Answer 1

To find your state laws and local homeschool organizations:        http://www.hslda.org

A few curriculum links:

http://www.abeka.com

http:// www.chalkdust.com

http://www.aop.com

http://www.sonlight.com

http://www.bjupress.com/page/Home

Support group (online)

I highly advice finding your state laws and a local support group first.

Answer 2

Before you get to the inexpensive curriculum, you NEED to check out your state laws on homeschooling. Home School Legal Defense Association is a good place to check. :)

As to the inexpensive curriculums, there are a couple that are free, aside from possibly printing material off.

Old Fashioned Education is the only one that is completely free, grades K-12 that is not government sponsored. It comes with 40 weeks of scheduling for each grade and a page with links to the readings you will need. It is VERY cool. I am using part of it this year for my daughter, and most of it the next. Along with parts of....

Ambleside Online. It's a *mostly* free curriculum. There will be some books that can't be found on-line but must be purchased off-line. The books that must be purchased off-line can be found for a reasonable price, however.

There's a Yahoo Group called 3RHomeschooling, a support group for parents that use these curriculums and other "classical" education formats. The group LOVES to share free-finds with each other, as well. ;)

You are also welcome to visit my blog, at which I have many links to free things as well. I ask that you keep any comments peaceful, however! It's not a debate blog. :)
