On-line books and free things
I've been searching around for free stuff that will help the budget of the homeschooler. Boy, are there TONS of free things out there! I've made a small list of some things that might help your school budget.
First is on-line libraries! Who wouldn't love to find the book they need to read right on-line without wasting gas to go to the library and get it! Might not find too many children's books on these sites, but lots of good classics and highschool/college reading. These are just a few...search for 'on-line free books' and see what you come up with!
The University of Pennsylvania library
Alex Catalog of Electronic Texts (14,000 classic texts)
Bartleby On-line (the preeminent publisher of on-line literature)
Bibliomania (2000 free on-line texts)
William Shakespeare Complete Works (not poetry)
Read Easily has variable text font so your eyes don't strain so much reading on-line!
And now more free stuff on-line:
Homeschool Radio Shows
"Living Books for the Ears" newsletter brings you wonderful "old time radio" adaptations of great books and historic stories, chosen especially for homeschooling families, each and every week -- and it's absolutely free. One of my favorite listening sites.
Homeschool E Store "Tomorrow's Lessons Today" (electronic books for download)
They have many resources and one item is always free each week. Everything on the site is downloadable, and not real books.
OnePlace Kids - Here your kids can hear and enjoy the classic Christian radio programs such as Down Gilead Lane, Adventures in Odyssey, and more.
MarcoPoloSearch has the Thinkfinity Search Engine that provides access to all of the educational resources created by the Thinkfinity Partners plus Partner reviewed materials. Wonderful to find lots of information for download.
