Organization: The Education Room

I am pleased to report that my living room is still organized and clean. Now, we have moved onto the education room. Our first step: to find everything that belongs in the room and decide where it should go. Then, we will have to actually finish the room. But, I think the first step is truly the goal because we also need to finish the foyer and that room ought to come first--it's what greets everyone.


We went shopping. Probably not a good thing. But, we decided each girl needed a separate work area so the fighting would stop. The fact the girls have separate work areas also means they can be messy without having to move everything around. One of the biggest challenges we face with homeschooling in our dining area is the space. I like to eat together but we cannot do that all the time if the table is covered in books and whatnot. So, we move it into piles. The piles tip over and spread across the floor--causing way less organization than we would have had otherwise. Organizing one space for all the school supplies will truly improve our lives. I just will have to give up lots of books for a yard sale.
