How ReadWriteBuild Works: Homeschool Records for Parents, Activity Hub for Kids
August 26, 2026
ReadWriteBuild gives your family two connected spaces: Homeschool Records, where parents plan and keep the year organized, and Activity Hub, where kids log what they read, write, and build.
ReadWriteBuild gives your family two connected spaces under one account—one built for parents, one built for kids.
- Homeschool Records is your side: Plan the week, organize curriculum, track learning and attendance, save work samples, and prepare reports—all in one place instead of scattered across notebooks, calendars, and your camera roll.
- Activity Hub is theirs: Kids log what they read, write, and build, then watch their progress grow.
Both use the same child profile, so parents and kids each have their own way to take part in the school year.
Start with one child profile
Getting started is simple: add a child to your family account.
That profile keeps the child’s information organized throughout ReadWriteBuild. Homeschool Records helps you manage their school year; Activity Hub shows their reading, writing, building, projects, and progress.
If you have more than one child, each child has their own organized space.
Homeschool Records makes planning and recordkeeping easier
Homeschool parents are responsible for a lot: planning the week, keeping track of curriculum and learning, marking attendance, saving work samples for a portfolio, and preparing reports.
Homeschool Records brings those jobs together so you can stay organized as the year unfolds.
You can use it to:
- plan the week with Weekly Goals and see current learning in Today;
- organize courses, books, programs, and other materials in Curriculum;
- mark and review Attendance;
- keep lessons, readings, classes, projects, and practice organized in the Learning Log;
- save field trips, achievements, photos, and work samples in Highlights; and
- create and print parent-reviewed Reports.
Together, these views make it easier to see where each child stands at a glance, keep track of the year, and gather the records that can support a homeschool portfolio.
Activity Hub helps kids participate
Activity Hub is the kid-friendly side of ReadWriteBuild. A child might log a chapter, a journal page, a comic, a LEGO creation, a recipe, a sewing project, a science experiment, or something made from cardboard.
Kids can revisit their activity in the Timeline, continue longer work as Projects, and see their progress through challenges, rewards, levels, and celebrations.
A parent can log for a younger child, or parent and child can add a win together on a shared family device.
One activity can support both
Imagine a ten-year-old named Maya builds a cardboard animal habitat.
In Activity Hub, Maya can log it as a Build win, add time or a photo, and continue it as a Project. In Homeschool Records, her mom can open the Learning Log and choose Add to Learning Log from the recent Activity Hub entries instead of typing the activity again. The original stays in Activity Hub, and her mom can review the new record and add any school-specific details she wants.
If the finished habitat becomes a portfolio-worthy project, she can also save it as a Highlight with a work sample.
One real learning experience gives Maya visible progress while helping her mom keep the homeschool year organized.
Which space should you open?
Use Homeschool Records when you want to plan the week, organize curriculum, mark attendance, record learning, save work samples or Highlights, or prepare a report.
Use Activity Hub when your child wants to log a Read, Write, or Build win, continue a Project, see progress, or complete a challenge.
Use both when an activity matters to your child and belongs in the homeschool record.
Begin in three simple steps
- Add one child.
- Open Homeschool Records. Set one Weekly Goal, mark attendance, or add one learning activity.
- Open Activity Hub. Log one Read, Write, or Build win together.
In just a few minutes, both parent and child have a clear place to begin.
One account, clear roles
Homeschool Records gives parents a simpler way to plan and keep the year organized. Activity Hub gives kids a place to participate and see their effort grow. Both stay connected through the same child profile and family account.
