I don't know where you are in the U.S....I'm assuming you're in the US....there is a program called K12. It is a program that can be purchased...quite expensive, but if you sign up through a charter school...technically you would be a public school student who learns independently at home...you could get it free...I think they even provide the computer and Internet connection. Anyway, go to this website: http://www.k12.com/ and click around a little. You should be able to find where they are having demonstrations in your area...as well as if the charter schools are available in your area. Where I'm from (California), the charter schools are called CAVA (California Virtual Academy) You may also search under "virtual academy" in a search engine, and add in whatever state you're from. \n\nBest of Luck!

I home school my kids and have had wonderful results with a book called "Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons" by Siegfried Engelmann.  I know several 3 and 4 yr olds who have learned with this program.  You can take it at your own pace and you see results very early in the program.  There are also some wonderful curriculum out there for preschool, some have been mentioned already:\n\nhttp://www.mfwbooks.com/\nhttp://www.sonlight.com/\nhttp://www.bright-beginnings.net/\nhttp://www.caitscurriculum.com/\n\nHere are some great links to websites dedicated to early childhood learning.  I use them often for great ideas for learning and fun!:\n\nhttp://www.handsofachild.com/2/\nhttp://www.preschoolrainbow.org/index.htm\nhttp://www.muddlepuddle.co.uk/index.htm\nhttp://www.enchantedlearning.com/Home.html\n\nI hope that helps, if you are planning on home schooling after preschool I would recommend finding a home school support group in your area and get plugged in with other families who homeschool.  \n\nBlessings.

As a home school Mom, I use the Internet to get alot of information. You can search by grade or subject. Use something like Google or just search- you can be very specific or very broad- you will find a ton of information out there. Many site offer free down-loadable pages- educational and for fun! Also many stores offer workbooks that could be used in teaching many different subjects.

I would recommend trying to hook up with a local homeschool support group. They will be able to tell you all about the regulations where you live, what sort of things are available, etc.\n\nAlso, check out www.hslda.org yourself for the regulations and just surf the web a bit and check out your local library--there should be some books on homeschooling in the education section.\n\nBeyond that, consider what type of homeschooling you want to do. You don't say how old you are, if you want a diploma or anything like that. There are a ton of online programs to choose from if you want to go that route. There are also just a ton of other programs available, period. A Beka, Robinson and Sonlight are three that pop into my head at the moment, but there are others, too--oh, like Switched On Schoolhouse, AlphaOmega... You may also just be able to do your own thing. Depends on the regulations where you live!\n\nTo those naysaying your interest, I say ignore them. Homeschooling can be great if you make it great.

There's not much to pay for really!  Depending on what state you are in, you can probably do it for almost free!  A library card, internet access, some paper and pencils are just about all you need!\nI'm homeschooling my three children for almost nothing.  My 8 year old is doing the most focused work, so I'll tell you what I do with him. \n\nWriting: a $9 workbook from Wal Mart called "The Complete Book of Handwriting."  This goes from age 5-10 or something like that.  For older kids, they don't need much, just practice. \n\nReading: Whatever library books he's interested in.  We started off with a phonics program from A Beka, but you can find phonics curriculums free online if you look hard enough.  A Beka has a book called "A Handbook for Reading" that you can get for about $12, that teaches all the phonics sounds. \n\nHistory, Science, Social Studies:  Look at the WorldBook encyclopedia Scope and Sequence website.  They'll have a list of what should be learned at each grade level.  Then you can go to the library and find REAL books about those topics. You can look for science and history projects online for your topic. You can watch movies and educational tv shows about your topic.  \n\nMath:  For math, we use workbooks from Wal Mart. "The Complete Book of Math- Grades 5-6" is what my 8 year old son is using right now.  They're cheap (about $9 a piece), and cover everything that needs to be covered.  If your child needs extra practice in something, you can look online and find free worksheets.  Example:  My son needed help with long division.  I did a search for "long division free worksheets" and found a lot of them that I downloaded and printed out for him. \n\nI've educated my son for about $40 per year!   It's a lot cheaper than most people think.  Of course you could go out and buy an expensive $500 curriculum, but it probably wouldn't work for your child, as most homeschoolers tend to realize that the all in one curriculums just aren't for them.  Try it the really cheap way that I just described and I'm sure you and your children will love it!\n\nIf you need any more help, please email me!! I love helping people with these things!

Teacher Vision (teachervision.com) is a great site.  It used to be free, but now requires membership.  There is a free trial for seven days, but after that the fee is $14.95.\n\nI also find a lot on the About.com site.
