Free Stuff

I enjoy free stuff. Especially if it has to do with benefiting my kiddos. When I first started homeschooling in 2004 it was the middle of the school year and I was searching the Internet for anything I could get to start up our new shall I say adventure. I found so many things. As I was going through my folder today I found a resource that I had used a great deal of time before I started using a computer based curriculum. Easy Test Maker (ETM) was one of  my favorite tools. It has changed and improved a great deal over the years too. It is free, it saves your test online for you and the options for types of questions meets many kinds of needs. My little people are memorizing Psalm 23 this week for their Children of Light class and i was able to paste the passage into ETM, put brackets around the words for the word box and print them off.

Some other oldies but goodies I have used:
