Here are three forms I’ve designed that you may find helpful in your record-keeping efforts. They can be used to help you track your children’s learning activities, as well as your own! You can click the link under each preview image, and then save the downloads to your computer. Feel free to print as many copies as you need.

Check back periodically, as I plan to continue adding forms. If there are any forms or templates that you would particularly like to see, just let me know!

Learning Record

The Learning Record is useful for tracking learning activities in several subject areas or resources on one page. I typically list about one week’s worth of activities, putting items for each different resource or subject in a separate box. (For example, I could list all of the week’s math lessons and games in the first box.) As we complete each item, I check it off and note the date. If we are working on an activity over several days, I list each date that it is worked on, and check it off when completed. Because we are fairly flexible in our lessons, I like a form that allows room for you to add in spontaneous items! The notes section also allows you to add extra activities, such as field trips or educational films, etc.

Reading Record

The Reading Record helps you keep a master list of all books, essays, etc, that you read. I personally love to look back over lists of books I’ve read in the past. I can chart my intellectual “progress” based on the books I was reading at any given point! Having a date is also helpful, because it helps you to remember the context of other events going on in your life at any given time. I’m often amazed to look back and realize that I’ve been interested in a particular topic for several years longer than I would have guessed.

Learning Resource Log

The Learning Resource Form allows you to track your progress through a given course, text, book, or other learning resource. You can initially list each lesson, chapter, or assignment in order. Then, check off and date the appropriate lessons as you complete them. This is a great form if you are a “box checker”, who is motivated by visualizing your progress through a course of study.

Do let me know of any suggestions for improvements, or if you have ideas for forms you would find useful – I do take requests!

And, as always, Enjoy!
