FREE HOMESCHOOLING 101 BASICS

There are many different homeschooling styles. Some families run smoothly with a lot of structure while others run well with no structure at all. The one thing we all have in common is the love of all things FREE when it comes to educating our children. Free Homeschooling 101 is all about FREE ways to teach our children.

Our goal is to build a database of valuable links and ideas that we can share for FREE. In order to do this we want to hear from YOU! What are YOUR favorite FREE educational site, trips, ideas? Please let us know.



As for our Quick List to get started fast, here's is
the tip of the Iceberg.

1. For those who choose to follow a guideline for schooling, here is a site that organizes a
"Typical Course of Study" By Grade Level.

The links on this website can help guide parents to find worksheets and online assignments to fulfill the Typical Course of Study topics. As we check them off the list, we know we are educating our children. It's a wonderful feeling!

2. Here are FREE Online Diagnostic tests. They can be downloaded and saved in PDF format to our computer. They start with 1st grade Math and Language and test thru 12th grade.

They are "meant" to be a Placement tests to help parents know what level of work their child is best suited for, for the AOP curriculum, however they can also be a valuable tool for assessing a child's strengths and weaknesses in Math and Language. I suggest starting ALL children at the 1st grade level. Older children...even teens...will almost assuredly need to brush up on things...sometimes even from 1st grade.

AOP LANGUAGE AND MATH DIAGNOSTIC TESTS:

3. The next step is to Find Free Curriculum that works for your child. Here are some more popular stops on the Free Homeschooling Journey...

Learning Pages K - 5th

FREE WORLD UNIVERSITY Kindergarten THRU Pre-Med Curriculum!
BALTIMORE CURRICULUM PROJECT GRADES K - 5TH
CHARLOTTE MASON CLASSICAL EDUCATION
OLD FASHIONED EDUCATION (Taught through literature)
PRESCHOOL & Helped along with Mom's Blog
BOOKLIST FOR ALL GRADES



4. Once you pick a curriculum you work the plan and use the diagnostic tests twice a year to make sure you're on track and to find learning gaps. Use the free websites/worksheets and other free tools from this site to fill in learning gaps and teach the rest of the curriculum plan.

That's all folks! :o) Happy Free Homeschooling!!

PLACEMENT TESTS

FREE PLACEMENT TESTS: We use placement tests to find learning gaps at the beginning
of each school year. Depending on the tests we use, we can easily take AT LEAST a week to do all of the testing. No matter what grade our child is in they begin with the lowest grade level and work their way up until they no longer know what's going on.

AOP LANGUAGE AND MATH DIAGNOSTIC TESTS: 1st thru 12th grade. Can save as a PDF to use in future years.


Online testing: GRADES 3RD THRU 12TH
**You will have to fill out the online form if you choose the Switched-0n-Schoolhouse testing.

EDHELPER INFORMATION

everything you need to teach children for an entire year...
