Explode the Code Homeschool Curriculum Review

(WA)

This is our first year homeschooling as my daughter is at the Kindergarten Level. The Explode the Code homeschool curriculum was recommended by another homeschooling mom. I purchased the series thinking that this was the answer for us, not completing a lot of research before buying.

We got off to a rocky start, and the pictures were somewhat difficult for my daughter to "get". She and I struggled at first, but I feel that it was more because of my inexperience and lack of confidence with teaching. Also due to a new evolution of our relationship from full time working mom to stay at home mom and teacher. Luckily, we persevered and we are doing MUCH better with this curriculum and she is benefiting greatly now that she has learned the pictures and we have both settled into our new roles.

Bottom line: I will definitely use this again for my other children, and will likely start sooner with the preschool getting ready to explore the code series.

Great tips, Amanda! Thanks for sharing about "Explode the Code" and your first year homeschooling experience - so helpful! Blessings, Heather :)
