and everything:  lists, garden notes, money, wellness (recipes and health information), addresses, Latin vocabulary, Spanish vocabulary, lesson plans, a reading journal, Bible studies, etc.  I keep them on my desk in between book ends with the name of the notebook written on the top using a marker.  That way it is easier to pull out just the right one the first time.


Write the alphabet up in the corner - 3 pages per letter for an address book.
Garden notes and plans
Glue charts and other notes inside.


Take notes in a wellness journal after reading a good book
on  eating  well, exercise.  Tape recipes inside.

Home school Bible study - more on this to come!

Organizing Homeschool Supplies

Book case dedicated exclusively to homeschool supplies
An inexpensive label maker was used to make the labels.

Labels on the boxes:  math manipulatives, journals, staples, paint, stamps, chalk, etc.
