    250: Verizon Learning Portal

    The Verizon Learning Portal is a free collection of online lessons for K – 12. In this episode I share some of the cools things I found in it and what it was like working through a lesson.

    What Is the Verizon Innovative Learning Portal?

    Verizon Innovative Learning HQ is a free library of standards-aligned lessons, activities, and lesson plans for grades K–12 — no cost and no Verizon account required. For homeschoolers it’s a handy, ready-made resource across core subjects, plus newer topics like coding, AR/VR, and AI.

    How Homeschoolers Can Use It

    • Ready-made lessons — grab a complete, standards-based lesson when you want something done-for-you.
    • Enrichment & electives — explore emerging-tech topics you might not teach on your own.
    • Fill a gap — supplement a subject where you’d like a fresh explanation or activity.

    Is it free? Yes — completely free to use.

    I also share about the 7 full courses they offer.
