Oh my. I am already overwhelmed at min 9

[@MemesHomeschoolHub]

Your enthusiasm is so infectious!!!! Thank you for sharing how you homeschool. God bless you and your family!

[@kristiclover]

+Arla Alexander Thanks so much! So sweet of you to say! Blessings to you and your family!

[@fandbwelch3768]

I implemented this system this year and it’s been our most organized, productive year so far. Thanks!

[@Sdewebb]

I find binding all subjects in one single book for each quarter works well for my family. My girls like having a single book for all their subjects. They also like having a simple visual of how far along we are through the school year. After they finish 1st quarter they can easily see that they are 1/4 of the way through the school year. I bind at home with a simple comb binding machine.

[@anishajmade1133]

Do you have a KZbin channel? I would love to see a video on the binder method you use.

[@kristiclover]

Is it silly that I love binding things too? Ha! I have one of those binding machines too. So satisfying.

[@ciannacoleman5125]

Lol your first tip is one I was just thinking about! I was watching another KZbin who said she gave each day’s work in a binder and i was sitting here thinking “no give the entire week so they can decide what and how much they want to do each day” If they want to do all of one subject one day and a variety the next, let them. Also had the same thought about taking apart workbooks lol. Love the way you have organized your stuff! Thank you for sharing this with others!

[@robstephedgington7412]

You have me so excited about getting organized!! My oldest is 4.5 and we're just embarking on this crazy journey. I'm also really interested in that handwriting curriculum you mentioned. Just a thought about the folders coming in 100s...if for example you're using the left sided red tabs for one child, take the right sided red tabs and turn them "inside out" - you've just doubled the number you can get from one box! :) Obviously for your poor middle tab child, you're stuck.

[@awesomemermaid2796]

🎉I know a lot of people put the entire week of all subjects into one week- but then the child would have to figure out out to separate the daily papers between subjects- as they’re all mashed together. I like the idea of separating out daily work with all daily subjects into the weekly file by days into folders. Or at least- separating the subjects in folders into a weekly file- then the child knows to pick one paper from each folder of the week daily.

[@kristiclover]

I have an entire homeschool organization course that goes into all the nuances of how to make the crate system work. You really have to find a system that works for you and your kiddo.

[@kristiea3897]

Thank you!! We just started this year and I NEED this video!! Hugs! ♥️

[@veronicaberkemeier5667]

Thank you so much for this video! I struggled my first year of homeschooling, especially with the whole writing in the dates of the week's comment at the end! I will try all of these systems this year and take your advice. I'm so excited!

[@simply_andreastewart]

You are so helpful! I’ve been trying to figure out how to organize all the materials we want to utilize. ❤️

[@Healedhomegirl]

Thank you this has blessed me tremendously

[@Seasoncromwell]

This is GREAT!! Also, thank you for acknowledging those w ONE child. You are the first person to say it from ALLLLL the videos I see. It's all how to organize w multiple kids which is amazing and so needed but not needed for everyone. I'm just starting out, we have one, but I still need some suggestions. So again, thank you for including us.

[@laquitadeshaallison72177]

O My Goodness!!! This was so so so helpful, just what I’ve needed help with. I have been all over the place with my 2nd and 5th grader. I’m so glad to have found your video! This was the first video that came up for me and I didn’t seem to have to look further 😃. I appreciate you for sharing. Yes!

[@shynycedesigns1137]

Please bless me with her enthusiasm 😍 inspiring❤❤

[@lovely4833]

I heard someone say Kristi Clover method when I mentioned how I set up our weeks in the file system like your crate system and I use a binder by subject that we fill with our current week. And then here you are popping up in my youtube. Love this! I tried it for our first year and made it complicated in my head and dropped it. I went back to it and adjusted this year, it’s been fabulous. Great minds think alike and so happy there are others doing this same system with success. Thank you for sharing.

[@gpalmer6168]

First time here and this is The Best System Ever! Thank you for making it so much simpler to all of us :)

[@lakiajohnson4508]

Thank you! I needed this!

[@elisarocillo1781]

So great! My boys and I love this video!

[@prepperjonpnw6482]

WOW!!! In her effort to help you simplify your homeschooling she definitely overwhelmed me!! lol I had to watch the video 3 times and take notes lol I’ll definitely be checking out all of the links she has in the description menu. Tonnes of resources!!

[@kristiclover]

:) You're so cute! I have a course that goes into all the details that you might have been confused by. You can check it out at HomeschoolOrganization.com :) I do have lots of other resources for homeschooling on my site, too. I love helping people out with all things homeschooling.

[@journalsofathirddensitytra3498]

Wow thanks!!

[@javidiqbal4056]

I appreciate this channel.your channel is very good.

[@chadhaney2003]

Hello! I love your crate organization idea! Would you mind sharing which colored file folders you use? Do you buy a box of one color and then just pull the "right hand" tab out for each color or did you find them separated? Thanks so much!

[@jenniferlathrum4968]

Hello! Thanks so much for sharing! Where can I find a better picture of your checklist & planning sheets? Thanks so much!

[@ashliejohnson6742]

What do you do when the workbook has the front of the page for one week and the back of the page for the next week?

[@NotSoPerfectHomeschool]

Just subscribed! Fellow California homeschool mama here!

[@kristiclover]

Yay! Hope to have more homeschool videos coming. :)

[@pearlb3645]

I didn't know you can get things they've worked on bound. Love this idea. Where do I go to do that?

[@melissamiller2231]

I want to try this method. How do you get the folders to stay upright? Do you also have hanging ones in there it looks like? I would greatly appreciate some help. Thank you!

[@Gigichew]

great video! I came onto youtube to find a video on how to run the first day of homeschool and instead i found this video. Thank you!

[@kristiclover]

Yay! If you are looking for more help with homeschooling, I have lots of resources on my site...and a book (Homeschool Basics)...and a new webinar (How to Homeschool). Those are linked in the notes above. :)

[@anaholt4739]

Thanks for sharing this info. I am curious, how you get to keep homeschooling your older children in terms teenage social skills? My older children are refusing to be home schooled because they want to be with their friends, they say they can't stand being at home with me all day? 😕 they want their friends.

[@shaialguno9788]

new subbie here! Thank you for sharing! now have a toddler and trying out to homeschool him. Now watching this 2022! hahaha

[@kristiclover]

I know this is late...but based on the "toddler" comment, my advice will still work. Just focus on having fun with your little one. Don't try to do any formal "homeschooling" with him until he's officially at school age...and even then, keep it fun. I have a book called Homeschool Basics (on Amazon) that goes into getting started and I discuss my technique I call "sneaky school" that I used with my younger kids.

[@kimjaymama26]

Has any one tried this? I saw this video a few years ago and my A type brain loved it. But I have never tried it. This year we are 4 kids in school and all using pdfs so I feel I could do it this way. But what do we do with it afterwards? After the week is done? Put it back in the box? Put each subject in a subject binder? How would I organize it to keep it or store it after the year is done. I would be interested to know if Kristi herself still uses this system. Could you do an update video on this please?

[@kristiclover]

I love that you circled back. I ended up creating a Homeschool Organization Course and have had more than 1,400 families go through it. Some people just watch this and do my crate system as described here. But that's all to say, yes, families have used these methods for years now. :) Hope it blesses your family! It really helps with larger families.

[@kashifhaider9767]

You are awesome Kristi big hug from Pakistan 🇵🇰..I am aj.hoge student learning English..i listened your interview with aj

[@monicarussell6326]

How did u get the blue folders all in the same side?

[@sjostrom610]

Where do you find tests? I’m having a hard time finding tests.

[@eliselester8304]

Wow this is very overwhelming and intimidating to me. I do have a question about ripping the pages out of the workbook. Would you not save them for your younger children and just make copies of the individual pages out of the workbook? Do you not do that because of copyright reasons or maybe it’s more cost effective just to buy a new workbook instead of making multiple copies for younger children?

[@ceeceeme3019]

Hey sis my name is sharon too 😅 thanks so much for sharing God bless

[@ciannacoleman5125]

“We aren’t going to use all of this curriculum, but we aren’t going to use all of this other one either” lol the beauty of homeschooling!

[@ghosthunter8151]

I have a 5 year old only child. It is hard to motivate her to do school work. How do I get her to sit down and practice writing. I use Adaptive Mind and she loves it for Reading, Science and math. But writing seems like a fight every time.

[@TubaUstun]

high can you give me advice for 1 st grade book. which books should I buy, thank you

[@kristiclover]

Hey there! I have TONS of new resources available for homeschool families. One that I think you will really like is all the Amazon lists I created in my Amazon store. I have a few that are focused on reading books for kids. If you head to Amazon.com/shop/KristiClover, you'll see all those lists. I also have resources at: KristiClover.com/HomeschoolHelp and KristiClover.com/Resources (and /Homeschooling). :) Sonlight has some great reading lists, too! :) You can check them out at: KristiClover.com/Sonlight :) Hope that helps!

+MrsChrissy G. Thanks so much!

[@SilentlyAdorable]

I love this channel. I have decided to take my kids out of school and homeschool them this upcoming year. Nv has fallen to dead last in the United States. I feel that they are being robbed of their education and I could do it better without them being stressed out. My only issue is doing it while being low income. Your channel gives me hope.

[@kristiclover]

+SilentlyAdorable Yay! I'm so excited for you! :) There are lots of ways to homeschool for cheap. Your library will be your best friend.

[@ColonialFlorals]

Ambleside also gives you free online curriculum for the Charlotte Mason Method. It's a wonderful curriculum! Check out Craigslist and EBay for inexpensive curriculum. :)

[@SilentlyAdorable]

+Home Ec Obsessed thanks

[@SilentlyAdorable]

+Leslie Sutton thanks

[@mleonard3163]

+SilentlyAdorable Always happy to see a new homeschool convert! Good luck in your journey. You could search the internet (sites like MeetUp and FaceBook) for homeschool groups in your area. YOu can get mentoring help as well as occasional outings. You may even be able to score some free or cheap curriculum that someone else is done with.

[@elizabethackereizen5201]

OMG I have to check out your blog, I have 5 children and 4 will be doing school this year, two are still young I have a preschooler and a first Grader. Then two older a 4th grader and 8th grader. This past school year I really tried to organize with a check board and it was an epic fail. I end up with piles of books all over my kitchen, I am going to do the crate system, Thank you so much for sharing your gift of organizing.

[@kristiclover]

Thanks so much! I'm so glad that you liked it. The crate system is awesome. If you feel like you need more direction with getting organized, I did just create a new eCourse all about organizing your homeschool and all the "stuff" that goes with it. Here's a link to it if you want to see it: www.raisingclovers.com/buynow {You don't have to "buy now"...you can just look}

[@MelanatedandWellEducated]

Yes! Weekly planning, color coding & handy dandy crates! Love it!

[@Krisstofers]

Especially loved the follow up to the checklist!!! We are constantly having those... "MISSED"... weeks, and when you've dated something in ink... NOOOOOOOO!!!! ...Completely understand that!!! Thank you!!!

[@mandiedoss8749]

so so so helpful!!! I have 7 kiddos and 6 are homeschooling this year. We've been homeschooling for a total of 6 years now. This is amazing , had never seen this system before, this is going to help a lot! Thank you, so blessed to have found you on here!

[@kristiclover]

+Mandie Doss Yay! You will LOVE this system! The crates are awesome! You may need two crates with so many doing work at the same time. Can't wait to hear how it goes!

[@sierraulseth3561]

I've watched this videos a dozen times and just keep getting more out of it! Thanks for sharing

[@p.schulte2466]

Thank God for you!

[@sugarlump243]

You can flip left or right tabbed folders inside out to make them the opposite side. It's also a good way to reuse the ones you've written on.

[@kristiclover]

Elizabeth Conley Yes, I did that. I was only really stuck for the middle tabbed folders. Thanks for mentioning it here. I think I said that in one of the "chopped" portions of this finished video. :) Ha! So glad you came by and commented. Blessings!

[@kellieschwabe5970]

Greetings from Canada! I have schooled at home for 8 years and thought I had it partially down! I finally watched your video and am so inspired to completely overhaul our HS room! thank you so much for sharing your tips!

[@joanicide]

You are so friendly! Not only is your advice good but your friendliness make me want to take it :)

[@HomeschoolontheHill]

I've color-coded my boys for years (even outside of the classroom)!!! Love your energy...thanks for sharing these tips!

[@PepperandPine]

Great tips! Thanks for sharing. We also take apart workbooks. I take a stack of them to the office supply store; they can cut up to 500 sheets for $1. Then for another $1, I have them 3-hole punch them. Saves a lot of time and keeps pages from getting torn down the middle! -Hana

[@kristiclover]

+Pepper and Pine Great tip!! I love that! I might have to try that next year.

[@mleonard3163]

+Pepper and Pine That's an excellent tip! I didn't know you could have that done at, and for so cheap! I'm going to do that. I make copies of all the workbooks so that I can pass all our curriculum on to my nephew so he and his wife can homeschool their daughters.

[@PepperandPine]

Mary, that's so generous of you! And an equally good idea :)

[@LiveAlaska]

Thank you for sharing these great resources and especially your joyful spirit. We love having an organized homeschool system!!

[@SuperSammie85]

I love this! I am always struggling with how to organize and sort. I am so glad i found your channel.

[@cmomoffive]

You are so right! The "How to organize" was one of my biggest fears about homeschooling as well. I just gotta tell you, I am as you say, "organizationally challenged" so I love your system. But I do have to admit, I have had to watch your video, like a gazillion times so that I can wrap my brain around it! I'm one of the slow students! LOL! But I think I got it.... maybe! Oh and tearing up the workbooks feels so naughty, yet fun!

[@kristiclover]

+Claudia Seidle Ha!! It's not naughty. :) It is fun! I'm working on putting together a thorough Homeschool Organization eCourse right now. I'll be explaining everything. (I'd wanted it done by now...but life keeps getting in the way). :) Hopefully that will help. It will be available on my site (www.raisingclovers.com), but I'll do a video about it here, too.

[@cmomoffive]

+Raising Clovers Awesome! Can't wait to see it! I understand about life getting in the way!BTW - I think you said you were a mom of 5 and homeschooling 3. That's the very same situation for me!

[@lastofatruebreed]

Wow! I just found you tonight and you already are blessing me. I have a toddler so I just started, but I'm already overwhelmed and questioning our home school decision. If you have advice on toddler curriculum, activities, even field trips that would be so awesome to hear about. GOD BLESS YOU!

[@ThePurpleAlphabet]

I like what you said about planning for the week, not by day. Great tip.

[@kristiclover]

The Purple Alphabet Thanks! Yes, I've found it really helpful to only plan for the week.

[@Stormraye22]

I'm only 3 minutes in and I LOVE this already! I'm new to homeschooling (just finished our first year) and we are fairly new to our own KZbin channel, and I'm definitely going to try these out! Thank you so much for the video!

[@midgardenerslc6556]

This is our tenth year of homeschooling and I wish I has found your box system years ago. I was just diagnosed with a chronic pain issue and I have to simplify my life. This is our second week with the system and I am amazed. It has cut down on time I need to plan for every week. I have matched that with the work box system and it is fantastic. I had a high pain day on Thursday and my son was able to grab all of his work and we did school from my bed. Thank you for sharing your awesome system.

[@kristiclover]

You're welcome! I have an entire homeschool organization course. It's going to be on sale on Black Friday and again at the first of the year. That might help, too. It is so helpful to use the crate!

[@audreychen5210]

thank you for your reply and advice. i will look into your blogs.

[@gratituderanch9406]

if you use the pro clip binding system, you can simply print new pages and add them in. need to look into the hanging file system. what we used last year, and haven't this year, is I made a check list for my daughter of all the subjects, I put a dot on the subjects I planned to cover, and put an x when I actually finished them. helped me see if I was planning more than we could handle, and I could fit a few weeks on one page.

[@saraswebscrochet3333]

love your videos and absolutely LOVE this one!!.. Thank you. it's a blessing to receive your help thru here. :)

[@Rhonda_Godsdaughter]

Oh my goodness. Bless you. I am a homeschooler for the 2nd year and I struggle. I have a 11th grader and a 7th grader. We are Christians and I can not afford to buy the Christian curriculum that is out there. I make my own. I wish I had found your channel when I first started homeschooling. I plan to watch a lot of your videos and get a lot of ideas from you. Thank you so much for this and blessing and favor to you and your house hold

[@kristiclover]

+Spanky Cola Thanks so much for all your kind words! Thanks for checking out my other videos. Be sure to give yourself lots of grace since it's only your second year. It is hard work, but the rewards are amazing! Praying for God's blessings over your family and homeschool! :)

[@irisbailar3980]

I am using a very reasonably priced homeschool website that has everything you need. The money you have to spend after that will be science experiment resources, which they give you a link to, and printer paper and ink. I only print in black and white. The website is home schoolhouseteachers.com last year I spent $600 on books; this year I spent $170 for this system. Right now they are having a sale that's $40 less and for a second year.

[@MamaJess]

So thankful I found your channel! You've given me some great ideas!

[@Grooovie725]

I am so glad to have found you!!! This is my first year homeschooling. I'm taking my son out of a CS in NYC. I was completely overwhelmed at the mere thought of organizing this new adventure. Thank you soooooooo much. I'm about to jump into your other videos.

[@kristiclover]

+isac wear I'm glad you liked the video. I'm replying here since there is not link to reply to your comment. I just wanted to tell you that I'm working on a blog post and video all about homeschooling toddlers and preschoolers. My advice for now is to just enjoy them and relax and play! Kids learn through playing! :) Have fun! :) Get library books out on topics they are interested in. Hope that helps.

My son is doing K 12 and I am learning how to be orgnized with the stuff, So thank you for showing

[@Searching4Simplicity]

Thanks for this help! I came across it at the beginning of this school year (2016-17) and it has been SO helpful. I have used your check list idea. I modified some of the rest of it. We've got the hanging file folders by week like you suggested. And inside the hanging files the color coded files by kid. Then I color code subject with different color paper clips and leave incomplete work in the hanging files. At the end of the week we move each kid's work into their binder. I separate work in the binder by subject with color coded tabs to match the paper clips. It's been a huge help for our organization this year! Thanks again.

[@jenniferwhittaker2106]

Thank you so much for sharing, I am new at homeschooling and my daughter is starting kindergartens this has helped me a lot.

[@asmrsamantha2540]

Thank you for the awesome video!!! I'm going to do this.

[@kristiclover]

TheNoacks Absolutely! I'm so glad that you like it! I feel bad that it took so long to put together, but so happy it is done. :) Praying it does bless your family & your homeschool

[@lulylulyanka2676]

these methods can be very useful with keeping up with public school too!

[@crystallevin1631]

I"m a homeschool mom of 7 and I loved your video we are looking for new ways to organize our school and this was fabulous I have 5 actually schooling and one preschooler and a baby! This is going to help me get my act together LOL I'm excited to start! we school year round so I may tweek it to fit our needs but that's why we homeschool right :D

[@dwmmshouseofharmony4966]

Thhhhhaaaaaakkkk Youuuu.... lol Sorry I have been trying to find ways to do this more efficiently and organized and here you are .... this helped me so much, I have 6 kids and it has been challenging being this is my first year how to do this so that I wont give up on it... I love it but I need to have everything I need but that of course is not always realistic, but this is a big help to me.

[@elysianicole8259]

I have a 2y/o I want to homeschool and pregnant with my second. I'm hoping to get some fun learning started when my son is 3. I'm loving your videos so that I can get reviews and see what is working for others! Thank You!

[@yvonnejohnson2109]

I just found your channel,Thank you for sharing. I have been trying to figure out how to organize for homeschool. I am going to have to try one of the systems you share. I have my four kids colored coded. But I only homeschool my youngest two.

Hello fellow Californian homeschooler! You are definitely more organized with your lessons than me! You are on it! We do a lot of unit studies so I tend to group things together that way. As a matter of fact I will be posting a homeschool room tour soon and showing off my lazy system of "organizing."

+It's A Mom Blog I love it!! Everyone has their own style! You have to do what works best for you and your family. I get everything organized -- then we see if we can realistically get to it all. Some times we just skip things that aren't working. I think that is the biggest lesson I've learned -- it's okay to not finish everything! :) My public school teachers always tell me that they don't finish all their books either. :)

I love your checklist, that's fantastic! :) I, like you, have in the past become very overwhelmed with planners and trying to keep up with everything weekly/daily. I usually write it all out on my white board so I don't feel to "committed" lol This is great! Thank you for sharing your many wonderful tips! Blessings!

rebecca White Yes, right?! I was always erasing all the that I worked so hard to write in my calendar. It was so frustrating! I really love this way of doing it! :) Hope it helps you this year! Thanks so much for commenting! Blessings!
