Parent Guide: how to use the curriculum

Homeschool Education Academy is designed to be calm and easy: teach the skill on paper first, then reinforce it with on-screen practice so learning sticks and progress can be saved. This page gives you a simple routine you can repeat all year.

The method (paper → screen → progress)

Paper builds real writing and thinking. Screen reinforcement adds feedback, repetition, and saved progress.

1) Paper first

Teach & write

Read the objective together, model one example, and do the written work on paper. This is where children build the core skill.

2) On screen

Reinforce

Use the interactive activities to practice the same skill again with feedback. This strengthens accuracy and confidence.

3) Saved progress

Continue tomorrow

When progress is saved, your child can pick up where they left off. It also helps you see what’s mastered and what to review next.

Quick start (3 steps)

If you want the simplest plan, do this.

Step 1

Choose a grade

Start with 1st–6th grade. If your child is between grades, start where confidence feels strong.

Step 2

Pick a subject & skill

Select what you want to improve (reading, writing, math, and more), then focus on one skill at a time.

Step 3

Paper first, then screen

Teach and write on paper first, then complete the on-screen practice to reinforce the skill and save progress.

What’s inside a lesson

A consistent structure so teaching feels simple.

🎯 Objective

Clear goal

One main skill so you know exactly what your child is practicing.

📘 Teach

Parent steps

Simple instructions so you can explain the skill clearly and quickly.

🖨️ Paper

Printable practice

Clean practice pages designed for handwriting, showing work, and calm focus.

💻 Screen

Interactive reinforcement

On-screen activities with feedback and saved progress to support long-term learning.

A simple daily routine (20–30 minutes)

Short sessions done consistently are more effective than long sessions once in a while.

1) Warm-up (3–5 min)

Review yesterday’s skill or do one quick question together to build confidence.

2) Teach (5–8 min)

Read the objective and model one example. Keep it calm and simple.

3) Paper practice (8–12 min)

Complete the written work on paper. This is the core learning.

4) Screen reinforcement (5–8 min)

Do the on-screen practice to reinforce the same skill and save progress for next time.

How to choose the right starting point

Use grade as a simple guide — then adjust by confidence.

Start here

When unsure, start at grade

Choose the closest grade (1st–6th), then adjust based on how your child feels.

Move down

If it feels too hard

Drop one grade/level for that subject. Confidence first leads to faster progress.

Move up

If it feels too easy

Jump ahead one grade/level. Keep it challenging but not frustrating.

Tip: it’s normal to mix grades by subject (for example, math at one grade and reading at another).

Common questions

Quick answers to help you start confidently.

Should I start by grade or by skill level?

Start with grade for simplicity (1st–6th). If your child struggles or feels bored, move down or up based on confidence.

Do I teach on paper or on screen?

Both. Teach and write on paper first, then complete on-screen practice to reinforce the skill. On-screen work matters because it can save progress and help children continue where they left off.

How long should a daily session be?

20–30 minutes is plenty: warm-up, teach, paper practice, then on-screen reinforcement and a quick check.

What if my child is between grades?

Choose where confidence is strong and move forward. You can also mix grades by subject (math at one grade, reading at another).
