dsmith Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I don't know if you're looking for free or paid sites, but the ones we use the most are www.iknowthat.com, www.enchantedlearning.com (not as much as we used to now that ds is getting older), and www.teacherfilebox.com. I'm also on Donna Young's site for various forms. Wikipedia is an almost daily site - I'm always telling ds to wiki it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CarolineUK Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 My boys just love Mathletics and can spend hours doing really challenging maths problems (even the 10 year old who spends all week at school!) - the British home education organisation Education Otherwise have organised a discount for home educators here - don't know if there's anything similar over there.

Mrs Mungo Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 This is just a small selection of websites that we use frequently. I probably have 300 bookmarks sorted into folders (science, math, reading, etc) if someone is looking for something in particular. discovery streaming enchanted learning purple math Homeschool Buyers Co-op free resources typing games public domain images (great for timelines) PBS and the History Channel sites both have tons of resources Spelling City Meet the Masters printable maps handwriting worksheets Zaner Bloser printable templates abc teach has some free materials Brainpop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryde55 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Something my friend suggested for U.S. art history is the National Endowment for the Humanities' "Picturing America" online curriculum. If you search the website, you will find all sorts of great art curricula on various topics. At one point, my friend and another homeschool family went in as a homeschool consortium and were able to apply for and given a free set of laminated posters of the "Picturing America" artwork from the curriculum. Check it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
