Free Homeschool Worksheets:
Printables For Homeschooling
Come and try our free homeschool worksheets and see our guide to the best free printable worksheets that have been recommended by other homeshool families.
You'll find the choice of free worksheets can be overwhelming and you can waste a lot of time looking. We decided the best way we can help is by using our own homeschooling experience of what actually works to make our own. This is an ongoing project for 2012; we're really enjoying making our free worksheets but it takes a little time and you'll need to pop back regularly to see what we've added!
One of the best ways you can help with English skills is to encourage your kids to start writing stories. Once you've planted the seed and writing becomes something your kids want to do all the other English skills will follow. So we decided that our very first free homeschool worksheets would be these story printables.
Click on each thumbnail and they will open in a new window as a free printable pdf.
You'll see lots more story ideas for all ages in our page on free writing worksheets. Invent your own Animal Ark story, meet an alien and tell us How To Keep Dinosaurs!
Homeschool Printables For Kids
Math
You'll see our homeschool math page picks out the TOP THREE math worksheets for homeschooling.
This first site, Enchanted Learning, was recommended by friends of mine when we first began homeschooling. It is a subscription site, but it has loads of free homeschool printables, kids crafts to make and worksheets for grades K through 3.
Try Busy Teachers Cafe for grades K-6 for free homeschool printables covering reading, writing, math, language arts (grammar and phonics) and Spanish. I thought the journal calendar activity worksheets offering creative writing prompts were interesting and might well tempt a reluctant writer.
Donna Young has lots of free homeschool worksheets, though Donna admits she's a bit haphazard in helping you find them! But they're worth tracking down, and you'll find some interesting ones which help with general homeschooling. If you like to make an organized homeschool planner you'll find planning pages and calendar printables, along with record keeping forms. I thought her nature journal printables might encourage your kids to keep track of the birds, trees and weather and would fit in really well with our free homeschooling curriculum for science.
LearningPage has free printables for kids. If you click on the basics gallery you'll see a few free printables on calendar, time, alaphabet etc but I've recommended it for the galleries at the bottom of the page with facts and kids printables on reptiles, dinosaurs, zoo animals etc.
Printable Worksheets from Kaboose. Younger age homeschool printables for kids on the world, animals, music, space,etc.
SuperTeacher has a large collection of math, reading, writing, phonics, spelling and grammar worksheets for kids. I also notice his free printables section had some great Christmas worksheets, crosswords and puzzles which would go really well with our free homeschool Christmas math activities.
Lesson Plans Page. Worth mentioning this one as site goes up the ages right through High School and has over 3,500 free lesson plans for all subjects, but you're going to have to look hard to find a lesson plan that fits your homeschool because many are more group-oriented and vary in quality.
Free Worksheets For Kids
I've already covered some great free homeschooling resources and I'm going to be looking at more free homeschooling worksheets and printables for kids because my list is getting too long to fit on one page!
I do think though, that every family is different and every child is different so free homeschool worksheets which are heaven for one will be hell for another. Which is why it would be great if you can suggest any that you like; that way everyone gets more chance to find ones that appeal to their kids!
