Getting started with the CM Organizer

Here's how to get started with the CM Organizer—a simple yet powerful homeschool planner and record-keeper that's designed to flex with real life.

Set Up Your Account

Go to your Account Settings to get started. You'll want to add your students, set your school year start date, and set your time zone.

Schedule Your First Resource

Start by searching the Bookfinder for a resource. You can use the search box at the top, or click any of the tags to quickly jump to resources in a particular category.

Once you find the resource you want to use, click Schedule It.

Choose the student you want use this resource, pick a subject and study method, choose your start date, and select which days of the week you'll use this resource. When you're all set, click Add to Schedule.

Record Your Progress

On the Daily Plan tab, you'll see all of the assignments you've scheduled for today. The CM Organizer helps you focus on what's next by only showing what you need to get done right now. It automatically updates tomorrow's plan based on what you mark off today.

To record work for an assignment, simply click the checkbox next to that assignment. Click once to mark it as Worked On, or twice to mark it as Finished.

See What You've Accomplished

On the Reports tab, you can create a report for all the work you've recorded. Once you've marked off some assignments, choose a Progress Report and create a report to see how it works.
