I thought it would be great if we shared some of our favorite free on-line resources. Here are mine: http://www.superteacherworksheets.com/ one of my absolute favs. Love the kid-friendly language in the lessons and worksheets. Nice section on the human body systems as well. Adore this one for LA lessons. http://www.softschools.com/math/worksheets/ http://www.ezschool.com/EZSheets/Writing/Capitalize/index.html popups on this site, but decent resources http://www.msnucleus.org/membership/k-6.html Meaty science, but with some tweaking, the information and activities are nice. http://www.kidzone.ws/ favorite site for word families http://www.handwritingworksheets.com/flash/printdots/sentence/index.html love this site for making copywork Misc: http://www.worldbook.com/typical-course-of-study.html by grade, good for baseline of what you could teach when. http://www.poetry4kids.com/poems These are truly funny kids poems, reminiscent of Shel Silverstein (different author though!) http://en.proverbia.net/shortfamousquotes.asp Great famous quotes (I use sometimes for copywork) http://www.superteacherworksheets.com/paper/hundredschart1.pdf direct link to the 100's chart http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/math.htm cute math games
Alright, I'll try, not sure I can list them ALL...but I'll list what I can remember off the top of my head! www.starfall.com - all three of my kids learned to read with this program. And all three of my kids read at least two grade levels ahead. Was it the Starfall? I don't know. But...I think it was! www.worksheetworks.com - I like this one for all the customizable printables you can do! Handwriting, maps, etc. everything! www.learningpage.com - all sorts of stuff. You have to become a member, which is free, membership gives you access to a lot of stuff. I LOVE IT. This site is connected to the AtoZ sites...so you'll hear when they're having their freebie weeks. www.handwritingforkids.com - all sorts of stuff for handwriting including animations on teaching the formation of letters, all sorts of worksheets for handwriting. www.sheppardsoftware.com - all sorts of free online learning games. http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/typing/ - online typing teacher. So awesome. My oldest types really well now, and my middle is learning as well as my youngest! http://www.glencoe.com/sec/literature/litlibrary/ - this is mostly upper elementary/middle school. It's literature study guides for all sorts of books. I've used several of these with my oldest. http://www.childrensuniversity.manchester.ac.uk/ - all kinds of sciency stuff. It has games and printables, it's got little movies to watch, etc. It's fairly neutral on it's stance between evolution/creationism. http://www.noetic-learning.com/mathdrill/index.jsp - Math worksheet generator. There is a membership fee for the stuff beyond the freebies - but it's $9.95 a year. http://www.classicsforkids.com/ - Online Music stuff. Very cool. I think that's it for now. If I remember more, I'll let you know!!!
My favorite is www.youtube.com. I use it almost everyday for some subject or another. My daughter loves watching Chinese Lion Dancing on there while we are doing schoolwork too. I've also used www.starfall.com www.spellingcity.com
Huge list of free links on our website. I generally included notations with each link so you know what it is like. I see some of my favs are listed above. And some I haven't seen. I would like to say I was really impressed too with sheppardsoftware. Its one of the few accurate geography content sites I have found for Canada. I am going to be using it a lot this coming year as we study our country in depth
Thought Elevators Review :Thought is a belief or notion made by intuition or occurrence unexpectedly in our brain. Once in a while, you don't control your brain, or even you often have negative thought of life. What's more, now, you wish to enhance your idea and control your brain
Two sites I really like - http://www.hiphomeschoolmoms.com/ - Hip Homeschool Moms has tons of great DIY ideas and learning projects. http://www.educents.com/all-subjects-freebie-bundle-grades-3rd-5th-36999.html - Educents has some great freebies. I've also heard they have some good paid products.
I second BearCubMama! I stumbled upon Educents on my Facebook feed and found a lot of great freebies, also purchased the Life of Fred beginning reader books from them and my daughter is loving them!
I third this! Hip Hop is the absolute best! Does anyone else have solid resources? A lot of this thread looks outdated. I'll try and add some of my own to this thread eventually.
Here are some seriously amazing ones: http://www.raisingdv.com/easy-science-experiments-amaze-kids/ https://homeschoolbase.com/free-ebooks-for-homeschooling/ https://homeschoolbase.com/commons https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAZKtYcE5Jgd6hVL-RHv6Vw/playlists www.rebelhomeschool.com/free-speed-reading-course/
