Freshwater Fred's Lending Library





Have you heard about Freshwater Fred's Lending Library?  This is a great resource for educators, including home educators!  Here is some information from their website:

Freshwater Fred's Lending Library includes approximately 1,100 educational videos, software programs and curriculum - and the collection is always growing. Explore topics such as biology, zoology, anatomy, physics, math, history, geography, the arts and environmental science.

There is no charge for Lending Library materials. Freshwater Fred's Lending Library is brought to you by Hoosier Energy and its Environmental Education Center, located at the Turtle Creek Reservoir in Sullivan County, Ind.

Materials are available to educators in Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin for 30-day intervals. Renewals are subject to demand. Educators are limited to 10 items at any one time.


We have found this a great resource for fun educational computer games!  You can check it out here.

There is no charge to use the items.  They even send you a prepaid mailer to return the materials when you are done!  It's super easy.  Our favorites are the Reader Rabbit games.
