Free General Homeschool Resources
TGHomeSoft offers their Basic version of Homeschool Tracker for free. This is a really great recordkeeping program. I began using the free version when it first came out in 2003, and I couldn't believe how much you could do with it.
With the free version, you can keep track of attendance and hours, manage assignments (there are copy and reschedule features), keep track of your resources, create reading logs, schedule field trips, and create several reports (field trips, student overviews, reading logs, report cards, resources used, teacher's planner and time spent). You can also set up templates for frequently-used assignments. If you aren't much of a scheduler, or if you schedule some subjects but prefer a journal type approach for others, the basic version also includes a teacher's journal.
You can view screenshots of the Basic edition and download the program and user manual here. I have since upgraded to the Plus version of this program, which offers some really great features and is constantly being updated (all updates are free - it is a one-time purchase). I used the basic edition for 2 years, though, and I loved it! It is a great program, and you can't beat the price!

I also love that this program will keep attendance, book lists, and Field trips. I love to print off these reports, along with the overview page to make a quick and professional looking portfolio. I also add some of the best samples of work to a duotang folder. Love this program!

I can't say enough good about HomeSchool Tracker! I got the free version and upgraded to the Plus after a week. :) This week in fact, I'm plugging in all of our Year 1 TOG assignments into the Lesson Planner. I can't wait to see the whole thing in action. I love it! It will definitely beat writing and rewriting in a paper teacher's planner.
