Library.
Homeschooling co-op.
Book exchange(altho it might cost you some books in return)
I vote for library, we get a ton there, we even requested a saxon algebra book and renewed it. Had it for six months...until my son mastered algebra, then returned it.

Both our school district and county department of education (in Southern CA) gave me textbooks (at no cost...I just need to return them at the end of the year) for homeschooling my 7th grader. Purists would call it "Independent Study", since I set up lesson plans and meet with a teacher at the county once / month to review my plans and show my 7th grade son's progress. We are brand new to homeschooling, but so far this set-up is working great! You may want to check with your local school district as well as your county department of education (if you have one). As others have mentioned the library is also a great source, as is the Internet. There are a lot of lessons available on the Internet. Search by topic and you'll be rewarded!

You might want to check the website for your local school district. In my city, you can borrow books from your neighborhood school in order to homeschool; you are responsible for purchasing any workbooks that go along with the texts. I have never chosen this option, but some homeschoolers do.
Also, there is an organization that gives out free used homeschool curriculum; you have missed the August 15 deadline for the fall, but perhaps they will have another winter deadline. The link is below:

I hope this is helpful.

you would be stunned at how plenty progression he will make one-on-one. in all threat you may start up by specializing in interpreting and math, because those are the matters that somewhat verify what grade point your toddler is at. i observed somebody pronounced that your son could take the SAT at domicile, proctored, by way of BJUP. i'd prefer to characteristic that he could take the Iowa try at domicile by way of BJUP as long as there is somebody with a bachelor's degree in something registered with them who will supply it to him. in case you or your husband or a close-by buddy or relative has a bachelor's degree, this would guard the sorting out. additionally, the try will degree your son's overall performance against different youngsters his age around the rustic. it won't instruct the place the final seventh grader 'could' be, purely the place the final seventh grader fairly IS. I at the instant stay in a rural section the place what you're describing is the norm for a seventh grader - some third grade training. I moved from a plenty larger section the place you would be fortunate to locate a seventh grader with a third grade training. So the college your son at the instant attends could be extra favourite than you think of. The final time my youngsters took the Iowa checks advance into on the top of 5th and 6th grades, and the 5th grader [who advance into 9 on the time] scored at a 12.3 point, meaning the final extreme college senior in his 0.33 month of instructions would have made a similar score, and my 6th grader [who advance into 10 years previous] scored 12.9. It advance right into a tragic assertion on the educational levels in this u . s . that a 10 yo who had performed 6th grade made a similar grade on a 6th grade try that a graduating senior would have made. besides, i'd prefer to correctly known what the outcomes would be whilst/in case you have your son examined. it may be extra suitable than you think of.

I do not believe that you may be able to get everything totally free, but give this web site a go;

I don't know about free, but you could always contact your local public school and see which books they use for their seventh graders. Then, look them up on Amazon.com and buy them on their marketplace for really cheap. Another option would be to contact a local college's education department. I used to work (work study) in my college's education department and the profs were always getting textbooks for middle school and high school sent to them in the mail as trials. They catalogued them and threw them in the library or kept them for themselves. They may be willing to let you have or use theirs.
