Dates Used: August 2009 - present

Likes: Everything is planned and organized for you. I really like their method of teaching phonics. I like the little games and art projects - very minimal prep work required.

I use the teacher's manuals as a guide, but don't do everything it includes for each lesson. Sometimes I will combine a lesson, sometimes I'll skip a lesson. There is a LOT of review, and I skip some of that, too. I just pick and choose what parts I know my child needs. The numbers portion of the curriculum is very easy for my child, so we don't usually use that book - I do other things for math. I love that my child is 4 and reading. She loves it too!

Overall, I am very happy with the curriculum.
