    What a great idea! This can be used for so many subjects, not only home-schooling. you are so resourceful!

    Really great lens, thanks. Do you know specifically where I can find resources for a 7th Grade Geography mini office? If you do, email me!

    The mini-office is such a helpful resource for anyone homeschooling. If I had read this about 25 years ago, I most likely would have been convinced to home school. I give all homeschooling parents loads of credit for their dedication to teaching and I'm sure your kids will be well equipped for the world by graduation! Excellent..!

    This lens is an awesome resource! (5 stars) I have made several of these now and my kids love them. Thanks for all the great links! They were a big help!

    I just saw this lens (and some of your other ones) in a message of recommendation on my local homeschool group's mailing list. Very cool! I love this resource, too. Lensrolling to my Lesson Plans and Planners lens!

    These are fantastic - great resources mini offices - I can't wait to get started using these.

    This is an amazing resource. One my son's teachers introduced a mini office for their desk, and it was so helpful for him. I'll have to pass your lens along to her because your mini offices look more organized. I loved the photos - thanks for all the links and resources.

    Wonderful! I will print out many of the printables! What a resource! I want to make a mini office for second grade granddaughter. She loves to "work" and would so enjoy all the reminders! Thank you!

    Hi Jimmie! You always have great lenses and resources! I can't wait for you to see what I've been working on. Anyway, great work! I'm making one for me, and one for each kid, and maybe even hubby!

    Great lens!
    I never would have thought to use a lapbook for reference material.
    Thanks for sharing

    This is a great lens with tips not just for home schooling but any parent who supports their children's studies. I am thinking that we ought to create a mini-office for both our girls as it will definitely help them be more organised with their homework - this will undoubtedly help both of them, but particularly Lizzie who struggles with being "organised". She is mildly dyslexic so "organised" is a slightly alien concept to her, but she is working very hard at grasping it!

    WOW... the sparklebox link was the best for me personally....
  • Tipi Jan 28, 2009 @ 8:06 am | delete
    Home schooling is an every growing trend and having a mini office for the children was something a I did for my kids. It sure helped them to be more motivated and productive. Great lens!

    I bought the materials today and we've been printing off stuff...she seems really excited about making her math office...and hopefully will then want to continue and make them for other subjects. (can you tell me exactly how to put the file folders together?, we can't seem to figure that out)

    I never hear of Mini-offices! We are going to be busy making some! Thanks!

    Jasmine is in 6th grade this year but just hates math. I am going to have her build herself a math office in hopes this will help and inspire her. I can't wait to go check out the links you share here.

    This is an awesome lens! It's so nice to have all these resources in one place. It has inspired me to make another mini-office. :) Thanks!

    Thanks for linking to me, Jimmie! :) I also added your link to my post too - you've got lots of great resources here too! :)

    I was just browsing through your lensography last night and discovered the mini-office. I had seen stuff about it before but the title kind of through me off. I didn't think it would be so cool. Little did I know!!!

    You should visit Jolanthe's blog at http://homeschoolcreations.blogspot.com/search/label/mini%20office She has some pages she created for the mini-office.

    I also created a couple of other charts: the 12 tribes of Israel and the names of God from the O.T. I would like to share them, but I'm not tech-savvy enough to figure out how to get them from my computer to the internet.

    Sorry this is so long! I love, love, love this. You are so creative!

    Hi Jimmie! I made a mini office for both of my kids today. It was so fun and I'm sure it will be helpful.

    That's a great idea for kids. I would think it would help with their organizational skills as well. It's nice to see so much stuff to help kids learn with these days. I think I'd be a lot smarter today, if I had something like this as a kid. 5 stars for you.
  • Antidote Sep 10, 2008 @ 11:20 am | delete
    This is great! The interesting title caught my eye, and I wanted to see more! This is a great idea because all of the necessary information that they may need is right there in front of them, ready to be accessed!

    What a great idea! I wish I had this at my disposal while I was still teaching elementary school.

    Great lens, thanks Jimmie! I'll be adding this one to my favorites.

    I was looking for some sites about Mini Offices for Math to link to my lens when I ran across your wonderful lens. The work you do is always inspiring. I have featured this page on my Hands-on Math Lens.
