I have put up a site that is just a place for Christian homeschool kids to find penpals. I'm not selling anything, it's really a free service because I know so many kids are looking for penpals. Can I put this up as a link? So far my own child and two others have signed up.
I think your link is fine... it's unfortunate that the service provider puts up so many gaudy ads though. There is also a section at http://forums.atozteacherstuff.com for class penpals that you might want to post in (although the site itself is non-homeschool oriented).
Thank you. I IMd Amanda and she suggested I put it in my sig, so I did. Thank you for the AtoZ tip, as well.
Here's one that I don't need yet, but I thought would be great when the kids hit highschool. http://www.thehomescholar.com/
Found a Great Homeschool Site! I found a great homeschool site that is NOT expensive! For a long time I have wanted to homeschool my children. I am a single parent, and could not afford expensive curriculums. I knew I needed a program that I could feel confident with. I needed to find a program that not only offers an inexpensive homeschool alternative to traditional schooling but, one that would exceed my expectations on an academic level. Time4Learning has satisfied my concerns in every area! I’ve seen my children grow with the program, and they actually enjoy the time spent on their lessons. There are not many programs out there that do not place you in a financial bind....and I am so happy I found this site! The small monthly charge is inexpensive, and the program is so valuable. Thank you Time4Learning! Check it out...if you have any questions, let me know. I have been successfully homeschooling both of my kids on this program. :angel:
Hi Vikki, I think the site is really good for your 5,8,and 3 yr old....actually also for your 10yr old, too. The site is very animated, and Sarah..my daughter who is 8, loves doing her work. I guess the best thing for me..is if you look at the lesson plans ...if follows most State requirements ..if not all of them. The record keeping keeps me from going insane! God bless, Rachel
we used time4learning last year and the kids loved it. They didn't seem to like it so much this year, not sure why, i agree record keeping is nice
Am I allowed to post here too as a newbie? I have a site I love for free printables. One of the things I really like about it is they have some that are 'make your own' so you can gear it to your child's level. I've printed out some make your own word searches, math and money (coins) worksheets for my son. It for K-6th I think (my son is in K) http://www.havefunteaching.com/ This site has lots of links to other sites with free resources http://homeschool.withpurpose.com/ And this blog post here http://www.withpurpose.com/2008/08/02/homeschooling-for-free-series/ has links to her other blog posts that list free resources sorted by subject.
