DiscoveryK12 FREE Online Homeschool

Discovery K12 is a free online homeschool & curriculum for children grades K – 12! I discovered this recently & have been going through it all & LOVE what I have been seeing! I love it so much that I decided to use this with M7 & L9 during this upcoming school year.

Discovery K12 offers a traditional, Non-Common Core curriculum that gives students a world-view using today’s cutting-edge technologies. Reading classic literature, writing essays, creating presentations, and conducting research are important aspects to the program. Discovery K12 is a flexible program that allows parents to use all or parts of the curriculum with full control over the instruction. ~Discovery K12 website

They offer 7 standard courses including Language Arts, Reading/Literature, Math, Science, History/Social Studies, Visual/Performing Arts, and Physical Education.

You can start the year with them (Sep 2nd, the day after Labor Day, is the official start date for the DK12 2014-2015 school year). OR, if you are going by your own schedule, like us – we start Aug. 18th, you can use the Past Assignments that are broken up by days 1- 180!

Each day has all of the subjects listed with the assignments. You just click & go! At the end of each day there is a section to email the parents/guardians a summary of what the child has learned that day. It’s a great way to keep track of the lessons  – especially for those who need to keep records.

You can view a Sample Student Account!
