At our most recent homeschool meetup, the homee(s) and I shared the resources we’re currently using for math and science.

The resources shared are as diverse as the women using them.

I’m excited to add some of these resources to my curriculum.

I hope you too find these resources helpful as you plan for the upcoming school year.
