I have the best digital homeschool curriculum. Also, look for more tips on my how to homeschool page.
I have a confession to make. Even though the digital age is here, I pine over physical books still.
However, moving overseas certainly had me thinking outside of the box when I had to assess my homeschool library “on the go”.
All homeschool resources and clothes had to fit in two suitcases when we moved to Ecuador. For me, that meant very few physical books and resources.
I scrambled to find resources that were online or downloaded in a digital format so I could print when I moved overseas.
So I put together this digital homeschool curriculum – big ol’ list to use as a resource for you and me.
Some items are free and others cost but I really wanted to put a lot of them in one spot as a reference. Instead of dividing by subject, I divided by age level because many of them have multiple subjects and topics.

Old Fashioned Education.Since buying whatever strikes my fancy is not an option I have decided to seek out as many free online resources as I can find. There are literally thousands from which to choose. Since there’s no way I can use everything available I have chosen to focus mainly on texts in the public domain with minor reference to a few other significantly useful sites.

Thank you so much for sharing these resources. We are in the process of planning on making some changes in how we homeschool. I’m so glad that there are bloggers such as yourself to share these resources like this. I share a lot, but there is still plenty of options that we haven’t looked into or considered through the years. Now we are!
