Wanted: Free school type sites.

Does any one have any school type sites that give free things in the post?

I have 3 home schooler friends that do not have internet access and I would like to apply for them. But it would be better if they were postal freebies.

Thanks in advance.

    Anything basically!
    As home schoolers, we have to pay for all our school stuff, be it pencils, card, history info to what ever.
    So anything that helps us on our way is great.
    My friends don't have internet access so I like to do what I can for them.

    We are after anything....especially postable things!

    this provides learning resources but you will need to print them off

    i believe there are quite a few of this sort of website where you can print things off or do learning on the pc special programs like they use in schools but unless they have pc i dont think yo will find much

  • for heaps of 'classroom' go to: www.sparklebox.co.uk
    I can probably write a really long list for you but sadly they will mostly be internet based. I really like sparklebox as they email you what you order.

    poundland: www.poundland.co.uk is a great place to buy things, I know there are heaps of stores over East London, not sure about anywhere elsde though. They do huge packs of Pens, pensils, crayons, and other resources.

    I have also used colouring in books a photocopier and some imagination to make resources.... If you or your friends want any help please PM me...

    I'm a teacher so Im used to making resources from nearly no money at all.

    Good luck

    "I have 3 home schooler friends that do not have internet access"

    That seems rather odd these days.:confused:
