Can anyone tell me what age/grade levels are the Primary and Elementary planners appropriate for? Where are the breaks?

Thanks!

{I'm sorry to be so slack but this is the first time I've gotten to read this}

We bought these last year. I looked at the sample pages to try to figure out what would work best for each child. I didn't buy the primary one because I just didn't figure that a child from K-2 would actually USE it. At least not my kids...

FWIW,

P.S. Also, I wanted the ones to have a space to write each day's assignments per subject..

I think it depends what you want to use it for - the primary one has big writing lines, not subject boxes; elementary has boxes and no puzzles. We used the primary for a 6yo last year (would have been 1st grader). She didn't use it as a planner or for assignments, but each week has a puzzle or coloring based on the Gospel reading, and each day has something to discuss - journal, prayer, vocabulary, etc. This year K (now 7yo) wanted the elementary one, because she thought she had outgrown the primary (doesn't help that little sister is getting the primary now). The first week she wrote something in every subject box, like a journal to keep track of what she did that day. She lost interest pretty quickly, and now is pretty much using it the same as the primary, writing straight across all the lines.
