Favorite online homeschool resources

There are some wonderful things online to help with homeschooling, for free!  Here's a running list of our favorite online resources.  Please send me your favorites, too!

School Sparks - a preschool and kindergarten readiness site, so not technically for homeschooling, but it has some great information, activities, and worksheets

Joyfully Rejoycing - mostly about unschooling, this site has some fascinating parenting posts as well

Starfall - Suzi loves playing reading games here, and now they have a math section too!

Typical course of study - from the World Book website, a list of what is typically covered in each grade; helpful since we are not currently adhering to any one curriculum

Raising Arrows homeschooling - ideas of what to do with your little ones during homeschooling time

The Singing Zoologist on YouTube - this guy is hilarious and educational!

Sheppard Software - The free geography games on this site are the best way I've ever seen to learn states, countries, capitals, and more.

IXL - I love these math games.  The games are free but more features are available if you join.
