I've been browsing the web this past week, searching for curriculum for our homeschool, and I came across a ton of great free resources for homeschoolers that I wanted to share with any homeschooling readers I might have. I tried to make it easy to browse through by breaking it down by subject. Hope you find something that you like!

ALL SUBJECTS
NumberNut ~ Love this site! Explanations of math concepts and fun activities. Elementary to advanced. Scroll down the homepage for a tour of the website.
MathVids ~ Excellent instructional videos, especially for more difficult high school subjects. I watched a couple of these and they are easy to understand and don't take any time to load.

Columbus Zoo ~ I love Jack Hanna! This is a link to Jungle Jack's Animal Guide. Very fun interactive world map, great for all ages to explore!
Smithsonian ~ Speaks for itself...tons of really amazing stuff here. I plan on letting my kids explore this site before we take them to D.C. this year to visit the museums!

PRESCHOOL
LetterOfTheWeek ~ Totally free complete preschool curriculums, progressing from "Preparatory Curriculum" to "Letter of the Week" to "Sound of the Week" to "Story of the Week"! 4 years of free curriculum! Also offers free curriculum guides for higher grades, although I can't speak to this personally, as I've never used them.
OTHER
CyberSmart! ~ Awesome free computer curriculum! I will definitely be using this one throughout the year. Click on the links to the left to access lessons by grade level or topic. K thru 12.
I would love to hear from you if you use any of these free resources. Tell me what you think!
Blessings!
