A couple of questions were posted in the comments to my previous post, so I thought I would answer them here:
We have a separate box next to the 'mailbox' for the bigger box 1 stuff. Sometimes, I'll just put a note in there for what they need to do.
Instructions are the same: Math 1 lesson; Reading 1 hr; writing 1 page; Vocab 10(4th grader) or 12(5th grader) words/week
We don't have "tests" - Math has to be 90% or better or they redo the entire lesson; writing they make corrections after I have reviewed; Reading - I talk to them most nights at dinner and sometimes find online tests; Vocab - Dad makes sure they know them all on Fri
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it. Matthew 13:44-46

This looks a lot like what I am planning with my boys. So, I am guessing you refill their boxes/cards each night. I am just starting back ft outside the home w/Dad working from home to be with the boys. It is a bit scary, but I think this will really help keep us all on track. Thanks for sharing your method.
