The first step to using Old Fashioned Education's Free Online K-12 is the getting started guide.  It's simple!

1. Choose a plan that fits your family - Choose 1 volume per program per year for a complete curriculum.
2. Gather the booklist for each program - links are included, however we offer some parent choices.  
3. Get started learning together with our day-by-day lesson plans or make your own.

Now, what about those parent choices?  In this chapter of our teaching series, we'll look at each program's curriculum choices and offer guidance to help you choose the best curriculum for your family.

Charlotte Mason suggested that children use a Book of Centuries, which is a timeline in a notebook. A timeline is a wonderful way to see history and its connections across all subjects. You can use our free or printed version with all three programs of study. Here's how!

I'm pleased to announce that Individual Study: Grade 1 Teaching Guide, covering Math, Science, and Language Arts, is now published and available for those who want day-by-day lesson plans.  

Today, we are sharing the complete list of Arthur Scott Bailey's Nature Stories from his Tuck-Me-In Tales Series with free book links. Nature stories are a wonderful way to add living books to your science study. These delightful stories can enhance the Enjoying Science Together Series, our living science course for grades 1-12, or can simply be enjoyed, as suggested, for tucking-in.

Pour a cup of tea, and enjoy the Parent's Review, a FREE quarterly resource. Issue 2 is available here. ​

What should a daily homeschool schedule look like? Simple!  With Old Fashioned Education's FREE online K-12 curriculum, you do just 3 lessons per day - one per program for a complete curriculum. Here's a look at our daily homeschool schedule + free printable!

With our curriculum booklists, parents have options. For example, you choose your own math curriculum. As a parent, you know best what fits your child's need and your family's budget. Old Fashioned Education will list our pick with a short review and the price per page (below). This list will grow over time.

If you are hosting a Co-op (in your home, church, library, park, etc.), you can list it here. Our policy is that all communities are free (but your co-op members can vote together for annual due price such as $10/year if there is a need). ​Copy and paste the format below and replace the bold with your information.
