After years of lending/giving (or other people digging them out of the recycle bin) to other teachers, she's putting them on line for any other teachers to use--they're for home school, private or public school.
The page is in the building process, so stop by more than once.
The site is

Great idea, that stuff is always good to use. My wife recently retired (full time) but is still working as an academic specialist.
A lot of the "teacher" stuff she kept and still is able to use it in her (hourly) new job.
I started volunteering to teach algebra (to 4th and 5th graders) who are in a "high ability class". The lessons go up to freshman level.
Amazing how smart some kids are.
I'm always looking for ideas to teach elementary kids.
I don't have any teacher training but I do like math so I signed up to help. Now they want to expand the program to more schools but (of course) they want volunteer teachers.
It's a lot of fun but the pay sux.
