The grid
Each week is one landscape page. Subjects run down the left side and the seven days run across the top, so the page is a grid with one cell for every subject on every day. Five subjects give five rows by seven columns, which is 35 cells. Every cell has room to write the assignment, and a small box in its corner to tick when it is done.
If you pick a start date, the seven day headings show the date as well, such as Mon 9/14. The dates count forward from your start date across month and year ends, and leap days are handled for you. With several weeks, each page starts seven days after the last one.
A weekly review takes only a few minutes. On the first day of each week, look at the grid, copy long assignments from last week that are not finished, and write any quizzes or tests in the cells where they fall. At the end of the week, count the done boxes and see which subjects slipped.
Planning homework well
Write assignments on the day you get them and mark the due date in the cell where you plan to finish. Larger projects can be split into steps spread over several days. For the hours a week of homework takes, use the Homework Time Calculator. The Assignment Tracker keeps due dates and scores, and the Printable Weekly Planner covers the rest of your week.
Everything is made in your browser. The subjects stay on your device, and only if you tick the remember box.
