How do you like to keep track of your paperwork and keep your speechie self organized? Do you use a computer-based calendar? A fancy expensive planner? A TPT product? Your phone? Post-it notes scattered all over your desk? I think I’ve probably used all of the above in the past. For some reason I keep going back to good old paper. I just love pretty printables and designs and washi tape.
Now I do use my outlook calendar for appointment reminders, but for the million other things I have to organize and keep track of I’m just loving my planner! A couple of you have asked how I set mine up and use it….so get excited because I made a little video to review it! I wanted to go ahead and show it to you now before I started filling it out with a bunch of confidential info. 😉 You can view it near the bottom of this post.
I’ve also added 2014-2015 calendar add-ons for those of you who don’t want to sit and hand write in all of the months. There are even a few additional covers included as well! The calendar and covers match the rest of my newly updated planner and are available in both colors and black-and-white.
Here is a little preview of what’s inside the TPT full planner packet!
I love syncing my iPad and iPhone calendar with my laptop so that all my important appointments and meetings go with me everywhere automatically!
My favorite organizing tool is probably a good, old fashioned paper calendar!
I love the good old paper planner and calendar.
I love my planner! I cannot go without a paper planner. My fiance keeps trying to get me to convert to using a digital one, but there’s something nice about having it all written down! Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
A planner!
love this planner. I love all of your materials and organizational tools. They keep me organized (as much as I can be). Thank you so much!
My favorite organizational tool would have to be an impeccable memory. Unfortunately I’m not naturally gifted in this area so I make accommodations for myself ��. I rely greatly on a series of calendars. I of course have digital ones because they sync and I can set it to alert me which is great. The problem with that is I don’t want to whip out my phone (because I don’t carry my laptop or I pad everywhere I go) when I need to add something on the fly. In the school setting every moment is a possible meeting time. Teachers you see in hallways always stop to chat about students and usually scheduling conversations arise. This is where my paper calendar comes in handy. I can jot down meeting times and schedule things around other meetings without worrying that my principal is going to walk by and think I’m playing on my phone. Your planner designs look awesome. I love the vibrant colors; this is another tool I use to keep things in my memory, pretty designs and colors help me recall notes!
Paper planner. I use Excel to keep track of IEP’s and eval’s due, but I still use my paper planner. Your planner is a great tool that I could carry to and from all my schools.
I currently use my calendar on my iPhone synced to my google calendar.
Very cute planner!
Looks really cute! I use my Outlook Calendar for my calendar since I can use that 1 thing at both schools, and it’s 1 less thing I have to remember to put in my bag. For planning, I use a monthly calendar at calendarsthatwork.com; that is, when I write it down!
Iphone calendar and monthly paper planner – but I would love to have just one place for everything work-related like yours.
Planners, labels, Out of Milk app…I use all kinds of things:-)
Papers & a binder – kind of old school but it works 🙂
I still like to use a paper planner/calendar and desk calendar so I can see everything right away when I walk into my office!
My Erin Condren planner and good ole pad of paper to do lists.
I love the referral list page. It’s so simple yet so important!
I use google calendar on my computer and my phone to schedule events for work and home, but I need a binder to organize all of the checklists, referrals, screenings, etc… Your planner looks great!
I use iCal syncing with Google and outlook to coordinate meetings and reminders. Trying to use google forms to track therapy notes with some success. But I need a binder to put all the referrals, notes, RtI, screenings, parent contacts, checklists together.
Love your planner. Thanks for taking the time to explain each page. I am in love with the progress report page, I know it will save me a ton of time. I am interested to hear/see more about your lesson plans using themes. Happy planning!
I have a paper planner for school and Google calendar for personal.
