Homeschool Supplies

Are you wondering what supplies do you need for homeschooling? Although some supplies vary based on what curriculum you are using, and some are similar to that of public school children, there are some supplies you may forget to pick up that you will want to have on hand for going back to school as a homeschooler. So, don’t miss shopping for these homeschool supplies!

When to Buy Back to Homeschool Supplies

  • Buy curriculum early (late sprint/early summer) or at conventions for the best deals (free shipping and convention pricing)
  • Buy supplies like crayons, notebooks, etc. in early September when stores clearance out  the back to school supplies and you’ll save 5o-90%
  • Buy learning games and manipulatives as you need them or they go on sale. We buy most of ours on Amazon where we’ve found the best prices

Homeschool School Supplies

I highly suggest getting your crayons, pencils, and glue at the back to school clearance sales [Items noted below in blue]. Everything else is usually cheaper (and more convenient) to buy online from Amazon. I’ve provided links so you can just fill your cart and be good to go!

  1. Bible
  2. Globe (we like this hands on one we can toss and play with too) plus our US Wall Map and World Wall Map
  3. Planner (we use this free one)
  4. 3 Hole Punch
  5. Laminator
  6. Page Protectors (to make worksheets reusable and to keep printable games together)
  7. Dry Erase Markers
  8. personal size dry erase boards (we use these for solving math equations, spelling tests, and lots of other things!)
  9. electric pencil sharpener (trust me you’ll be glad you aren’t using a small hand one!)

  11. Stapler
