Ikea give away a fair bit of useful stuff. Solar powered lamps spring to mind.

You are doing a great job dear. Since most of the time you are offline, try downloading PDF files of eBooks. You will find lot of books in PDF format. Check freekidsbooks.org or make google search for "free kids eBooks". |

Most of the time when people say "educational resources," they're about to try selling you a bill of useless technology. Its like, "Ok, so we're going to mount this giant projector screen, which doubles as a drawing tablet, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BLACKBOARD where it'll block most of it. Oh, and while you technically can use board markers on it.... we'll fire you if you do. And we're going to give you a huge box full of these little clickers; you have to use them for checking student comprehension and give less classwork. And to make all that work, here's a Win7 laptop which we expect you to take home and use in place of your home computer. No games allowed, though. We'll fire you if you install them, unlike the students who we really don't care if they're playing games or not. And did we mention the principal has a cell snooper that he uses to listen in on your phone's data packets...?" |

Offline is definitely the way to go. You can use Calibre to convert files to formats that work.
Have you looked into India's $20 tablet? Then you could use standard Android reader apps like Aldiko. |

Ah, thanks Andrew. Perhaps the new one laptop per child tablet then? I don;'t know if they are more affordable.
