READING:  LeapFrog Letter Factory: https:\/\/amzn.to\/3alplr4 This is just the absolute best way to learn letter sounds. I have my kids watch this 2-3 times a day when they're learning to read. Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons:     https:\/\/amzn.to\/3aSFeem                                                        The BEST book for starting out or struggling readers. This is the number one thing I would work on! I started my kids at ages 4-6. A little dry, but push through! It's so thorough and backed by research BOB Books: https:\/\/amzn.to\/2wUm3m4 Very easy books for the earliest readers. These are designed to help kids feel the immediate success that they "can read a whole book." Classic Start Books: https:\/\/amzn.to\/2wUm3m4.                My kids love these. They are classic literature stories rewritten for kids. Swiss Family Robinson is a favorite and also The Time Machine. Good for ages 6-9. MATH:  If your child's school is using a common-core-based math curriculum, it may be difficult for you to understand the methodology behind it. So if your child has math assignments sent home with them, you may need a guide. There are plenty of free resources online, like these: https:\/\/www.pta.org\/home\/family-resources\/Parents-Guides-to-Student-Success If you want your child to keep working on math assignments at home, the Saxon Math curriculum is really tried-and-true. It will likely have a familiar style to most adults, and it's easy to find used hardback textbooks on Amazon. For example:                             Saxon Math 6\/5 (math book for average-advanced 5th grader or behind 6th grader.)                                             https:\/\/amzn.to\/2U0iBhr                                                                   Look in the used book section to find some great deals! But consider taking this time to also memorize math facts, like multiplication tables. You can print out your own for free on https:\/\/www.math-drills.com\/ Math-U-See, another popular math curriculum with homeschoolers, has some e-learning tools:                         www.mathusee.com\/e-learning HANDWRITING:                                                                                   Print Capitals - Zaner Bloser Kindergarten https:\/\/amzn.to\/3cO0Nih I like to start with this one, because it is scripted for parents and teaches you the headline, midline, and baseline, as well as directions like "pull down, push up, circle back." (Check out those used prices! I've always gotten ones that have about 5 pages written in them in pencil.) Kumon Lowercase Letters: https:\/\/amzn.to\/2IU0XXL                           I like the Kumon books because they are pretty. But they are not scripted for parents to explain. That can be frustrating, which is why I start with a Zaner-Bloser book. Once you have the hang of it, you can move on to Kumon. LATE MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL KIDS:                                             Use this time to study for a CLEP, AP, or SAT test! CLEP and AP credits will transfer to most colleges, and it's only about $100 to take the test!                                                                                              Go to www.modernstates.org for free CLEP prep classes!           Khan Academy (www.khanacademy.org) has free CLEP, AP, and SAT test prep!
