User questions & answers

Question: would this be good for an 8 year old with down syndrome
Answer: Hello! Thank you for your question. The Phoenix Journal's biggest advantage over the other two is it's focus on helping you get clear on your big life vision which is then broken down into actionable 12 week goals. The Phoenix Journal helps you keep the big picture in mind and brings your family, health, and recreation into perspective so that you can make the most out of life. It also reinforces a positive mindset on a daily basis with questions that inspire gratitude, courage, and reflection with a full daily page for notes and journaling. At Phoenix Planner, we don't just want to help you be more effective, but also more purposeful. When these two qualities meet you get a life well lived.
Question: Does this book include answers to questions
Answer: Hey there! The paper weight of The Phoenix Journal is 100 gsm. Thank you for asking!
Question: is there a grade 1 level book or no
Answer: To answer this question I am going to say yes and no. To explain, in the first pages of this "journal" you write your optimal future, which then breaks down into a 3 year vision and then12 week vision. As part of the 12 week vision you have 3 pages that is a calender view for the next three months and then it starts into the weekly "spreads". So yes there is a calender and monthly planning pages but they are not before each weekly spread. I hope this helped!
Question: Are there exercises that ask questions where we have to write in the answer? We need practice answering questions in complete sentences
Answer: Yes it does! The binding allows it to lie flat when opened to any page.
