Evan-Moor has many quality resources that are ideal for homeschoolers! Planning a kindergarten homeschool curriculum, a homeschool math curriculum, homeschool writing curriculum, and curriculums covering art, science, and other engaging topics require thoughtful choices. We understand that the choices can be overwhelming, so we’ve created a brochure of “Homeschool Top Picks” to provide you a quick guide across subject areas.

Take a look at the Evan-Moor Homeschool BrochureOur brochure provides a quick overview of the kind of lessons and activities we offer for the mastery of basic skills. Find resources that make it easier for you to teach reading, writing, math, language skills, and social studies.

Three top recommendations:

Daily Paragraph Editing1. Daily Practice series: Our Daily Practice titles provide skills practice across grade levels and curriculum areas: language arts, reading, writing, vocabulary, math, science, and geography. These homeschool resources are paced for every day of the week, making lesson planning easy. Your child will feel a sense of accomplishment as he or she practices key skills in the brief daily lessons. At the end of the week, you will have a snapshot of the skills your child has mastered, and an understanding of which skills require additional practice. View all daily practice titles and get free samplers here.

Skill Sharpeners - Spell & Write2. Skill Sharpeners series: These full-color student activity books are perfect for enrichment for your child.

For a struggling student, you can use Skill Sharpeners below-grade level for independent or guided practice. See an overview of the Skill Sharpeners series here.
