Im about to homeschool my child who has LD due to Cerebral Palsy. I need a curriculum that focuses on basics. Basic math, basic everything. Has memory issues but she "gets" it as long as it is simple. School is NOT working out. Reads on about a 2nd grade level but is in 5th grade. What's a good simple curriculm?

For reading, NOTHING I have tried beats the I See Sam program. Likely she could start a ways into the program. http://www.roadstoeverywhere.com/3RsPlusRead.html or http://www.iseesam.com

 

For other stuff, ACE paces are great. http://www.schooloftomorrow.com

 

I have 3 kids with mild CP. The 2 girls are using ACE and the I see Sam reading and it is going well.

I bet that intelligence wise, your child is right up to speed. Is this right? If so, just because the reading level isn't up to what it could be, doesn't mean that what they're learning should be below grade level, right?

My 5th grader loves SOTW and our library has the volume that we're doing. It's great, because it gives her something to listen to, and she's learning tons. Also, the guy who reads this, has his own cds about people like Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln. Even my husband listened to these on the way to work.

At least for History, these would be great!

And then how about cds for math about different basics facts?
