Learning Along the Way
Feb. 15, 2009
I just LOVE free stuff.
Especially when it comes to homeschooling. Why should I have to pay a lot to teach my kids when there are so many resources out there that don't cost a cent?

Well, Homeschool Freebie of the Day is a gem. The Erskine family collects wonderful print resources, as well as audio!, for you to download each weekday! Some are old, out of print gems. Others are amazing $12 e-books! 

Here's the line-up for this week:
  1. Monday, Feb 16th: Great President's Day Resource Links! (links) Want to make the most of President's Day? Check out these Lesson Plans, virtual tours, poetry & the actual papers of presidents Washington & Lincoln!

The best way to make sure you don't miss them is to subscribe. Then when you get the email, scan it to see which days you need to make sure to be there. I flag the message so I don't miss out on the ones I want. Happy teaching!
