    Kindergarten Coursebook

    Not a day goes by where I am not thankful for Oak Meadow. We've tried other curriculum similar to that of common core and it’s not for us. My daughter hated learning under that umbrella. As soon as I introduce Oak Meadow to my children I instant saw a connection and the right fit for us. Not only do we look forward to our day, but we actually have plenty of time left in our day! I also LOVE the lesson weekly layout and check mark activities. That and the review of how my child is doing per subject as our daily log for state records. Thank you for making learning fun again and not rushing my child into “advancement.”
