Re: Considering homeschool for 1st grader

Sorry for taking so long to respond. My son really liked the Hooked on Phonics books, but we never did crack open any of the other materials, flashcards or CDs.

It was good for that first year because I was so unsure of myself (still am unsure on many days!) However, today we use a much more flexible...
