My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping - Annual Membership Review

Trying to stay organized while homeschooling can be difficult for almost anyone.  We had a chance to review My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping - Annual Membership to try and keep me organized.  It has taken my planning and recording keeping to a whole new level.

I started out homeschooling and when doing one it's crazy enough.  But to track multiple kids...holy cow it's hard.  I started using notebooks ten years ago, but those get lost.  I used files on my laptop that I would create, then lost the files when my computer died (forgot about back up of things like that), and now I have been introduced to My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping.  What a life saver this will be!

When you start, you will create an account and add your students.  You will need to add your students that you are tracking.  And then each subject/class they are taking.

You can add the assignments once you have "created" the class.

My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping also keeps tracks of awards that your student receives during the year.  This would have been helpful for me the last few years.  I always forget by assessment time all the various activities (or I lose that notebook) of the awards and activities that the kids have participated in.  It's inevitable that I know that I miss something.

Have trouble keeping track of your calendar....My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping has you covered there also.  They have a calendar where you can track your kids activities, field trips, class times, etc.  You can color code so that you can keep student's separated.

My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping doesn't leave you in the dark.  They have several videos to help parents make sure they are taking advantage of all the resources that it has to offer.

My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping provides great reminders while using their program.  I get weekly emails to make sure that I remember all the resources that I have available at my finger tips.

It was a little time consuming getting started with My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping.  But that is because I was starting from the very beginning with 3 kids information to be input.  Once you have all the initial information put into the program, the rest is a piece of cake.  It is very user friendly program and they want to make sure that you feel comfortable while using My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping.  And between the tutorials and the weekly reminder emails, they can put your mind at ease that you are organized in your homeschooling!!

When you need information, it's all at your fingertips.  Need a list of assignments your son or daughter has completed in math, there's a transcript for that.  You need to track grades for your state, you have that.  You need a list of awards or volunteer positions your student has held for a scholarship application, you have that information also.  My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping really has everything covered for you, including a high school transcript if you need that also.  This would be a great program to use for all ages, but especially for those middle to high school years as you prepare your student for College-Credit Plus and post high school college studies!!

There is a little work that can be done weekly.  As you check over your kid's schoolwork, you check off the assignments they have completed.  Add grades.  You also need to add volunteer hours and positions.  So all the work isn't done for you completely.  But it is very easy to input, and you can add it when you are ready.  So if you want to spend just an hour a month adding all that information, then do it then.  Or you can track it weekly or daily depending on your schedule.

Once I got the initial information input into My School Year Homeschool Record Keeping, I was ready to go.  I like that I am able to track their extra curricular along with their school assignments easily.  This helps to keep Lydia's zoo, sports, and riding schedule in mind while I am planning her school assignments.  It makes it feel less overwhelming.  I'm going to continue using it for Brayden, as I am also inputing materials that he already completed his freshman through junior year.  It will keep all his information at my fingertips as he prepares for graduation this upcoming summer.  Since I am able to track all of Lydia's "extras", this will help me as she prepares for possible college during high school, since we'll be starting to fill out that paperwork in the next couple years.  At least all the information I am going to need will be found easily with a few clicks of the mouse because of My School year Homeschool Record Keeping.

Super Teacher Worksheets - Individual Membership Review

Are you needing some help with practice sheets or just keeping up with a child who LOVES to learn?  We recently reviewed the Individual Membership ($19.95) from Super Teacher Worksheets.  This has been a great benefit to our homeschool planning!!!

Ok...I admit it.  I was a geek in school.  I didn't mind the work, for the most part.  I loved worksheets and busy work.  I actually have a couple kids that enjoy worksheets, and I'm always looking for materials that are easy to print and search through to save me time and give them busywork.  
Super Teacher Worksheets- Individual Membership provides parents and teachers with worksheet and activity help for a wide variety of subjects including math, science, language arts, phonics, reading comprehension, health, geography, brain teasers, printable games, and even provides a worksheet generator.  It has been created for Grades PK - 8.

This isn't the first time that we have had the opportunity to use Super Teacher Worksheets.  We have been active subscribers to this site for a few years now.  When dealing with multiple grade levels and so many different learning delays, I was struggling with finding help and curriculum in specific areas.  

The boys math has been one area and Super Teacher Worksheets has really helped me out in their lessons.  Instead of buying multiple math books, at a high cost, I have been able to print various worksheets that allow them to practice mastery in specific areas of concern.  As they master each grade level, I just print the next harder worksheets for this area of study.  1-2-3...my planning is done and the boys are happy.

Another area that I love about Super Teacher Worksheets, their seasonal printouts.  They gather all their seasonal items into a file that you can browse by subject and easily see recommended grade level also.

Recently we celebrated the first week of Fall by doing a daily fall math sheet and reading comprehension activity.  I was able to print individual sheets for the kids to use at their own levels, and it gave them a break from the same-old-stuff.

Using Super Teacher Worksheets website is super easy.  When we need practice material, I can either search through the subject area or there is a search bar option also.

You just click View PDF of the file that you want.  

Unlike other websites, the Individual Membership from Super Teacher Worksheets - Individual Membership does not restrict  you to a certain amount of worksheets each month.  You have unlimited downloads for your family to use and print out.

Lydia is using a pretty specific math program this year.  Recently she needed some extra practice on factors and fractions.  She went through all the options on her program and then I checked out Super Teacher Worksheets to find some worksheets that allowed her that practice that she needed.  She gained more confidence and passed her test with no problem.

This year instead of buying a special spelling curriculum for Caty, who is starting spelling a bit late due to her reading delay, I decided to try the weekly spelling program that is offered on Super Teacher Worksheets - Individual Membership.  

I wasn't sure how she would do.  But so far it has been excellent.  I pick and choose what worksheets she will be doing each week.  Some weeks she needs extra writing practice, while others I print the fun word searches.  I like the long/short vowel worksheets that forces her to split the words down and remember the spelling.

All the worksheets and booklets that we have used so far have been easy to search for and print.  They provide the right amount of practice for each student.  I also can choose to print an answer page if I need it for quicker grading or if I just need to verify that I am helping them in the right way for an answer (hey I will admit that I struggle with some language arts areas...like supporting details).


An Individual Membership does not restrict you to specific levels, so it's perfect for Homeschool parents who have several different grade levels to plan out for.

Every time I think that I have possibly used a little bit of every resource they have to offer, I am shocked and find something else that I can use.  Super Teacher Worksheets - Individual Membership is one of my most used resources in our homeschool.  

I will continue to use the Super Teacher Worksheets materials as long as I can and highly recommend their resources to any homeschool families that are looking for some ways to save time and money.  If I added up the cost of the pages I have used just in the past couple months by comparing them to workbooks I would have had to purchase, Super Teacher Worksheets really will save you money.
