Here's a review for a great computer based curriculum. We LIKE it! My eldest son says "I like the themes, the links within the lessons, the spelling and vocabulary games, and the problems with the timed racecar." What he doesn't like about it is this: you have to have exact spellings when you type in the answers, including correct capitalization. (Which is why Mommy likes it!) Oh, he also wanted me to tell you that he likes having his very own password to log in! (He enjoys having a "lock" (of sorts) on his lessons, so the littles can't mess with any of his work!)
Downside, it's a bit pricey. We actually got ours secondhand at about 1/3 of the cost. So it was a huge blessing for our busy and large family. You can check out the program at www.aop.com (alpha omega publications).
Another plug for that free typing program I have listed...it's great and my boys use correct typing "placement" of fingers to fill in answers on the computer. Woo Hoo!
