When you create your initial event you will see a box under the times marked “all day” or “repeat”. You also have the ability to set each event to repeat which I mentioned early. I am also able to share each event with the people I need to, which sometimes includes homeschool dad! Setting Events to Repeat I can choose the calendar I want for each event. I set the subject to repeat on the days that I need it too, then I am ready to edit from there. I schedule my calendars by subject so I simply input the subject at about the time we are working on it each day. Once you have your calendars set up you are now able to create your events. Scheduling Events (subjects, appointments, field trips) When creating the calendar for that student you are able to add their address and share that calendar with them. This is where having a student with a Gmail account would be useful. You have the ability to share specific calendars with other Google users as I mentioned before. You are able to name and customize color from there. Click on the down arrow and select “create a calendar”. To create a calendar you go to the left-hand side of the Calendar, and you will see where it says “My Calendars” beside that is a little down arrow. My calendars include Fieldtrips, 3rd Grader, Kindergarteners, Work From Home and Meals to name a few. Google can be set with different custom calendars. Once you’re in the Calendar screen you can start piecing together your lesson planner.
This is found in the right-hand corner of the screen. It would be helpful for an older student to have a Gmail account as well, to set up and sync assignments. To set it up you need to find the Calendar icon under your Google apps. One of the best features is that you can sync your calendar with other users. To use Google Calendar, you need a Gmail account. It takes a little playing around with to find all the features and get used to but it works so well. I love how well my Google Calendar works as a planner. Truthfully I didn’t want to pay for something each month that I wasn’t totally in love with. Although I really liked Homeschool Planet, I wasn’t in love with it. I have looked high and low for a system that would work for me as an online homeschool planner.
