I feel that even using the work books found in the stores or printing pages from the computer would work just fine at this time. If you really want to go with an actual curriculum there are homeschool conventions that take place each year, I would suggest you look into this. atozhomeschool has a list by state. I used A Beka.

Hi springmama, I have been wanting to get back to this thread to give you some advice, but I just now found the time.

Without knowing your child, it would be difficult to recommend a specific program. When choosing a program, you need to consider your child's learning style. If he is a hands on learner you will want to use something that frequently uses manipulatives. If he is more of a visual learner, you may want something colorful or if he is distracted by color and drawings, you may want something more plain.

We used Abeka for my son's K year and it worked out great. But there are MANY great programs available on the market.

I've also heard good things about Miquon, Singapore, Horizons, Saxon, and Math U See.

You can find reviews of them here: http://www.homeschoolreviews.com/review ... aspx?id=93

Personally I love RIghtstart math. I love the way her approach to teaching children math. My children also love it. We all like the fact that it is not a whole lot of writing and workbook. Instead it is manipulative's, games, and all of that. Love it!
