We use Sonlight and love it! They don't have a math curriculum per se but they recommend some that you can buy in their core packages. We used Singapore math. My neighbor is a high school math teacher (but his wife homeschools their children) and he said Singapore is one of the best curriculums out there for math! Good luck :)

My K is doing Christian Liberty Press 1st Grade....using the curriculum kit, not the academy. I think that CLP has very strong language arts and math. DS is a bit accelerated and is soaring in both subjects. He used their K math last year and has a very strong mathematics foundation. He is reading well above grade level because of the phonics. I think the science is just OK and the history is weak...but OK for my K. I will continue the phonics, spelling, and math next year....but will use Memoria Press Literature, Beautiful Feet American History, and Noeo Science next year...and add in Prima Latina.
DD is using Memoria Press Jr. Kindergarten and
we love it....so far. Its still new. She will join DS in science and history next year and use Memoria Press Kindergarten for everything else. -
Thank you ladies so much!

I really like sonlight. It's kind of pricey though...

Hi again CowGirlMama 0508,
My children are now grown, but I still tutor (K through 6th grade), do home school workshops. Because of my success in helping children to read I was recently invited to give workshops at the University Of North Florida about how to teach reading.
What I do is easy....anyone can do it. All I use to teach phonics and reading is the game Ring Around the phonics (books included). But I also use it to teach other language arts too . With the game, I am able to teach Up to 4 children at the same time even if on different subjects or levels. For example I can teach one child phonics, another spelling and a third child vocabulary. It works like the old room school house in which the children learn from each other.
