We recently experienced the death of a homeschool dad in our support group. I have had a burden for this mom and her girls. We are coming together to try to help as best we can, but the grief is still fresh and she still is having trouble making decisions. Moms in this situation will find it hard to homeschool, so I am posting these links primarily for us to share with these moms, but also for the general benefit, as in these economic times, who couldn't use free materials, right?
I have a few sites that I regularly get freebies from. I try not to subscribe to too many newsletters, etc., as I end up not having the time to read them. But I access these regularly. Some of you are probably already familiar with these.
- Homeschoolfreebieoftheday.com (if you sign up for their weekly newsletter, you get a heads up on what is offered that week and also an extra freebie not offered to those who don't get the newsletter)
- HomeschoolRadioShows.com (my kids love these audio files -- a new one every week; they also offer, for members, a study guide to accompany each audio selection)
- CurrClick.com (weekly free item to download -- lots of unit studies, lap books, etc.)
Behemoth.com (free audio file changes, I think, daily, so check in often)
I was doing a search for free resources online and came across these that you might be able to utilize in your homeschool or family time. Perhaps, if you know a single mom who wants to homeschool or a widow who is looking for assistance in low-cost curriculum, you could forward these links. Let's make a conscious effort to help those women withouth husbands and those children without fathers!
Blessings,
Barb
