Sometimes as homeschoolers, we don't have the money to buy the curriculum we want. Sometimes we don't have the money to buy the supplemental materials we'd like.
Today's homeschool tip is to search the internet for free curricula. I've been amazed in the past year by how many free curriculums there are available online. I'm thankful that others have shared the curriculum and lessons they've designed, so that more families have a chance to homeschool. Many of these are unit studies, and that may not be a teaching method you have used, but sometimes we need to try something new. And when the money to buy text books isn't there, the motivation to try something new may be stronger.
Please be cautious when searching for free curriculum online. Practice integrity, and do not use websites that are violating copyright laws. If you find a website that has posted someone else's curriculum, in violation of copyright laws, do not participate in that theft by using what was posted.
And lastly, Homeschool eStore offers a free curriculum product each week. You can register to be notified of their free item each week, by creating an account at their website. I've seen them offer free curriculum for history, geography, handwriting, Bible, literature, and science. Many of them are short unit studies, but they are definitely a blessing to homeschoolers on limited budgets. They also have downloadable e-curriculum available for sale at very reasonable prices.
Hopefully, these websites can help someone who is homeschooling on a small budget.
