I have decided to dedicate a few blogs a week to free homeschool curriculum and resources this is the third edition. I was going to do these once a week but due to popular demand and the fact I have 12 years of resources gathered I am going to up the pace of these post to two to three a week.

I help run a page on Facebook with the same name as in the title. A friend came up with the idea and asked me to help run it because us like many families that home school or want to home school don't have thousands of dollars to spend on curriculum and are lucky if we have even a few hundred dollars to spend on curriculum so what we did was scour the internet and tried to gather all the free resources in one place.
Today's edition is going to focus Free Science Resources. I hope you find it helpful and that you and your children have some fun while creating some cool project. My youngest daughter loves science and is studying to be a Chemist at Purdue University. Some of these resources we used as she was growing up. This was a science fair she entered when she was in 6th grade I think.

Youtube is another great source and this list is not exhaustive of free science resources. But as a home schooling mother with years of experience, I don't want to share too much in one post because it will overwhelm a mother or father new to home schooling along with experienced ones alike, but I am trying to share enough resources so if you are home schooling on a low budget or no budget you have some options. I hope you guys continue enjoying this series. If the response stays good I will keep putting this out.
If there is something you would like me to cover in the next post please leave me a comment below or send me a message on Steemit.chat you can find me there under @tecnosgirl
For those looking for elective courses check out www.futurelearn.com it is free for the classes and if you want certification or credits you just pay for the test. It is cool resource though not totally free if you want the certification or credits the testing can give you.
