Today we bought the math curriculum we'll be using, as well as all the school supplies we'll need.  The other curriculum stuff is being ordered and we should have it soon. 

The Singapore math curriculum is great of course, it has a world wide reputation both in both home schooling and in public/private schools.  Nicole did 1a in kindergarten and did well with it, we expect her to go through 1b fairly quickly because she's already done much of the stuff in it, but we feel doing 1b will improve her foundation and that's important.

The Singapore curriculum is very visual, which works well for Nicole, and of course for arithmetic in general.  It starts of with comparing numbers, doing subtraction, and includes doing addition/subtraction with two digit numbers, single digit multiplication up to 40, a brief introduction to division, and of course time and money problems.  I think a child should be very comfortable with single digit addition and subtraction without using fingers, and have a basic idea of what multiplication is is before using this curriculum, at least that's the point we made sure Nicole was at before starting this.

We bought the text book and the workbook, there is a teachers guide but that seemed superfluous.  After looking though all three it seemed all that we would need is in the two books we bought.
