Public schools post their curriculum or unit studies on their website, giving homeschoolers a free jumping-off point to start with their child. This can be used to find read-alouds, science topics, and chapter books for middle school/high school students.
Check out used book stores or library book sales to stock up on books for your child. Websites like Mercari often have great books available at great prices. If you are looking for a completely FREE option, make sure each member of your family has a library card and head to the library every Monday to grab some cheap homeschool books and topic-specific books for learning.
Head to the internet to find free resources for homeschooling on a tight budget. Websites like Teachers Pay Teachers and The Relaxed Homeschool offer printables and resources to help you teach.
Homeschooling online resources and programs are available for free, including Khan Academy, Prodigy Math Game, and Relaxed Homeschool, which offer discounts for homeschooling families.
Field trips are a great way to explore and save money, even if it is just to the park.
Homeschooling can be expensive, so it is important to find reusable materials and use whiteboards instead of blank paper or lined paper.
