Rating:  Summary: We love it! Review: I am currently homeschooling my 5-year-old daughter using this curriculum and so far it has been an absolute pleasure! The daily lesson plans and supporting activities provide an excellent springboard for us to work from. The corresponding worksheets are not only educational, they're also fun for my daughter to do. I can't print them up fast enough for her! I don't know whether or not they fixed the problem with the binding (see below), but so far I've scanned most of the worksheets in the book and it's held up very well. This book is concise, thorough and easy to navigate. I highly recommend it to anyone who has decided to homeschool their first-grader and doesn't want to pay an arm and a leg for their curriculum.

Rating:  Summary: Can't Ask For Much More! Review: This is my first year homeschooling and this book has been my lifesaver. It lays everything out for me so I spend more time educating my son instead of developing lesson plans. The only thing that was frustrating for me was having to flip back and forth between the sections. This and copying the accompanying worksheets probably contributed to my front cover separating from the book. I like the fact that I can supplement or substitute in areas that I choose. Overall, a must have for the homeschooling family on a budget.
Rating:  Summary: great in-depth curriculum Review: This secular curriculum has been an invaluable resource in the homeschooling of my son this year. The lesson plans are very in-depth, easy to follow and well thought out. I also appreciate the wealth of added lesson plans and activites that are included. I supplement and subtract according to the level of my son's understanding. It's a great guide for me as his teacher. The only negative I've found is with the quality of the paperback itself. The cover tears from the book binding. This happened with both books I bought. The first book I returned. My second book just tore recently. I would recommend if this book is printed again that the publishers consider putting it in a ring binder which would better hold up and be more practical in a homeschool setting. Overall, I highly recommend this book to homeschoolers.
