Bookshark Virtual

BookShark Virtual is an online platform that you can add to your curriculum package. The software is designed for families on the move, who want digital access to their program and online assessments to monitor student's progress.

Your child still reads their real books (no online reading) but it will empower your child to access their reading schedules, take assessments, and receive instant auto-graded results.

You will have your own login that enables you to view schedules and lesson plans and review your child's progress from anywhere.

Testimonials
BookShark made it easy for me to buy everything—including Math—from one website
BookShark made it easy for me to buy everything—including Math—from one website. I chose BookShark mainly because it has a 4-day schedule that is detailed and easy to implement, even for a busy mom. (I have a toddler as well.) We usually double up on the Science and History each day. This minimizes the switching time for me, and it works!

Thanks to BookShark, yesterday's teachings went so well
Thanks to BookShark, yesterday's teachings went so well. We started reading four different books, and neither one of us wanted to put them down. They all cross over to different subjects and are super engaging. Math was a breeze. I have never seen Taylor this interested in reading and learning. This makes me a happy momma!

Carrie Moore

We are very grateful for this curriculum, and I have to say it's so complete we haven't felt the need to shop around for anything else.
Due to the fantastic Readers and Read-Alouds in BookShark, Kabir's favorite subject is now history, and he participated in the National History Bee last year, winning second place in the Regional Finals and 12th in the National Finals. I credit his amazing performance to his five years of BookShark History!

Thanks to BookShark, yesterday's teachings went so well
Bookshark has been such an amazing blessing for our family. The way the lessons are planned out, it takes so much stress off of me. It's straightforward, easy to understand, and totally organized. I feel like they're holding my hand every step of the way. The fact that it's Literature-based, makes my bibliophile heart happy. We spend a lot of time cuddled up reading together, and in doing so I'm raising a reader. His curriculum is literally instilling a love of reading in him, and that is worth a million bucks in my book! With Bookshark's Language Arts Curriculum, I get to share some of my childhood book favorites with my child. Before we started this school year, I had no idea how much he LOVED science. Now every week he looks forward to the Science experiments from the Science curriculum, and we've even been doing ALL of the optional ones as well.

The decision to homeschool our daughter, Alexa, was an easy one. Choosing a curriculum that worked well with her goals and schedule was a little more difficult. Alexa aspires to represent the United States on a national scale as an elite gymnast—a goal that takes a lot of hours, dedication, and focus. Using Bookshark has added a great deal of flexibility to our daily schedule. This is our first year using Bookshark, and she has already asked that we order Level 4 as soon as she has finished Level 3. She is just over halfway through the curriculum and is loving it. Bookshark's four-day week plan has been amazing for our family. It is easy to see what she needs to accomplish, and there isn't an overabundance of work each day. Currently, Alexa is working on the TOPS 38 Radish section for Science, and it has been her favorite part of the curriculum so far. She is loving the fact that she is growing food in her bedroom as part of her schoolwork. The charting and graphing are great tools she will be able to use for future experiments and classes.
