Good day,  I know there are a lot of free sites out there with great info.  However if you are looking for a low cost montessori program this site is AWESOME.  I save so much time and money with this.  I have used some forms of montessori in our home for over 13 years....  Here is the website...  http://www.montessorifortheearth.com   It has ages up to 9 i think.....   Good luck and let me know if you need anything else...

 He teaches math differently than a traditional public school.  There are no set textbooks.  He has actually created his own workbooks.  Mastery is VERY important and having a solid foundation in the basics.  If there are gaps in math it can cause difficulties.  As far as kumon I have to say I am hooked.  I now have my 6 and 4 year olds taking the class.  Because I am homeschooling the 6 and 4 year old I have so much freedom in teaching them.  Oh here is a link to the AMC 8 so you can get an idea of what it is all about

Hello everyone,  I must say that i have used so many different methods with my children.  I do have a 13 year old girl who just placed in the top 1 percent in the world on the AMC 8 math test which is a global test (she scored a 23 out of 24).  Her school discovery-academy.org placed number one in florida. Her math teacher is amazing and I give him all the credit for teaching her to this level.  She is also taking the CLEP test for college in grade 7 !!!!!!  She was in public school for grades k-5 and I saw that her math skills were effected.  However she was in Kumon from the age of 3 and I think that helped her stay ahead.  Right now I am homeschooling our 6 year old and am using math mammoth curriculum www.mathmammoth.com , kumon,  time 4 learning and misc. other websites.  I STRONGLY believe in mastery before moving on.  I do find that in a lot of cultures families feel so strongly for children's education and no mater where they live they are looking for teaching methods that help outside of public schools  

Yes.  I live in Florida and my 13 year old is taking keyboarding through florida virtual school  and loves it..........  We are lucky because it is free and she is not in public school. I also use time 4 learning with my 6 year old who I just started homeschooling...  We do use other curriculum besides the computer
