123 Homeschool 4 Me

This website began August 9, 2011 under the name Living Life Intentionally. As our family grew the site morphed from a Mom blog into a homeschool blog sharing our learning activities, it was renamed to 123homeschool4me. Over a decade later, this site has grown beyond my wildest expectations. We have over 2 million pageviews a month from parents, teachers, homeschoolers, librarians, museum staff, and grandparents from all around the globe looking to make learning fun! This education website is now filled with over 1 million pages of FREE printable worksheets to make learning fun for kids of all ages! It has been my hearts desire since the beginning to provide FREE resources for parents, teachers, and homeschoolers. I am thrilled we use ads to cover the costs of running this massive site and pay the bills – keeping free resources for you! Plus, with 18 years of homeschooling experience, raising 6 very different children, and participating in various coops through the years I have lots of things to share!

No matter what brought you here, WELCOME! I’m glad you are here!

Free Homeschool Curriculum

My website is eclectic, like I am. But pretty much everything falls into one of these 4 categories – each with their own subcategories like math, history, science, english, crafts, etc. Everything is carefully organized and arranged conveniently so you can find just what you are looking for – quickly & easily!

  • Thank you is not enough

    Your site is the most amazing and helpful site for me. I teach English in Japan and even though most of my students are teenagers the level of your worksheets is just the right level for my students. I do not get a budget to spend on materials so your site is the best! Learning English in Japan is such a bore for the students, but adding a bit of spice to the currriculum with your worksheets gives my students a desire to actually use English!! Thank you is not enough but really thank you! (Winter Writing Prompts)

First and foremost, I am a child of the risen King! I grew up in Madrid, Spain where my parents served as missionaries. Yep – I speak Spanish fluently!  I met my best friend and husband-to-be in college. We graduated college, got married, and had kids! We’ve been married for over 20 years. We have 3 biological children and 3 treasures adopted from China. Being a mother is my favorite thing I’ve ever done. Don’t get me wrong, we have hard days like everyone else, but these little people bring me such joy and I am so honored I get to be their Mom.

If I’m not workig or teching you will find me in the church choir singing (Alto’s Rule!), teaching in children’s ministry, cooking, playing board games, snuggling with my kids, traveling, gardening, or hanging out with my family.
