This week's assignment is to share our internet treasures. So here we go!
A website I visit every day: Wunderground - this is simply the best weather site out there. Anything weather related, they have it. And they're usually very accurate.
First place I look for a book to buy: Amazon - always.
Favorite Homeschool support area: probably the Yahoo group for KONOS. If you're using their curriculum, there are lots of links and things, plus a place to chat with other KONOS families.
Homeschool site full of information I use regularly: Clickschooling. Lots of information on websites you can use to teach. Every day they have a new link. I've found some of the most awesome sites this way!
Site I buy new curriculum from: Discount Homeschool Supply - they seem to have the best prices around, and they are homeschoolers, too!
Site I buy used curriculum from: Homeschool Classifieds - other homeschoolers looking to sell their used materials. Also, Amazon.
A site that offers frugal tips to save money: I don't have one
A site that provides good wholesome recipes: Simple & Delicious - I get the magazine, so there's extra subscriber content available, but even if you don't subscribe, you can find just about everything here.
A site I'd allow my children to visit: Professor Garfield - they love Garfield, and they love this site!
A site that offers a calendar with historical and other events: Universal Preschool has a nice day-by-day calendar.
Other sites that provide a wealth of information: Enchanted Learning is great for unit studies or supplemental activities. But my favorite way to find a lesson plan is to Google "lesson plan" and whatever we're studying. I have found some of the best resources this way and I highly recommend it as a way to homeschool for free, if you have the time to plan it! |
