Just wanted to offer an alternate suggestion to a prepackage curriculum. The weakness of these is that they usually overemphasize one area e.g. phonics and ignore or deemphasize other important areas, like reading for meaning. Also, they don't always allow you to work with your child's own learning style. My website explains briefly the types of activities I do to teaching reading and in the resource section I have free resources like high frequency word lists, lists of library books according to reading, and level free printable poems and materials and books and you can order to teach your reading using regular books. I know this can work well for home schooling families because I have worked with lots of families both in my tutoring and through having the parent attend my reading seminar who have seen great progress.
