Many moms I know will take their workbooks to Office Depot, have them unbound and then put each page into protective covers. This allows multiple children to use the same workbook. I have always liked this idea, but was too lazy to go to the store and then put 300 + sheets in protectors.<\/p>\n<p>My friend discovered a way to simplify and reuse. She cuts a slit in one page protector and then slides that protector over the page her child is using. The child can then &#8220;write in the book&#8221; using a dry erase marker. The child writes in one color and the mom corrects in another. The next day the sheet is cleaned off and moved to the next page! Brilliant! I plan on using this with our Wordly Wise and Easy Grammar workbooks this year. With 6 kids this will save our homeschool a significant amount of money on curriculum.<br \/>\n<a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/s533.photobucket.com\/albums\/ee336\/anderbach\/?action=view&amp;current=100_1003.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i533.photobucket.com\/albums\/ee336\/anderbach\/100_1003.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/s533.photobucket.com\/albums\/ee336\/anderbach\/?action=view&amp;current=100_1002.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i533.photobucket.com\/albums\/ee336\/anderbach\/100_1002.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" width=\"435\" height=\"290\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As I was typing this I realized that this page protector would also work great in the kitchen.
