Rebuilding joint strength seems to be the key for knee strengthening. It reduces pain you have, and acts as a preventative measure for knee joint erosion when you age. Correct form is key when doing the following exercises:
#2 Step Ups
All you need is a step which can be in your home, or even a big sturdy, hard covered book. Go slow when stepping, and always keep your knee bent behind your toes.
#3 Lunges
Keep your knee behind your toes and alternate a lunge with each leg. Keep the upper body straight and move in a controlled manner.
#4 Squats
Keep you legs shoulder width apart and then lower your rear end. The motion is such that you should feel like you are going to sit down on a chair. Matter of fact you can use a chair of table as a spotter to lightly touch your rear with before going back up. Don't actually go down into the seated position though, keep the motion fluid and constant. Keep the knees behind the toes, just like the other exercises.

You should also stretch and mobilize the knee before going into the strengthening part. Correct form is key. Check out these moves and study the form, as going out of form could create more damage to the joints. These exercises done properly can greatly help with knee strengthening as well as pain relief.
