Plan the year with confidence

Year Planner & Scope and Sequence

Set your students, subjects, and a start date, and you get a dated, week-by-week plan you can actually run the year on. Every topic becomes a unit you check off, with what to teach it with, what mastery looks like, and a hands-on activity. Track your progress all year, see what is due this week, and print it for the binder.

A typical sequence, not a mandate. This is a common starting point drawn from widely used frameworks like the Common Core and NGSS. Homeschooling lets you set the pace, so adapt it freely to your child. Your choices are saved in this browser, never uploaded to us. Check your state law guide for any required subjects.

This is a common, typical scope and sequence drawn from widely used frameworks, laid out as a starting roadmap. It is not a standard or a mandate, so set your own pace and adjust freely. Sources: Math: This is a typical, widely-used math sequence grounded in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics for grades 7-8 and the common US high school course progression for grades 9-12 (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Precalculus, with Statistics offered as a common grade 12 alternative); Language Arts: This is a typical, widely-used scope and sequence grounded in the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for English Language Arts; Science: This is a typical, widely-used scope and sequence; Social Studies: This is a typical, widely-used US social studies sequence for grades 7-12, organized around the common course pattern most public schools and curriculum publishers follow (Grade 7 world geography/early world history, Grade 8 US history to 1877, Grade 9-10 world history, Grade 11 US history since Reconstruction, Grade 12 government and economics) and threaded through the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) ten themes: Culture; Time, Continuity, and Change; People, Places, and Environments; Individual Development and Identity; Individuals, Groups, and Institutions; Power, Authority, and Governance; Production, Distribution, and Consumption; Science, Technology, and Society; Global Connections; and Civic Ideals and Practices.
