Placekicker, or simply kicker (PK or K), is the player in American and Canadian football who is responsible for the kicking duties of field goals, extra points. In many cases, the placekicker also serves as the team's kickoff specialist (KOS) or, more rarely, punter(P), as well.

Specialized role of kicker (vs punter)[edit source | editbeta]
The kicker initially was not a specialized role. Until the 1960s, the kicker was almost always doubled at another position on the roster, George Blanda, Frank Gifford and Paul Hornung being some of the more prominent examples of players who were stars at other positions as well as being known for their kicking abilities. As the era of "two-way" players gave way to increased specialization, teams would employ a specialist at the punter or kicker position. Ben Agajanian, who started his career in the late 1940s, was the first place-kicking specialist in the NFL, playing for several teams.[1] Because of the difference in techniques needed, to avoid leg fatigue, and to reduce the risk of injury, on the professional level most teams employ separate players to handle the jobs. The placekicker usually will only punt when the punter is injured, and vice-versa. (One player often handles both jobs in the Canadian Football League, which has smaller active rosters than in the NFL.) A professional team will occasionally even have a "kickoff specialist" who handles only the kickoffs and serves as a backup to the kicker who handles field goals and extra points. This is typically done to further protect a premier point-scoring kicker from injury or if he, while accurate, does not have sufficient distance on kickoffs.
Amateur teams (e.g., college or high school) often do not differentiate between placekickers and punters, have different players assume different placekicking duties (for example, one person handles kicking off, another kicks long field goals, and another kicks from shorter distances), or have regular position players handle kicking duties. The last option is quite common on high school teams, when the best athletes are often the best kickers. Before the modern era of pro football, this was also the case for professional teams, particularly when most placekicks were still made in the "straight on" style outlined below.
Salary and team standing[edit source | editbeta]
Placekickers and punters are often the lowest paid starters on professional teams, although proven placekickers sometimes earn over $1 million per year in salary.
In addition, kickers are at times ostracized by other players due to the perceived non-physical and limited nature of their duties, as well as the fact they often are allowed to leave practice before the rest of the team.[1]
It is not uncommon for a placekicker to be one of the smallest members of their team. However, The New York Times in 2011 wrote that NFL kickers had adopted year-round weight training and strict diets.[2] Sebastian Janikowski that year was a 6-foot-2-inch (1.88 m) and 250-pound (110 kg) kicker. Kicker Rob Bironas, who is 6 feet (1.8 m) and 205 pounds (93 kg), noted, "I might be bigger than some wide receivers and cornerbacks."[2]
The presence of foreign born-and-raised players in the highest levels of gridiron football has largely been limited to placekickers—occasionally even coming from outside the traditional American high school and/or college football systems—and all but one of the women to have played men's American football were placekickers while the lone exception was a placekick holder. Notably Tom Landry recruited several soccer players from Latin America, such as Efren Herrera and Raphael Septien, to compete for the job of placekicker for the Dallas Cowboys. These anecdotes increase the perception of the placekicker as an outsider.
As of 2012, only three kickers have been elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame: George Blanda, Lou Groza and Jan Stenerud, and among those three, Stenerud is the only one who did not also play another position.
Nevertheless, due to their duties in kicking both field goals and extra points placekickers are usually responsible for scoring more points than any other player on a team.[3] The top 25 players in NFL history in career scoring are all placekickers.[4]
Janikowski of the Oakland Raiders, is the NFL's highest paid kicker.[citation needed]
Kicking style[edit source | editbeta]
Rian Lindell prepares for a practice field goal kick.Placekickers today are all "soccer-style" kickers, approaching the ball from several steps to the left of it [for a right-footed kicker] and several steps behind and striking the ball with the instep of the foot. Before this method of kicking was popularized in the 1960s by Pete Gogolak and his younger brother Charlie, the first placekicker to be drafted in the first round,[citation needed] every place kicker was a "straight on" kicker, a style that requires the use of a special shoe that is extremely rigid and has a flattened and slightly upturned toe.[5] In the straight on style, also known as "straight-toe" style, the kicker approaches the ball from directly behind, rather than from the side, and strikes the ball with the toe. Straight on kickers are relatively uncommon in college football due to the control and power disadvantages, but a very small percentage of high school football players still kick straight-toe. The last full-time straight on placekicker in the NFL was Mark Moseley who retired from the Cleveland Browns after the 1986 season; Dirk Borgognone, who set records with the straight toe in high school, tried but failed to make several NFL teams in the early 1990s.
Shoes[edit source | editbeta]
Placekickers in the modern game usually wear specialized shoes (soccer boots), but in very rare circumstances some prefer to kick barefoot. Tony Franklin was one such barefoot kicker, who played in Super Bowls for the Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots. Another was Rich Karlis, who once shared two kicking records - the record for longest field goal in Super Bowl history, kicking a 47-yard field goal in Super Bowl XXI and also for the most field goals in a game, seven for Minnesota in 1989, tying Jim Bakken's record of the time, a record since broken by Rob Bironas.[citation needed] More recently,[when?] Englishman Rob Hart kicked barefoot during his 7-year NFL Europe career. John Baker also used the style in the 1990s in the Canadian Football League, as did José Cortéz in the XFL.
A unique shoe was worn by New Orleans Saints kicker Tom Dempsey; Dempsey had a deformed kicking foot that left him with a flat kicking surface at the front of his foot, and he wore a shoe that accommodated it. After Dempsey kicked a record-setting 63-yard field goal using the special shoe, the league instituted a rule change establishing standards for kicking shoes. This eventually ended Dempsey's kicking career.
Barefoot kickers are banned in the vast majority of high school games, due to a rule by the National Federation of State High School Associations, which requires all players to wear shoes. Massachusetts and Texas play by NCAA rules,[6] and therefore barefoot kickers are legal in those two states.[citation needed]
Kicking stance[edit source | editbeta]
Almost all soccer-style kickers share a similar approach to the ball: knees bent, leaning forward at the waist, taking three steps, and then proceeding to kick the ball. Examples of unusual approaches include Paul Edinger, who stood backwards, and spun around 180 degrees to kick the ball, and Donald Igwebuike, who played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, took a step backwards before approaching the ball.

Results! Inoki Genome Federation (IGF) held its traditional Bom-Ba-Ye year-end extravaganza earlier this morning (Dec. 31, 2013) at Ryogoku Kokugikan in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan, featuring wins by Shinya Aoki, Satoshi Ishii and Minowaman.
Upset! Bob Sapp has defeated Fedor Emelianenko in Japan en route to a championship win at the 17-man celebrity arm wrestling tournament in "The Land of the Rising Sun," one that also included Kevin Randleman and Kazushi Sakuraba, among others.
Video: Watch Spiderman vs. Batman & Robin in epic mixed martial arts (MMA) fight as part of the UK's "Hardest Man" combat sports promotion in Southampton, England, featuring a surprise appearance by The Riddler. This is real life!
Look back at who -- and what -- were the highlights of an action-packed season abroad with our 2013 "Asian MMA Awards," featuring ONE FC, EVOLVE MMA, Hyun Gyu Lim, Caol Uno, "Minowaman" and much more. Who was the "Fighter of the Year?"
Shinya Aoki is one of Asia's biggest mixed martial arts (MMA) stars, but would he still be a household name if he moved to UFC? Aoki explained in an interview why there is "more to gain" by staying with ONE FC, and why he turned down the UFC offer.
In an attempt to raise awareness for the protection of women in Brazil, the proposed "man vs. woman" Shooto fight in Brazil is now off, according to reports. Osiris Maia, member of the CBMMA, confirmed that this fight was never real to begin with.
Shooto 45 will indeed feature a controversial bout between Emerson Falcao against Juliana Velasquez this Friday (Dec. 20, 2013) night in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The "Man vs. Woman" bout, however, will include modified rules: No knees or elbows.
Phil Baroni slammed Ben Askren earlier this week, petitioning for a rumble with the former Bellator welterweight champion after "Funky" was signed by ONE FC a few weeks ago. After a war of words, the "New York Bad Ass" is willing to take the fight.
UFC co-founder Campbell McClaren helps launch first-ever Spanish language mixed martial arts (MMA) competition reality series, "Combate Americas," which is set premiere in early 2014 on mun2 cable network with help from Daddy Yankee, among others.
Man vs. woman mixed martial arts (MMA) fight? It's something Shooto wants to make happen for event 45 with Emerson Falcao (0-1) taking on Juliana Velasquez (0-0) this Friday night (Dec. 20, 2013) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Spughy brings up another point-- one of the reasons we don't want to know is that we would like to keep things here relatively gender neutral. Through childhood, even. Not just in terms of clothes, but that's a bonus IMO. I DON'T WANT CLOTHES. I'm going to be sooooo picky about clothes
<-----wannabe fashionista, gender-neutrality proponent, is looking forward to spending very little $$ on cute clothes at the thrift store.
Anyway, I'm hoping that not knowing/telling the sex will at least cut down on the needless clothes spending, esp. frilly/impractical stuff and super-gendered stuff. We need/"need" a lot of non-clothing things for this babe, so I'd rather other people's $$ go that way.

- I illustrated this piece a good while back when working on the Clockwork Orange piece. I had every intention of using her for a gig poster when the right band came along. I started to get very protective of it and it never "fit" right with a band. So, I decided to make it into an art print. The phrase above comes from Friedrich Schiller's 1798 poem "Song of the Bell". It is latin for "I call the living. I mourn the dead." It is a traditional phrase to be inscribed on church bells. This bell brings people to church for mass & marks the passing of a loved one for funerals. I like the concept this phrase creates because the art is of an attractive woman (*calling the living) and the visible skeleton (mourning the dead).

Very interesting interview, I hope this gets National Play. Mr. Cook sound like a sincere fellow, but my problem is his claim that he has not seen or heard any racism at any rallies. Is he blind?
- kid said...
You're a joke! My television must be in the "Twilight Zone" or something.Maybe you missed the machine guns they brought out to greet the President. Maybe it was the signs saying that they wanted to kill the President. Maybe it's the paramilitary manuals they pass out at Tea Baggers events telling the volk how to get their country back.I guess the museum shooting, the three dead policemen in Pittsburgh didn't happen.
'N-Word' Sign Dogs Would-Be Tea Party Leader
Dale Robertson, a Tea Party activist who operates TeaParty.org, is getting stung for an old photo — taken at the Feb. 27, 2009 Tea Party in Houston — in which he holds a sign reading "Congress = Slaveowner, Taxpayer = Niggar."
After the ResistNet listerv promoted "Liberty Concerts" to be held by TeaParty.org, a source passed on this photo of Robertson:
Dale Robertson is a proven racist and a memeber of the Tea Party movement.

Glasgow, Ky. power chief takes Fortnightly to task.
"The great obstacle of man is the illusion of knowledge," says Daniel Boorstin, distinguished American historian and Librarian of Congress emeritus.
It is what we think we know that keeps us from making progress toward discovering new certainties. The electric utilities of today have a lot in common with the sailors who accompanied Christopher Columbus. They stand on the shores of a new continent gazing into the unexplored wilderness of competition, paralyzed by fear due to their "illusion of knowledge."
When Columbus sailed off on the morning of Aug. 3, 1492, he was discarding the conclusions of the orthodox Christian authorities. After four trips to the New World he died believing he had been exploring the East Coast of Asia. It turns out his main discovery was the discovery of ignorance (em European man's ignorance of the world. The Glasgow Electric Plant Board and several other municipal utilities have embarked on similar voyages of discovery. Old dogma is difficult to overcome, but if all electric utilities pay attention to the main discoveries of these voyages, they can cast off the ignorant ramblings of modern economic and business authorities and discover a new product, infotricity.
Infotricity is the term we have given to the product we have been offering at the EPB. It is a combination of electric power, cable television, telephony and high speed LAN and Internet services. It is a mixture of electrons and bits. It is a complicated and unexpected set of interrelations. It has unimagined consequences and possibilities. It is another New World.
The modern day "authorities" have written and said much about the New World we have discovered in Glasgow. The Cable Telecommunications Association (CATA) has even created a site on the Internet dedicated to spreading its particularly slanted misinformation about us. Even magazines and periodicals that our industry trusts implicitly like Public Utilities Fortnightly have published articles spreading the illusion (See "Munis Find Cable TV a Costly Business," by Len Grzanka, Sept. 15, 1998, Public Utilities Fortnightly, p. 34).
When the EPB decided to construct a broadband network and offer entertainment and telecommunications services, we did not plan on immediate revenue gains from these new products. Instead, we planned on rediscovering our initial mission of providing and simplifying technology for our customers. We looked out upon a landscape where the possibilities of services from new telecommunications technologies and the realities of the actual services being offered were not even in the same field of view. Similarly, we saw that the rates being charged when these services were offered were outrageously high. We set out upon a voyage to discover ways to rectify these images and we have learned much.
One of our early discoveries was that our existing lineman, accountants, engineers and other employees were plenty smart enough to design, construct, operate and maintain a broadband network capable of delivering a flow of bits every bit as robust as the network they already were operating to supply a flow of electrons. I know several engineers will correct me and

Forensic Anthropology may be defined as the application of the principles of skeletal biology to individual, or in some instances large numbers of, otherwise unidentified human remains in a modern or contemporary medico-legal context. Generally the forensic anthropologist is asked to deduce two elementary, but often complex questions - who is it? And, what happened?
Anthony B. Falsetti, Ph.D. a Board Certified Forensic Anthropologist, Associate Professor of Anthropology, Director of the C.A. Pound Human Identification Laboratory and Co-Director of the William R. Maples Center for Forensic Medicine, Department of Pathology, Immunology, and Laboratory Medicine, University of Florida.
After establishing that the remains under investigation are indeed human, the forensic anthropologist can begin to address the first question. This is accomplished by reconstructing the biological profile of the unknown individual by synthesizing a number of multifaceted and interrelated biological issues before ascertaining the sex, ancestry, age, living stature and any antemortem characteristics from the skeleton. Antemortem characteristics, or individuating traits, would include dental restorations, healed fractures, arthritis, or perhaps some underlying pathological condition that leaves evidence in bone. These features, combined with the basic biological profile, are passed along to the medical examiner, investigator, or law enforcement in order to assist in the identification (i.e., who is it?). The second inquiry may be addressed by a careful examination of the decedent for evidence of perimortem injury or trauma. Perimortem trauma may include patterned fractures from blunt force damage, evidence of gun shot injury, or sharp force defects such as stab or incised wounds.
Furthermore, forensic anthropologists may examine clues found in association with the remains to address such issues as the location of the body, the time since death, and whether or not a body has been moved. Postmortem changes in human remains, often academically referred to as taphonomy, have always been of interest to biological anthropologists in the study of human fossil remains. The process of fossilization can influence the interpretation of the context from which human remains are discovered. In the forensic or contemporary setting such postmortem changes occur more rapidly and might include trauma due to animal predation, insect activity and succession, evidence of bleaching or staining due to corrosives or natural environmental change. Burials, both formal and clandestine, are associated with unique postmortem changes and thus of interest to the forensic anthropologist. The characteristics of these burials may influence interpretations surrounding the circumstances of an individual's death. Research at the University of Tennessee's "Body Farm" has generated both scientific and public interest. The analyses, educational programs, and basic research performed on human remains at this facility have provided a wealth of information on the postmortem interval, or time since death, and have been an invaluable resource for the death investigation community.
The application of human skeletal anatomy to determine identity and prior insults, or injury, is not new. Dr. Thomas Dwight (1843-1911), the anatomist who succeeded Oliver Wendell Holmes,Sr. at Harvard, was perhaps the first to specially address the issue of deriving someone's biological profile from skeletal remains. His scientific research acknowledged the utility of anthropological or more specifically, osteological methods, in a medical-legal context. Dr. Ales Hrdlicka (1869-1943) and T. Dale Stewart (1901-1997), both of the US National Museum of Natural History- Smithsonian Institution, performed osteological examinations of skeletal remains for various state and federal agencies during their tenure. Original research and works by others were collated and presented by Dr. Wilton M. Krogman (1903-1987) in his text, The Human Skeleton in Forensic Medicine, 1962. This is the first full-length textbook devoted to forensic applications of skeletal research and formally places the study of human remains within the context of the legal system. Dr. T. Dale Stewart's book, Essentials of Forensic Anthropology, 1979 is also noteworthy for its content and the formal use of the term, forensic anthropology in the title. During the 1960's and early 1970's physical anthropologists began attending the American Academy of Forensic Science's annual meeting and became members of the pathology and biology section of the Academy. In 1973, a formal physical anthropology section was formed and a process of certification in forensic anthropology was instituted in 1978.
Contemporary influential forensic anthropologists within the past 30 years include: Drs. William Bass, Ellis Kerley (1924-1998), Clyde Snow, Mildred Trotter (1899-1991), Walter Birkby, George Gill, Stanley Rhine, Jane Buikstra, Sheilagh Brooks, Douglas Ubelaker, Douglas Owsley, and William Maples (1937-1997) to name a few. These individuals have traversed the rivers between academia, research, and public service by training students, conducting scientific inquiries, collecting data, publishing articles and books, while providing osteological analyses to the medico-legal community.
The definition of forensic anthropology nearly always include or incorporates terminology referencing the application of skeletal analysis and interpretation to the medico-legal process or judicial matters. More often than not this involves legal resolution to either the identity of the individual, his or her mechanism of death, or the circumstances surrounding the death. In most states the appointed medical examiner or investigator determines the prescribed, usually by legal mandate, 'cause of death' and the circumstances surrounding the death, or it's 'manner'. Meanwhile, the forensic anthropologist typically serves as a consultant who works directly with the medical examiner and his or her investigators in the process of identifying the individual, recovering skeletal remains, and providing opinion on the origin of injuries to skeletal tissue. Thus, the anthropologist does not 'determine the cause of death'. Instead, he or she speaks to the mechanism of skeletal injuries which may or may not have contributed to an individual's death, as well as provides evidence pertaining to the circumstances surrounding the death itself.
The elements which constitute a biological profile - sex, age, ancestry, and stature are not determined by mere sleight of hand on the part of the forensic anthropologist. Instead, each is constructed through intensive research and development, both methodologically and technically. Within this sphere there have been many advances in the past several years with the advent of 3-D data collection methods and the associated statistics. A more complete and defensible understanding of the mechanisms of injury due to sharp and blunt force trauma and even gun shot wounds has formed the basis for new research and modeling of human bony tissues. The forensic anthropologist as bio-mechanist is an area within modern skeletal biology that continues to grow and develop.
However, first and foremost, one must not forget that the forensic anthropologist's primary goal is to use his or her scientific and investigative skills to serve the community and its needs. As such, forensic anthropologists have a prominent role not only locally, but globally as well. They have assisted in identifying unknown or unidentified victims of such national tragedies as the Oklahoma City Bombing, World Trade Center disaster, the Thailand Tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and multiple aircraft incidents worldwide. Moreover, they have played a role in human rights work, assisting in the identification and exhumation of mass graves from around the world. International teams of forensic anthropologists are especially active in South American countries and include; Argentina, Peru, Guatemala, Chile and many others. The effort of non-governmental agencies such as Physicians for Human Rights has been tremendous for their recognition of the critical role anthropologists have in the death investigative process in war crimes and instances of genocide.
The basic educational requirements to be a practicing forensic anthropologist are as follows:
Nearly 80 to 90 percent of all forensic anthropologists are currently employed by either academic or research institutions, including the National Museum of Natural History - Smithsonian Institutions, though some are employed full-time as practicing forensic anthropologists (see JPAC-CIL, OAFME). A few work directly with and for medical examiners and usually perform other duties for that office. There are currently 75 "board certified" forensic anthropologists in the world.

Garrett, I kind of wanted the characters in the back to only be in partial silhouette -- here's my 2-minute rebound to show you what I mean. But I can't remember if this is a very specific scene in the movie. Something about them being offset slightly feels more visually compelling to me.

"Perhaps it's impossible to wear an identity without becoming what you pretend to be."
The book Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card is the heart wrenching tale of a young boy whose innocence is dwindled away by force of the government and adults around him. The renowned novel has made a comeback since it's first publication in the eighties due to the release of the movie written about it staring Asa Butterfield and Harrison Ford.

bat flying...
Nice updates! that superlady looks awesome! great work with getting that floating in the air feel on her, only crit I have is that her head seems abit small. I also think that Red Riding Hood character looked better before you added the background, It dosn't really fit into the scene because you have adapted the values for the white background. I used to do the same, but then I started to always paint the backgrounds first . Great work on batman too, though the cape looks a bit too stiff.

your crits are most precious! well, actually a few things that you said, i already had them in my guilty conscience. the one thing you've said about the back ground is really important for me. I was trying to find out what the problem really was. i'll work more on it now. thankyou so much. really important advice. i'll work on the cape too. i think its also ruining the composition.Nice updates! that superlady looks awesome! great work with getting that floating in the air feel on her, only crit I have is that her head seems abit small.

a crappy study of my cloth lunch bag. dont ask...
under observation: a plastic bag with a bottle in it.
doing great!
next step is to try taking one of that type of study a step further, try to blend the colours to get the smooth transitions in the areas that have them, but keep some transitions abrupt when its really like that.
Really awesome sketches as always! reminds me that I should draw more from mind too
Sketchbook -------- Blog
really embarrassed about the anatomy... but i AM working on it! honest!
toy boss… a character i came up with. still a WORK IN PROGRESS
a caricature of some body a client wanted...
nice hat?
moleskine page...
hey man youre doing awesome! great work on the toyboss and these characters! that last hat is amazing. you're really working hard on these, i shows. mechangel girl, toyboss and mechahat, continue along these lines you are rocking it
and your anatomy skills have already noticeably improved, from the batman up to the knight on the horse
the plastic bag studies could use some help. try to simplify it before going into details. thats probably all i can say
Lovely work, your value studies in pencil are very strong.
Wow, many updates around here!
I like your digital work in the caricature and the toy boss a lot. they may miss some contrasts, but I like the clear colours. Not bad as a basic for more to come =) Regarding the still lives you may could take some more time. Observe the colours more and how the edges work. I know it's not the fun stuff, but your personal work will improve a lot if you can use experiences from the studies.
aks9 thanks man! reading that feels awesome! yep, i've been trying to improve. i havent done much digital, and need to do alot more. but there's one excersize i really need to do, and that is custom brushes. i'v got to put in more of that. thanks for the kind words!
James Thomas yes i know. I'v really left it in a very initial stage. i wanted to attempt an exersize where i wanted to bring out the texture of the object using solid brushes. to get a look close to reality, i need to put in alot more time. but you ARE absolutely right. thanks!
CarmenJudy Carmen, getting a compliment from you is a big pat on the back! you are such an amazing artist your self.
Valyavande oh yes, i need to put in ALOT more time in to my paintings. that's exactly my biggest flaw. i just try to do stuff too quickly. like the toyboss, i really want to give it a very rough metallic feel. so i'm collecting some refs to see how that is done. i just posted on your thread about the solidness of brushwork. i try to get that alot, but i need to do alot of studies to get there. thankyou so much!
a few more while passing time before getting off from work...
Nice sketchbook. Think your pencil rendering could use a bit of work, it looks rather messy IMO. Still, you're doing pretty well, and I adore the blue woman's face, you've captured her expression well.
Umbravita yep. you most certainly are right. i think i dont put alot of time into my pieces. which is a bad habit. plus some times i'm trying to copy some really good artists and end up not really getting there
thankyou so much!
quick study on photoshop.
karachi beach. just finished. almost 1 hour. photoshop.
speed paint. kaghan valley. pakistan.
nude study.
i totally fucked up the colors. too late at night to go on. need to sleeeeeeeppp....
posting the steps too...
mountain trail with process. photoshop.
just a sketch i made while waiting for the line to end at the cng pump
wow, love that last sketch! great studies and your landscapes are awesome, they have great atmospheric feel to them.
Sketchbook -------- Blog
the last post is cool
and I like your pictures with steps
The mountain trail picture, you maybe started with details too early...

Complete, All Free Curriculum
What this is…
This is my children's school. I am putting their assignments online so that they can work independently and so that I have the assignments saved for their younger siblings. Grade levels and courses include 180 days of homeschool lessons and assignments. It covers reading, writing, grammar, spelling, vocabulary, math, history/social studies/geography, science, Spanish, Bible, computer, music, art, PE/health, and logic. It uses only free materials found on the internet.
This site holds preschool (getting ready 1), kindergarten (getting ready 2), and first through eighth. Grade levels include all of the English, math, computer and logic. I have also finished three years of all of the other subjects. These are called "program years." Year 4′s theme is modern history, physics and chemistry. Year 1′s theme is ancient history and biology. Year 2 has early American history and zoology for the theme. Year 3 should be ready in 2014 with earth science and geography and cultures as the theme.
When choosing a level, look at the "reading" assignments to decide. Then you only have to choose which program year to study.
Your child just goes to Day 1 on his or her level (found in the sidebar) and starts clicking through the assignments! That's all!
And yes, it's all free. You'll need paper, pencil, etc. and some minor supplies if you choose to do the experiments and art projects, but all of the reading materials, etc. are all free and online.
My hope is to enable families to continue homeschooling no matter their life circumstances. A sister site, All-in-One Highschool, holds the high school courses that are being made.
You can read more about the curriculum on the About and How To pages. You can also see if your questions have been answered on the FAQ page.

This is so cool! Thank you so much for sharing all of your hard work with us!!
This is amazing! What a bless ing you are to families!
Thank you from a new HS family in Australia. Your website and curriculum have been such a blessing.
Can I get a password? This is an amazing curriculum! My daughter is now a confident reader!!
I love this! I'm using various lessons for my 6 kids! thank you
You are welcome. I'll be using it with my six kids too
How easy is this to use with 5 different children on 4 different levels.
The only hard part would be if you only have one computer. Then you would have to juggle a little and keep them rotating in for their turn. But even that can do done. It's made for them to work independently. I have my younger ones partner up to do the "program year," but you can decide if your kids would work better together or alone.
Okay let me say.. I have perused a few days and WOW!!! This is a fantastic resource. These are lesson plans written out, this is tryuely EASY PEASY! The amount of time you have put into this is obviously tremendous. You are a blessing. This will definitely make a new homeschoolers life easier and make them successful. This will enable so many families to homeschool with no financial burden. Absolutely fabulous!! Thank you
You are welcome. It makes our school days run smoothly. I just wish more people knew about it! I see all these other advertisements and blog posts, etc. about complete, free curriculum, but they are just lists of books. I love those lists and use them, but it's not really all you need, is it? You can do your part to help by letting others know about it and by letting me know about any problems with links.
Thank you soooo much
This seems almost too good to be true! What a blessing you are to so many. I thank you for the time and energy you have put in to this and pray the Lord blesses you to continue. Your work may very well mean the difference between someone giving up on homeschooling or being able to continue. Again, thank you!
This is wonderful! Thank you for making my journey with 6 kids easier!
What an incredible blessing easypeasy has been to our family! All your hard work and graciousness has enabled me to keep up with our three sons homeschooling in the midst of fostering three babies and financial restraints. My children enjoy their school and you have introduced us to many wonderful online resources. God bless you and your family, thank you for providing this much needed ministry!
I am a new homeschool mom with K and 5th grade children plus a 10 month old who I plan to homeschool. You cannot imagine how much stress you have relieved me of. The constant planning and worrying will be so much less because of you and your incredible work. I only wish I had heard about you sooner! I can't wait to tell people about you and what an amazing person you are. Thank you so much for sharing this. God heard my cry and answered through you. My prayers are with you and your family.
I have been using your site for a few months now. I hope you don't mind, but I linked you on my blog. http://schomeschoolmama.wordpress.com . Your work on here is amazing and I share it with everyone I know.
You have no idea how you have just blessed me and my family! You are amazing!
This is an amazing website! I think it is so very thoughtful of you to have this site up, and give out all of this information! God bless you! I will be looking more into your site!!
Thank you, Amanda and family in Texas -
I'm speechless! I'm a mommy to 6 kids, I currently homeschool 2 of them and I'm pulling the rest Thursday, this makes it possible for me to do this without the fear that I had just days ago! THANK YOU, although thank you doesn't begin to express how grateful I am!
I sincerely appreciate all of this. You are a blessing!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you from the bottom of my heart. We have been homeschooling for 7+ years now. Every year I am lost, dazed and confused. This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for and of course it is the right "Price" With 8 kids it can be very expensive…………..Actually I stopped going to conventions for that reason……….Everything always sounded perfect, I would purchase the program then it would sit unused on the shelf………….I love Ambleside, but just never had the time to sit and put it all together for everyone………….You have done an amazing job and this is perfect! Thanks again from this very busy mother, I appreciate all the time and energy this must have taken to put together…………..I will share this with all my friends and family. Thank you again and again………….Warmly, Kimberly
This is a great idea….I am excited to look into this….. Do I need to download anything or just cone to the website each day?
Thank you so much for this! This is exactly what we have been looking for! I had tons of resources, but it was such a hassle to use them all to complete a homeschool day, but you have put all of them in one easy-to-use place, and even sorted them by grade/level!!! You rock! I tell everyone I know about this! There are always tons of people asking me about curriculum, and we have always used Abeka, but we love this site so much, I don't think we'll ever buy another curriculum! We have 9 kids, and I wish this had been around for the older ones who have already graduated, but the last 4 will greatly benefit from this program! There are two older girls in 10th and 11th grades, and a 6 year old girl who is doing 3rd grade, and my 3 year old (autistic) boy who is loving your preschool section! He can't wait to do school every day. (before, he felt excluded because there wasn't much for him) He does so well with the online format! Thanks for everything you do, and God bless you and your family. Our prayers for your little one!
This is so incredible. As the youth services librarian in our NM military town, I see many home schoolers every day. This is one of those times of the year when I frequently get semi-frantic parents saying, "I've decided to home school – what do I do???" Thank-you for offering a fantastic resource I can hand to parents who aren't ready to make up their own curriculae! I even started my 3yo daughter on the first lesson last night – she loved looking at all the "A"s on Google, while my 6yo coached her to "Find the green A. Find the A with polka-dots," etc. Learning and sibling togetherness, awesome!
This is amazing!!! Thank you so much!! I have been looking for something exactly like this!!!
You are amazing and getting us back on track! Thanks and we are praying for your baby and family!
This website is absolutely amazing. I have looked into and tried so many different curricula. Homeschooling 3 boys while dealing with a toddler and a baby is always a challenge. My search for something simple, fun and all in one has been fulfilled. Thank you so much, and my prayers go out to you and baby Nathaniel.
I have scoured the website looking for JUST this! Truly hope and pray this site does not go down! You have enabled me to be able to home school my child. You are a blessing to our family. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing this! We are homeschooling in China and this will be a great tool for our family! You are a blessing all the way to Asia.
Thank you so much. This is totally a God send to our family. This is our first year homeschooling, and the options are overwhelming and expensive. Thank you so much for your time and effort, we have really been struggling to find something that works. This is a perfect fit for my family. We love it.
U rule the virtual Homeschool!!!
OH I am *so* excited. I will have 3, 5 and 7th graders next year. Our resources are so limited that I wondered if I should just put them back in public school. THANK YOU!!!
You are an answer to prayer! God Bless you!!
Am I missing something…. I don't see the website or curriculum posted. I'm seriously considering homeschooling my daughter, and don't know where to start.
I'm sorry. The site stopped alerting me to comments, and I didn't realize that you had written. The curriculum can be found for any of the grades by clicking on the links in the sidebar, first, second, third, etc.

... music playing at 11 am and doesn't end until 12 pm. The general population within the hotel and Magalluf in general were highly intoxicated, extremely dirty looking British and Irish people.

- Report: #1008583
Complaint Review: Welcome Wagon
Welcome Wagon 5830 Coral Ridge Dr. #240
Coral Springs, Florida United States of America |
Welcome Wagon Beware of Contract with "Auto Renewal" clause and authorization to withdraw from Banking account! Coral Springs, Florida *EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back into your bank account that someone wrongfully takes it from you!
*Author of original report: Welcome Wagon "Auto Renewal" clause and cancellation of Contract
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
In Jan. 2013, I noticed they were still deducting from our checking account for their service, which I believed to have been canceled. Ms. Farley was adamant that I should have read the contract and should have been aware of the auto renew policy. I was adamant that if that was the case, I should have been told about the "Cancellation Policy" and the "Auto Renew" clause when I called in Sept. to cancel. She offered to deduct only half the charge and that I would continue to be billed until May 2013. I believe she did not disclose this information intentionally, so they could use this "Auto Renew" clause as a " Gotcha" clause to force you to continue with something you do not need, want, or that works in your interest.
After contacting the "BBB" which was useless, I filed a complaint with "Consumer Affairs" and the "Attorney General's Office" in Florida...before I even got a response I called the Main Office in Florida when I noticed another deduction from my Banking Account for Feb. 2013. The Company Representative I spoke to at that time said the "Account" would be canceled as I had wished.
The "Lesson" I learned here was to never give an authorization, to a Company with a Contract, to deduct money from my Account directly again..better to put it on a Credit Card, which you can cancel, if there is ever a dispute.
EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!
