Attendance record
A homeschool attendance record is a dated list of the days school happened, often with the hours, kept per child.
Some states ask families to keep or report attendance in days or hours; others do not. Many families keep one either way as the simplest evidence of a school year.
For the record you keep
Record on the day, write a reason for days without school, and keep a running total.
One record for any method
Lessons, the learning log and work samples all count toward attendance, hours and the year-end packet.
