Your Complete Math & Literacy Curriculum
36-weeks of engaging, curriculum-based exercises. All math and literacy core skills are covered in only one hour per day!
Give your child a rock-solid foundation in only one hour per day!
If you believe in the power of child-led learning, and also believe that children need rock-solid core skills, then you and I are birds of a feather!
This is exactly why I created my Math and Literacy Curriculum. One page a day for literacy and one page a day for math is all it takes to ensure all boxes are checked and deep, meaningful core skills are covered.
This curriculum is perfect for:
temporary homeschooling
home learning or unschooling
homeschooling longhaulers
summer learning
filling gaps in learning caused by a disruptive year
The Literacy Curriculum makes reading natural and easy.
You will read a short, simple story each week to practice reading comprehension. By using carefully planned out word families and sight words, reading becomes natural, easy, and magical. You will also explore poetry, journaling, and so much more.
The Math Curriculum takes you on a storybook adventure.
In Grade One, you'll join Princess Nora, Prince Dylan, and Princess Clara in their magical kingdom. In Grade Two, you'll join their cousin Harper on her family's farm. With each, you will go on magical adventures while exploring the math strands.
Yes, you really can do it all in just one hour a day!
This curriculum is about quality over quantity. Skip the struggles and spend your days doing what brings you joy, knowing you have your core skills covered.

What grade should I choose?
Grade One is for children who:
know their letters and sounds
are beginning to blend three letter words (such as 'cat')
know their numbers up to 10
understand what the numbers up to 10 represent
Grade Two is for children who:
can read three letter words (such as 'cat')
are beginning to recognize some sight words (such as 'the' or 'and')
understand concretely how to make 10 (such as '1 and 9,' '2 and 8,' etc.)
can count to 25 or higher
You'll notice there are no ages mentioned above. Children progress through skills sequentially and in their own time. Where one child may be ready at age 6, others will be ready when they are older. Follow your child's lead.
