[Pages:2]Homeschool Worksheets

There are many benefits to be gained from using homeschool worksheets with your children. They can easily satisfy the specific needs or requirements for your child or you, the parent-teacher.

They can provide enrichment if you need to supplement the assignments included in the core curriculum. Sometimes a child becomes really engrossed in a topic and wants to dig beyond what is presented in the textbook. In this case, an extra printable could give him additional information or activities to complete.

They can be used for remedial instruction if a child needs additional lessons. This commonly occurs in math lessons when a child may need extra practice pages. Occasionally, a child may need to have the material presented using an alternate method than what is shown in the textbook to help him "see it."

Homeschool worksheets can also be used as rewards or just for fun! They can provide enjoyable yet constructive "breaks" from a rigorous course of study. We have spent many afternoons completing word searches, crossword puzzles, and other types of activities, after finishing a unit.

Finding Them on the Internet

A definite plus of using worksheets is that they are easily available from the Internet or you can create your own. Best of all, most of them are free or available for a small membership fee to some sites. Basically, though your only expense is using your own ink and paper to print these resources.

Some options for finding these resources on the Internet include:

Check for freebies on your favorite websites Search on for specific subject areas such as math or

science worksheets Go to curriculum publishers and see if they have worksheets Find worksheet generators and input some information to create a

custom worksheet Suggested Uses
