Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.

As a homeschooling family, we occasionally need a little extra work in certain areas or even just some busy work. One of my favorite websites to turn to in times like that is Super Teacher Worksheets. Through this website, we can print a variety of worksheets for the whole family!  I have been using this website since my oldest, who has now graduated, was little.  

At a quick glance, I can easily see that worksheets are provided for math, reading comprehension, writing, phonics, grammar, spelling, literacy units, science, social studies, brain teasers, and more. This barely touches the surface of the vastness of the website, though. The more I looked for worksheets, the more I found! There is even a huge section for foreign language worksheets! It would take all day to tell you about the many things included in a membership, so I will tell you about the top ones on my list.

My favorite aspect of this program is the Worksheet Generator. This is as awesome as it sounds! All I have to do is select the type of worksheet I’d like, from addition problems to classroom Bingo, to word searches. Then I adjust any settings and instantly I have a brand new worksheet for my kids! This is great, especially for when I have a student struggling with a particular concept. The generator can also help create quizzes and tests with ease!  My co-op students love it when I make a word search with all of their names in it and then they have to find everyone.  

In addition to just busy work and learning enhancement, Super Teacher Worksheets offers worksheets for holidays, special events, and topic studies, too.  

I have been using the worksheets often with our local homeschool co-op and the kids are always excited when they see what new ones I have for them each week.  I’ll be teaching science this year and I’ve already made quite the lesson plans just using the wonderful worksheets available.  We will be focussing on Space and Weather, both of which have plenty of worksheets available.  

For more information and to browse to see what is available, you can visit the Super Teacher Worksheets website.  You can also find out more on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.

Although there are some worksheets available for free, you can also purchase a subscription to have access to far more worksheets and the generator. A year subscription to Super Teacher Worksheets is only $24.95. In my opinion, and with this variety of worksheets at your fingertips, it’s well worth the investment.

This summer we took a break from school for the most part, but we added in the 12-month Family Membership from CTCMath as an adaptive online math curriculum to keep the kids learning a bit through the summer.

About the Program:

CTCMath is a complete math curriculum for students ages K-12.  There are video tutorials to watch and then lessons to complete afterward.  Each tutorial is between 4-9 minutes long.  There is a tab to watch the video for each lesson.

After the tutorial, the student will click the Questions tab.  On this tab, there are interactive questions which are scored and available for the teacher to view. You can also see if there are worksheets or study sheets to print.  CTCMath is self-paced so students can return and repeat whatever lessons they need more work on before moving forward.

Once they have finished that, the program moves right along into the next topic.  With a 12-month family membership, members receive access to all grades!  This includes Kindergarten through 6th grade math, followed by Basic Math and Pre-Algebra, Elementary Measurement, Elementary Geometry, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus.  A bonus to the program is that you pay one rate and then have access for up to five students.  As homeschoolers, this is huge to just pay one price for your children!  Plus if I know my child is struggling in a topic that was discussed in a previous year, we can click on that grade and then right on the topic to refresh.

Throughout the year, you receive progress reports via email that show where your child is at in the program.  I can also log in to see results at anytime.

Our Thoughts:

My kids spent most of their time this summer working on the speed drills and challenges, but also did a few lessons.  There are fun games that they enjoyed using to practice their math facts.  My rising 6th grader liked the lessons and how things were explained, however my rising 1st grader was not a big fan of doing math online.  I think as he gets older, he will like the program a little better.  He’s more of a hands-on kid.

As a mom, I find this program to be a great way to learn from home and I plan to continue working with my kids using the tutorials and games to reinforce what we are learning.  I found the website to be very easy to navigate and pretty self-explanatory to move between sections.

Although we haven’t officially used the high school courses, I did spend some time watching some of the videos and checking out the work.  From what I have seen, I think it would be a great option for high school, especially for self-motivated students.

Many thanks to Pure Flix for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are  100% my own. 

Pure Flix has a great new show that shows what happens behind the scenes at an early morning radio show? Check out the new sitcom Live+Local. 

Synopsis:

Starring executive producer Dave Coulier and Emily Pendergast, get an inside look at the Christian local radio station K-HUGG.

Our Thoughts:

The first thing I noticed about this show is that is stars Dave Coulier from Full House and Fuller House!  If you don’t know who that is, he’s the actor behind Joey Gladstone!  

I’ve been watching up to episode six, currently.  We’ve enjoyed the fun quirky comments and “news” from the Bible.

My husband and I watched this together.  We laughed and we cried as we watched the family dynamics and could relate with our family.  We also have 3 strong daughters (and 2 sons as well!).  It was a beautiful inspirational movie and very well done.

Here’s another fun thinking game from our friends at Timberdoodle.  This time, we were sent Quixo!  Quixo is a great game that constantly changes.  Think of tic-tac-toe with a much more complex process.  With Quixo, you start with all cubes on the blank side.  From there, you can play as either 2 players or 4 players.  When you play with 2 players, you pick any block from an edge, turn it to your shape, and then slide it back in another place.  It cannot go back where it came from, so this board is constantly changing.  Once you have 5 in a row, you win!

With 4 players, it gets a little more complicated as only the person that the dot on each piece is facing can remove that piece.  I love stratgy games and this one was a lot of fun!  Quixo comes with a little storage bag  so it is easy to play on the go.  

You can find this game for $37.99 on Timberdoodle.  It’s is also part of the 4th Grade Curriculum Kit that Timberdoodle has put together.

Walmart has a variety of backpacks available at great prices.  One worth mentioning is these Eastsport Deluxe Backpack with Lunchbox for just $19.99!  There are 8 styles at this price!

There are other great backpacks available on walmart.com, too!
