We are definitely eclectic homeschoolers. In other words…we use whatever method works. And sometimes different times, different kids, different subjects call for different methods. Overall I love literature based, hands-on methods. But sometimes I need to use worksheets to practice a particular skill or to cover a new skill. Because we don’t have many standard textbooks, I have to hunt and hunt to find worksheets when I need them. So I was really excited to be able to review Super Teacher Worksheets for the Schoolhouse Review Crew. We received a one year Individual Membership for our review.
Super Teacher Worksheets is an online site. To use the worksheets, you’ll need a computer that can get online and a printer. The worksheets are all PDF files that can be printed. Although the site seems to be primarily geared toward classroom teachers, there is plenty here that homeschool families will love. Most of the worksheets are for kindergarten through middle school levels, and there are lots of teacher resources available as well. The Individual Membership is typically $19.95 for the year.

Once you choose the type of worksheet you want, you’ll see individual worksheets listed with a description and a grade range suggested. Icons under the worksheet listing allow you to know which Common Core standards are met with that sheet, know what languages the sheet is available in, have an overview of the sheet, or save the sheet to your personal file cabinet.
Another category of worksheets I’ve found that are actually useful even for my older kids is the puzzle category. There are fun logic puzzles and riddles and more. Even my older kids love puzzles and riddles and often will ask me to find some to print out on a slow day. This category of Super Teacher Worksheets lets me very easily find some to print!
In the Social Studies category, there are quite a few worksheets about American history. I’m doing American history with my younger girls this year, and I found some printable State Report worksheets that I want to use with them later in the year.
The Teaching Tools category is filled with resources like a simple lesson planner and gradebook, kids’ assignment sheets, calendars, and students awards. These are the kind of thing I’d spend hours searching for when I need to print them. And here I can find them all in one place easily.
There are even printable papers- basic lined paper, handwriting paper, and even graph paper. How many times have the kids needed graph paper, and we discovered we didn’t have it? I can even print graph paper!
One of my favorite parts of the Super Teacher Worksheets site is the Worksheet Generator. In this section I can make my own worksheets for things like math speed drills. I’ve been trying to use speed drills with the younger girls to help them become quicker with basic math facts. This worksheet generator lets me make addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division speed drill sheets. I can also make puzzles with the generator. This lets me whip up a word search with our current science vocabulary or a crossword puzzle with history terms. I can also make up quizzes or flashcards with the generator.
A very nice feature of Super Teacher Worksheets is My Filing Cabinet. This allows me to find worksheets that I want to use and save them. This is a real time saver because I can take time when I’m planning and save sheets that interest me to use later. Then when I’m in the midst of school and think of a worksheet that we need, I’ll have it saved in the filing cabinet.
Although many of the worksheets here are recommended for K-middle school, there are definitely worksheets that I’ve ended up finding for the older age group as well. I mentioned the puzzle worksheets above. I also went on the lookout for reading comprehension worksheets that Charles (9th grade) could use. I found a good variety of worksheets that can be used to build reading comprehension, and they are good for all ages.
Super Teacher Worksheets really is a great resource. Even a non traditional workbook/textbook homeschooler like me can find so many useful printables here.
