Homeschool portfolio and year-end evaluation
Collect work samples by subject as the year goes, keep the reading list by title, record test results, and print a cover sheet and an evaluator letter at the end. Set up for what Pennsylvania and Florida ask a portfolio to hold. If your child makes projects on our platform, they can show them on a live portfolio page too.
Their projects can be the portfolio, live on the web
Everything your child makes in our apps, a game, a robot program, a website, a song, a PC build, is saved in their account. A portfolio page puts the best of it on one page with its own link, so an evaluator, a grandparent or a college can open each project and try it, not just read about it.
- Make things. Every project in every app is saved as it is made.
- Pick what to show. In Settings, open Portfolio, choose projects, group them into collections such as Math or Art, and feature the best one at the top. Notebook write-ups can go on it too.
- Share the link. It lives at
mytekdev.com/portfolio/username. It stays private until you make it public, and a child or teen is shown by username only, never by name.
Unlike this page, a portfolio page is kept in your child's account on our site: that is what lets you share it. The Grid and Timeline layouts, ten color themes and an accent color are free; more layouts, a header or background picture and more fonts come with a Creator or Pro plan. Put the link on the cover sheet above and the evaluator gets it with the printout.

Make things with your kids
A free parent account comes with a Home class. Add your children as students and see every project they make and every lesson they finish. See what they can make, by age.

Pennsylvania and Florida both ask for a log made as the year goes that names reading materials by title, plus samples of the work. The day-by-day log lives in the attendance and hours log; print it and add it to the binder. Read the Pennsylvania and Florida guides for the rest, including who may evaluate.
Other states that do not require a portfolio still make it a good habit: it is the record if your child returns to school, and it feeds the transcript and course descriptions later.

Portfolio questions
Who writes the evaluation?
The evaluator does. In Pennsylvania a qualified evaluator interviews the child, reviews the portfolio and certifies whether an appropriate education is occurring; it cannot be the parent or the parent's spouse. In Florida one of the five methods is a teacher with a valid regular Florida certificate who reviews the portfolio and talks with the student. The letter here is a form they can use, or they may write their own.
How many samples should I keep?
Neither law sets a number. Pennsylvania evaluators conventionally look for a few dated samples in every subject across the year; Florida asks for samples with no quantity.
