Start with the resource that matches today’s pressure point.

How to use a free planning guide

Choose the guide that matches the decision creating the most pressure today. Use it to define one priority, test one support, and decide what evidence would help at the next review. Avoid downloading every resource at once. A small tool used consistently is more valuable than a large collection that adds to family overwhelm.

These free guides are focused versions of tools found in Homeschool Momentum. Membership contains the complete worksheets, worked examples, guided pathways, and ongoing action-planning system.

Which free homeschool tool should you choose?

Start with the Quick-Start Map if you are new to homeschooling a child with special needs or need to reset a difficult season. Use the Program Fit Scorecard before buying curriculum, enrolling in an online program, or changing learning platforms. Choose the Minimum Viable Homeschool Day when attention, energy, behavior, or family capacity makes a full schedule unrealistic. Use the withdrawal checklist before leaving a public or private school so you can preserve useful records and separate family planning questions from questions that require an official state or district source.

Your family’s privacy comes first

The current tools can be downloaded without entering child information. If optional email delivery is added later, it will request parent contact information and the selected resource only. Parents should never send a child’s diagnosis, IEP, school record, medical details, or schoolwork through a marketing form or ordinary email.
