My son is 2.5 and right now he really enjoys toddler time on bad mouse. In a few months I plan to start heart of dakota little hands with him. It is a very gentle and fun program.
DD will start K in a couple months. So far the plan is:
Heart of Dakota Little Hearts
A Reason for HW K
MUS Primer
Ordinary parents guide to teaching reading
I let my kids work ahead as much as they want. The other day my 6yr old did 8 science lessons in one day and 3 math lessons. We do a spelling pre test on Monday and if they get a 90% we skip the list and go on to the next one. My 7yr old would complete multiple lessons a day at age 5 and now he is working on 4th and 5th grade level for everything and is slowing down to one lesson a day.
That is way too much for us!
I want my children to meet these goals before they start first grade
- print upper and lowercase letters, reversals are fine.
- count 1-100
- recognize 1-20
- be able to read simple sentences like the cat say on the mat
- understand simple addition and subtraction.
Everything else is gravy!
OP my son is just like yours and is doing wonderful with Horizons. He is 7 and is working on grade 4 book 1 right now! He loves it and sometimes does multiple lessons a day. He finds it fun.
We use the generic version of frontline and it works great and is so much cheaper! I get it at petsmart. http://pets.petsmart.com/guides/flea-and-ticks/fiproguard-max.shtml
Dh and I went to public school and it was horrible. I want better for my children
I can't imagine sending my kids to a stranger for the majority of the time they are awake.
If I sent my 4yr old to prek this coming fall she would be gone from 8:30am to 4pm 5 days a week. No thank you!
