Paper · a pen · seven rows

The week, on the fridge, in your own handwriting

Set a handful of parameters and print a skeleton: one week, seven days top to bottom, every day the same height. Then it is paper. No app to open, no account, nothing to sync, nothing that runs out of battery on a Tuesday.

How it works

Three minutes once, then a pen for the rest of the term

01

Give everyone a mark

One to six people. Each picks a symbol — the cat, the rocket, the flower — or takes their initials instead. A house stands for the whole household. Pre-readers find themselves by the picture, and the grown-ups can be letters on the same sheet.

02

Print twenty at a time

Leave the dates blank and print a term's worth in one go, or set a week and get the week number, the range and each day's date printed. Same layout either way. Black on whatever paper is in the tray.

  • A4
  • Letter
  • 1–25 copies
  • Mono

03

Circle a mark, write the thing

Every writing line starts with the whole household's marks. Circle one and the line belongs to that person; circle the house and it belongs to everyone. Any line can be anyone's, so a busy Thursday does not overflow a fixed box.

What you set

Nine choices, and the layout does the arithmetic

Fridgeweek never shrinks a line behind your back. If a configuration will not fit on the paper, it says so and tells you exactly what to change.

  • People1 to 6
  • Marksa symbol or initials, each
  • Lines per day1 to 4, default 3
  • Family markhouse, on by default
  • Headerweek no. · range · legend
  • Week startingblank, or a date
  • Weekendsoutline or plain
  • PaperA4 or Letter · 5 to 20 mm
  • Language15, and Intl for the rest

Circle the mark, write the thing, cross it out when it is done. Print one on Sunday evening, or twenty at the start of term.
