Homeschool Tip of the Day

Check out Scholastic!  This might just be the best resource I've found online yet. And that's saying a lot.

The math mysteries are awesome.

The "writing with writers workshop"  is incredible--some of the best writers teaching writing in their specialties (like Jane Yolen teaching writing myths). And your student can publish online at the end of the process. (http://teacher.scholastic.com/writewit/index.htm)

You should go see. I could practically homeschool my  kids from this site alone.

Oh, yeah! I remember reading about this site when it was first launched; I'm glad you found it. Hmm . . . come to think of it, I guess I ought to forward you any good sites about children and reading as I find them. Here's one for you: Kidsmomo. It's a well-organized book review site for kids, with lots of fun features like the Mystery Book Theater (short films that give clues to the identification of a book, which viewers then have to guess).
