How to use these calendar templates

These calendar templates are meant to be used on your homeschool wall

calendar. They fit perfectly on the large poster board or bulletin board sized

calendars found at most teacher supply stores. These templates were

chosen with the day of the homeschool family in mind. They help to organize

your family, school day, appointments, and even everyday chores. The

templates are in a triangle shape so that the date on the calendar will not be

covered up. The pages may be photo copied for use within your own family.

To help the pieces last year after year, we suggest that you have them

laminated.

Each calendar template is trimmed in a correlating color. The color of the trim

matches the color of the storage pocket.

Cut out the pockets and glue them to the inside of a file folder. The markers

can then be stored in the correct pocket.

1. Open up the folder and flatten it out. 2. Take the right side and fold it all the

way over until the tab is just before the

middle crease in the folder. Do not

overlap this crease with the tab.

How to fold and connect the folders for your lapbook.

3. Fold the left hand side over just

to the crease but not overlapping it.

Your folder now has two flaps. We

like to run a ruler down each fold to

make the fold neater and flatter.

4. Open your newly folded folder and flatten. Find the storage pockets at

the front of the book. They will need to be cut out and assembled first and

then glue onto the folder. Use the layout key for correct pocket placement.

Then cut out calendar templates and store into pockets according to color.

Color of template outline should match color of pocket it goes into. Blank

templates are provided for your own personalization.
