Homeschool portfolio checklist

How to use it
- Check what your state or evaluator asks for first; this list is common practice, not a legal checklist.
- Date every work sample when it is made, and choose pieces that show change.
- Representative work is better than only the best work.
The same record, without the printer
Tick each lesson as you teach it in Homeschool Up, and attendance, hours and the year-end packet add themselves up.
