Product Review of SchoolhouseTeachers.com
Did you know that you can get a Yearly Membership to SchoolhouseTeachers.com? We haven’t used all of the courses that are offered yet, but I would like to tell you about some that we are presently using so that you can get an idea of what it is like and see if you would like to try it with your children.

About SchoolhouseTeachers.com
SchoolhouseTeachers.com is a homeschool curriculum site that has over 360 courses in a variety of styles and formats for all ages and grade levels. They have grade level and scope and sequence suggestions so you can feel like you are doing all you can to teach your child for the year. You could either use it as the base of your curriculum or use it to fill in gaps that your other materials may not cover. This is not an online school with online teachers and does not align with the Common Core standards, which is what I personally love about it because I want to teach my own children and choose what I teach.
Yeah, it costs money, but what a bargain! The Yearly Membership can be used for your entire family for one low price: $179 US yearly. Presently, I have five children at the right ages to use it, so it’s a great deal for our family!
Using Google Chrome as our internet browser, our family gets to the website on a PC with Windows 10. Some courses include videos to watch. Some are printable items that you will want a printer for. I am a person who loves lists and schedules so I personally enjoy the record keeping and organizational tools on the site. You can even make and print a transcript!
How We Use It
Here are just some of the learning opportunities we use on the site.
Preschool Playground
This is a very fun learning area that my Preschool child, Mason uses. There are hundreds of activities in the Preschool Playground area to do. Plus, we still have things to do and learn in the grade level courses section for Preschool. I personally don’t do everything here (because there is just so much), but I love all the ideas it gives me. I often use them to prevent boredom and mischief and to give Mason something to do while I am teaching another child.
I hadn’t heard of this before, really interesting reading such an in depth review of it #wanderingwednesdays
