Joan/VPK Florida We use Houghton Mifflin Pre-K 2006 edition, but there is a 2011 edition called Splash that looks good, too. I believe it has the "rigor" you seek, but leaves enough leeway to plan plenty of fun activities. The program will take care of the reading and math, but you'll need to look elsewhere for the writing/handwriting.

Book Storage Disaster - Please Help!

by M.E./PK
