Each file covers a single month, which is what makes these different from a year overview: every day gets a box big enough to actually write in. Appointments, deadlines, shifts and reminders sit where you can read them at arm's length, and the weeks either side of the one you are in stay visible without the rest of the year competing for the space.
Whether you need a monthly calendar for work, a study schedule, a content calendar, a habit tracker or somewhere to keep the family's appointments in August 2017 straight, these blank pages give you a starting point rather than a system to learn. While our weekly calendars suit detailed day-by-day planning, a month to a page is the level at which deadlines, rotas and commitments become comparable — close enough to see the detail, wide enough to spot what is coming.
Each calendar is an .xlsx file that opens in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets and LibreOffice Calc, so you can type straight into the day cells and shade whole runs of days in your own colors. Change it as often as the month changes, and print it on US Letter paper whenever you want the current version on the wall.
Federal holidays and long weekends in August 2017
No federal holiday falls in August 2017, so nothing on these templates is marked out: the month is 23 weekdays and 8 weekend days, start to finish. The last holiday was Independence Day on Tuesday, July 4, and the next is Labor Day on Monday, September 4, in the first days of September.Ways to use a monthly calendar template
- Business and professional planning
Map out meetings, deadlines and active projects for August 2017, or use the page as a shift schedule, staff absence tracker or timesheet. A single month is short enough that a whole team can work from one printed copy without it going out of date. - Personal and family organization
Keep appointments, birthdays, school runs and household jobs in one place, and put the month up where everyone can see it. Fill in what you already know about August at the start of it and add the rest as it arrives. - Travel and vacation planning
Block out the days you are away in August, then fit flights, accommodation and connections around them. The month view also works well for a wedding, a house move or anything else with a run-up rather than a single date. - Academic and school scheduling
Lay out study sessions, homework deadlines, exam dates and reading, and see at a glance which weeks of August are heavy before they arrive. - Text and colors are yours to change
Every entry you type and every color you apply can be changed as often as you like, from the notes inside each day to the shading on weekends and holidays. The files are macro-free, so nothing runs when you open them, and you can save a separate copy for each team member or family member and share it without anyone touching your own version. Keep yours on screen, or print it and pin it up where you will actually look at it.
