My 4-year old likes to go to PBSKIDS.ORG but I dont really find it educational
its more entertaining….
I was wondering which websites would help him with his alphabet and numbers, letter recognition and such…
any known FREE websites??
thanks 
That’s tricky because many 4 year olds aren’t proficient enough at the computer to play more than simple games. For a higher level of learning you might just want to buy some workbooks. But try nickjr.com or noggin.com. Also sesamestreet.org. Also go to your library website because they usually have some links or games. But my absolute favorite is not free. It is the School Zone Pencil Pal series. They have CD’s for about 10 dollars for each grade level. For real learning in a fun way these are great.
do you have any other websites that are free that he might also enjoys?
my son enjoy
www.taxpaint.org
www.starfall.com
These videos have been really helpful for teaching my kids.

Yeah, so…I’ve gotten bored of my little circle of websites lately and would like to know if there are any educational websites (for someone who’s an adult now) where I can still learn a lot of basic things. I like Yahoo! answers because I seem to learn new words on here all the time but….I need something else now 
Even if it’s like a geeky learning website community for geeks who just want to actually be on there just to learn new things.

my neice is loosing her interest in reading books ,is there a site which teaches u the animated way
Yes, go to funbrain.com and go to the arcade! They also have reading activities along with math. Hope it helps!
I’m looking for websites for a project for work. I’m especially interested in websites related to math, social studies, science, reading, and other academic areas. Also, they should be geared towards students in the United States
One of the websites I know is ‘exambank.com’
You should check with your school to see if your school has an account with them
I am in a school in Canada
I’m looking specifically for websites about science, social studies, math, reading, and other academic areas; as well as health and nutrition. I’m looking for sites geared towards middle and high school students in the United States.
This is for a website I need to make at work and it will be geared towards American teenagers, so please don’t give me links to British sites.

-although that is really for GCSE’s
I want some extra websites or something to do for fun because I am bored. I am in 8th grade but I am very smart and might need something on a 9th grade level.
I would start with some assessment testing online, so you and your parents can see exactly where you are.
Go to: www.k12.com (Its FREE)
Also, for printables, go to www.edhelper.com
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this website!! I homeschool my 2 kids and I have a step daughter who goes to public school who is in the 8th grade, but like you is ahead. So I paid for the additional access. It has been well worth the $20.00!! The free portion is great but a little limited. If your parents get the subscription, they can personalize the printables and leaves for endless options! I have binders full of work. My two little ones are 2-3 grades ahead and they LOVE to do school work. So I am always sure to have plenty on hand. Another great site is www.tlsbooks.com and www.abcteach.com.
Hope this helps! Give yourself a BIG pat on the back for stepping up and not letting boredom take over! In ten years you will look back and really appreciate the drive you had in your younger years!
My children love to use the computer and love to do work on the computer. I want some really good websites that have easy to use, fun and educational programs. What are some you have used, and why! Thanks!!!

Two very good sites; they do require a yearly membership fee of $20.00:
http://enchantedlearning.com/
http://www.abcteach.com/
You can check them out for free, and have limited access, but to be able to print all the great stuff they offer you do need to be a member.
A great site to get computer software for only the price of shipping and handling is:
http://www.planetcdrom.com/free-homeschool/
Personally we prefer board games; we use them both for learning, and family fun.
I would recommend trying these over computers; we use both, but the computer is limited.
http://www.educationallearninggames.com/educational-board-games.asp
use the search engines like Google.
My son is 8 and he likes the games on here, although some are a bit easy for him but they are still good. http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks1bitesize/numeracy/
