Questions and Answers
Im am from the u.k and have recently re-located with my 6year old son to spain. Im told i cannot enrole my son into school till September and im worried he will fall behind in school with such a long break. Is there any websites where i can get worksheets to home tutor him until september english maths and basic spanish.
Hello Kay,
To be honest, I'm not into worksheets. They are busy work. Do something with your son that's enjoyable, play some games, measure out ingredients to bake or cook, etc. He's only six.
Because you're in Spain, I'm not sure if you can locate this book, but it's worth a try: The 3 R Series (a group of 3 booklets) by Ruth Beechik. They're excellent and will get your son off to a great start. So well, in fact, you may want to keep him at home!

My granddaughter was kicked out of school at the end of her 7th grade year last year, another stupid thing with Galatia schools. Never put your kids in the schools here, they aren't worth a penny. Well, anyway. I have decided to homeschool her. I need help finding cheap homeschooling books and stuff. Cheap, as cheap as possible. Help please!
First you need to check out the laws for your state. The laws will even tell you which courses are required for your state, of course you may add to them. http://ift.tt/YbUtHh
Old Fashioned Education has links to a lot of free or nearly free printable curriculum. I would suggest trying there first and then deciding which subjects you want to purchase. You may need to go down a grade level or two for some subjects, because a lot of homeschool curriculum teaches concepts at least a semester, if not a full year before public schools.
The Life of Fred math series is inexpensive and fun. The website has sample pages to help decide which level she needs, but you get a better deal by purchasing from Rainbow Resource Center. Some children need a little extra practice over certain concepts, so you can print free worksheets from Math U See.
Christian Liberty Press has a reasonably priced 7th grade Science.
Everyday spelling is available online, so need to purchase.
Pathway Readers and Climbing to Good English are both inexpensive. I know of a number of homeschoolers who either have used Pathway Readers or simply have them in their homes as storybooks. Sample pages are available at http://ift.tt/1iq9V8S;
For History, I would suggest going to the Sonlight website and looking at which books are part of either the 6th or 7th grade History program. Take the list of books to the local public library and borrow the ones that you can. Sonlight is a literature-based program and most children tend to get more out of history through reading interesting books rather than boring history textbooks, plus most public libraries have a number of the required books.
