GCFLearnFree.org in 2008. We're excited by these great numbers and want
to thank you for helping us spread the word about
GCFLearnFree.org.
If you have friends,
family, or coworkers that you think would be interested in our Computer
Training, Math & Money Basics, or Everyday Life

What's
Going on In Everyday Life?
The GCFLearnFree.org
team has been hard at work developing new Everyday Life activities and lessons that
will be available in upcoming months. The interactive lessons will provide learners with an opportunity to practice
numerous math and reading skills in a new, unique format. We promise it will be worth the wait!
Until we debut these new
activities, take some time to explore all the current activities and
lessons, and you'll see why our
Everyday Life lessons have been accessed by learners more than 180,000 times.

Africa, and designed and illustrated by Bill Koeb at GCFLearnFree.org.
