Daily homeschool hours log
Print one page per week (landscape works best), or save it as a PDF. Write minutes in each box, total each day, and keep the pages with your portfolio. The online Hours log does the adding for you and tracks progress toward a state target.

Tip: 60 minutes = 1 hour. Some states set a yearly minimum, for example Wisconsin (875 hours a year) and Missouri (1,000 hours a year, at least 600 in reading, language arts, math, social studies and science). Rules vary and change, so check your state’s current law: lifeacademyhomeschool.org/homeschool/. This log is a record-keeping aid, not legal advice. Parents keep and sign their own homeschool records.
