Looking for a curriculum

Im hoping to at some point purchase some curriculum, why? Because it is hard to find great online resources, organize everything, keep it straight, and then teach it. I do plan to supplement, and think overall I do ok, but it would be nice to have a binder or a booklet, something, that I didnt have to hound for, that we can easily use.

So my search begins, if you have any suggestions for Kindergarten curriculum, I will take it, ether email me (to the left) or leave a comment here. Ill share my findings as they come about.

Here is a link a friend gave me for homeschool reviews: Homeschool Reviews

I HIGHLY recommend Calvert! Their stuff is great! I was going to get it for Anthony but he's kinda between grade levels right now, so I'm going to wait until Spring and then get him the first grade set. My friend uses Calvert for her kids and she loves it like mad! :) Check it out here: http://www.calvertschool.org/engine/content.do?BT_CODE=CES1512

They also have an online assessment test for your child to take. Click on the services section in the dark blue bar towards the top and then Placement and Testing in the left hand column.

Send me a note sometime and we'll chat about homeschooling Kindergarten! I'm loving it so far! We're being really informal for this first year. I have various books for the core subjects and we were doing Galloping the Globe for our fun stuff. However, since I'm freaking out about first grade and all that gets added... we've gone extremely informal with our fun stuff and are sort of unschooling that part right now. That has really energized us lately! Anyway... like I said... email me if you would like to chat about it!
