Planning & Schedules
Homeschooling families need to incorporate kids and education into everything we do. A homeschooling life is one that can require that you attend to many things at the same time; academics, classes, sports, meals, cleaning, administration, child care, etc. Doing that well, often requires some planning. Here are some tools that may help you get started. None of the tools here will work perfectly for your unique family. You will likely need to tweak them to fit your unique family or simply use them as inspiration for creating your own systems.
We've created a series of planning and scheduling tools to make homeschooling easier. Visit our Teachers-Pay-Teachers page for a complete list of resources. You'll find yearly planners, learning summaries, activity schedulers, funds planners, goal setting worksheets, and much more.
K-8 Standards Checklist
Apples and Bananas has lots of great educational resources on their Teachers-Pay-Teachers store. Their California Educational Standards checklist is particularly useful for homeschool families wanting to keep track of standards. These checklist are great for meetings with charter school teachers, for siting which standards you've covered and your child's understanding of the topic.
