What do you like about this product?
I liked the fact it offers several different types of calendars. I can print it off, use it on my computer, print off one month at a time or two. The charts offered are fantastic. It's like having Microsoft Works but in special needs form. An organizational tool for every situation from medications to outings to doctors and everything in between.

What do you dislike about this product?
I found it difficult to figure out which calendar did what at first. I had to scroll through and decipher what we wanted. It was difficult to find where I left off, I had to use the 'find' tool until I figured out to bookmark a PDF.

Your Review
We're not planners. However this year in our homeschooling we have moved to a different approach as he's grown older. I needed something to help with my planning. The TOS Special Needs Planner is more than a calendar. It offers items specific for special needs and specific for homeschooling. It is jam packed full of helpful articles (often linked to the author's website so you can get more information!) including GCFC recipes, charts for every occasion, and more. The charts are my favourite part. Chore charts with pictures, life skills charts with pictures like brushing teeth, washing hair, and going to the bathroom. Homeschool forms: IEP, assignment sheets, spiral learning records, ideas for hands-on learning, forms to give to your co-op to help their understanding and inform them about allergies and medications, evaluations and assessments, and even help with understanding standardized testing results.
Organizational forms: Four different options of goal lists, different types of schedule forms, and medical forms. The medical forms are varied from lists of physicians to doctors, an easy to fill out form for basic medical history, and much much more. There are so many lists and forms to help organize your records in order to give everyone the same information and not forget anything that I am in organization heaven!
I highly recommend getting the TOS Special Needs Planner. It is more than worth it's cost, especially for someone like me who has binders and binders full of information that needs to be condensed and easily accessible!
