| Check this for the math once he's ready: https://www.mathmammoth.com The sight might look dated, but it's a curriculum written by one teacher who you can actually reach via email. My wife and I have looked at a bunch of different math options and this one seems like the best option: - Mastery-based, with minimal repetition
- All instruction is written for students, with no separate materials for parents, so older students can self-teach
- Materials are organized by grade level or topic, it's your choice which you use
- Can buy printed books (including spiral bound!) or PDFs
- Companion instructional videos by the author
- Dirt-cheap, probably because it's self-published with a single author Here's a direct link to one of the sample PDFs for 1st grade: https://www.mathmammoth.com/preview/Math_Mammoth_Grade1A_Sam... (There's no kinder materials because all they're typically expected to do in is be able to count, identify shapes, etc.) This also looked interesting, but it's definitely a more involved curriculum with lesson separate scripted lesson plans: https://rightstartmath.com/our-curriculum/the-rightstart-dif... The plus for this one is that it's heavy on manipulation (using playing cards and an abacus) and light on counting and repetition. |
