Here are a few of the Homeschool Freebies that I found this past week and printed off to use here at our house. Maybe you will find them helpful at your home too.

 

FREE e-book: 52 Weeks of Homeschool Group Activities

This is packed full of fun ideas, some of which I will be using to change things up around here a bit.

FREE Ten Commandments Copywork

These are available with the option of print or cursive. Such a great way to reinforce memorization and to improve handwriting skills.

Free Learning State Capitals Printables

These will come in so handy for reinforcing the work we have been doing. There are also other links for even more worksheets and activities that I will print out as well.
