I have been looking into homeschool curriculum and found a couple awesome programs.  I've actually used this (3rd, 4th, 5th grade) program while tutoring and this is the best I've ever seen:

Easy Peasy All-in-One Homeschool:  A complete, free online Christian homeschool curriculum  https://allinonehomeschool.com/



I found another (I haven't personally used) that looks good.  It does cost; however, I see that they have easy payment plans:  Abeka Homeschool Curriculum:    https://www.abeka.com/HomeSchool

Pigly is a free online personal finance guide offering over 100 financial calculators.

We recently published an in-depth guide to help teach kids the importance of building an emergency savings plan.

With most schools going virtual for the foreseeable future, families are looking for ways to keep their children educationally engaged.

Our experts created a guide that gives parents the appropriate resources to teach their children to become financially literate adults. We also provide benchmarks, games and other educational resources for different grade levels.

To spread this information to those who could benefit from using it, please add our guide:

I have been so busy lately, I can't seem to find time to update this site on a regular basis.  Be patient, maybe this winter I can add a lot more info.

In the mean time, I did receive a few e-mails:

From Tim at Fiscal Tiger:  https:// www.fiscaltiger.com/cost-to-homeschool-your-child/

From Derek about books:

The reading resources on your Everything you need to Know about Music, Art, and English! page are incredibly helpful! Your page inspired me to assemble my own reading resource for parents and children.

Over the last few months I've been building the 50 Best Children's Books of All Time list. The list includes the most quintessence children's reading classics, both new and old.

The best children's book list includes:

• The 50 best children's books of all time
• Books sorted into age groups (infant / toddler, preschool, elementary, and middle school)
• Research and studies on the importance of reading
• Tips for parents on how to read to their children (all ages covered!)

Reading throughout childhood is more important than many parents realize. Here are a few surprising stats from major studies around the US.

• 80% of a child's brain is formed in the first 3 years (according to the Reach Out & Read program)
• Low-income children are especially at risk for development and literacy delays
• 20% of adults have a below basic literacy level (according to a National Center for Education Statistics)

While I was growing up I came across a quote that has always stayed with me... "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Suffice to say, I don't think my best children's books of all time list is going to change the world, but if it can just help one child or family it will have been worth creating it.

I hope it's a resource you find helpful and would consider adding it to share with your community.

Thanks so much for your time and for all you do for our children.

Warmest Regards,

As a working mom, this whole situation has represented a big challenge trying to manage work and homeschooling, but I also know it is a rewarding experience that has helped me connect with my kids as we learn together and build a lifelong bond!

With this in mind, I decided to also take the time to write the article How to Create the Best Environment for Homeschooling and share some tips that have worked for me to go through this situation.

Let me catch you up on who has sent suggestions in the past year or so:

In Oct. 2019, Daniel Brown of Study.com sent this:
I am writing to ask if you could add a link to Study.com’s homeschool curriculum.
As I’m sure you know, many homeschool families are looking for opportunities to individualize their child’s education and engage more closely with their learning. They need a platform that allows them to adapt a curriculum to their family’s schedule and circumstances.
With Study.com:

• Learning is engaging – courses are built around short, animated video lessons
• Courses span grades 3-12 and across wide range of core and elective subjects
• No restriction on how many courses members can take
• Members set custom start and end dates to suit their schedule and stay on track
• Free mobile app supports learning any time, anywhere

Homeschooling Parent Magazine selected Study.com for its 2019 Homeschool Friendly Award, giving their seal of approval to our comprehensive and flexible education platform, perfect for homeschooling families.

And in May of 2019, Robert Wilkins sent this:
I am working with Maryville University Online to share a new college guide they created.

The guide is called "Guide for Homeschool Students Transitioning to College" and offers information for homeschooled students on finding and applying to college, which can be a daunting prospect for many students, but it can be especially challenging for homeschooled students. These students face challenges associated with a lack of college counseling, non-traditional high school courses, and a fear of entering college without the same experiences of traditional highschool students.

However, there are a variety of resources available to homeschooled students, and with guidance, finding the route to a successful college career can become much more attainable. The guide we created is offered as a tool to bridge the gap and offer an all-around resource for those who need it.

You can find the guide here: https://online.maryville.edu/blog/guide-for-homeschool-students-transitioning-to-college/

We feel you can never have enough information when it comes to college and helping those who have been homeschooled find what they need is exceptionally important. It would be wonderful if you could consider including our guide along with the amazing resources you already offer.

January of this year, James Corbin from Ivy Panda sent this:
Nowadays, more parents are choosing to educate their kids at home instead of sending them to traditional schools.  As a parent myself, I got interested in the topic. Having done some research, I attempted to sum up the main benefits as well as disadvantages of both public schools and home education in my infographic “Homeschooling 101”.
Here’s the link: https://ivypanda.com/blog/homeschooling-101/

And in Feb., Maggie Monroe of SeatUp sent this:
My name is Maggie and I work with SeatUp. When I saw that your resource page,I wanted to share a piece we recently published called K-12 Resources for Music Educators as a possible addition to your page.
It provides outside resources that could be great in a homeschooling setting.  Things like homemade music instruments and music lesson plans in addition to biographies, history, and works of the great composers. You can find that information for review below:
https://seatup.com/blog/k-12-resources-for-music-educators 

And finally, this recently from Nayari Chifundo of Annuity.org:
This is  Nayari and I'm reaching out on behalf of Annuity.org - a site dedicated to providing the most accurate financial information out there.

We believe when students learn financial literacy at an early age helps them to make astute decisions about their personal finances, smart financial behavior leads to financially secure lives.    

In hopes of promoting financial literacy among students, we have created a comprehensive, easy-to-read guide for students.

I am grateful for the readers who are helped by the resources on my site.  Here is an e-mail I received before Christmas:
"My daughter Piper and I just wanted to reach out and say thank you . Piper had a big quarter art project for art class on Modern Art Movements due a couple weeks back. In her online research she found your page http://www.musicartandenglish.com/music-art-and-english-resources.html - it was so helpful to her I wanted to reach out and thank you. I hadn't seen her that invested in her school work in a long time. I'm grateful she seems to be so committed to art - my father was an artist himself(not by profession, just by hobby) and I'm happy Piper seems to be carrying on his passion.

Last night was Piper's Christmas concert and her art teacher specifically came up to me to tell me what a great job she did on that project. It reminded me that I wanted to email you to thank you for your part in it. When I told Piper I was going to reach out to thank you, she suggested that I let you know about another online resource she found, "People Who Shaped Surrealist Art" at https://www.truepeoplesearch.com/find/content-people-who-shaped-surrealist-art . She thought it would be a good addition to the resources on your page. I know it was helpful to Piper in her research, so hopefully you find some use for it too."
