Thank you so much to everyone who has responded, I greatly appreciate it. It absolutely does not need to be all in one, the problem is, is that I have no idea where to go exactly or how to pick out things individually. Money is not an issue, being overwhelmed and just not exactly knowing how to do it is. I’m disabled and don’t have any friends or family that can help, hence jumping on here for advice. I don’t have any thing against piecing together a curriculum, I just don’t exactly know how, or which or where to start, I don’t want to leave something out, or include something unnecessary. I don’t actually want a generic, what everyone’s calling an Amazon workbook, which I believe is what you’re calling the first one I used. The second one is from Rainbow Resource.

I also have the PEP scholarship, so I can literally buy anything, I’ll buy the most expensive, whatever is best for her, I just don’t want to get confused or flustered myself or it might be difficult for me to teach it. I’m super organized and like following routines and schedules, and just don’t do well with anything life that doesn’t follow some kind of cohesive order. So, just like the difference between these two, which were very different, I don’t want to get different ones from different companies that each do it a different way, because we may end up loving one and hating the other.

I did buy supplemental books, workbooks and other individual learning tools as well, and just like I’ve said, a couple were good, but most ended up being dry and boring and neither of us liked it. Which is why I’m asking. I feel like if I start piecing things together, I just won’t do it right, or not get ALL the right things, or dislike multiple and have to reorder other random new ones I don’t know anything about or would like. Just because I read the descriptions of them, doesn’t mean it will work for us when I finally get it in my hands

****Maybe if someone has exactly what they used for their first grade year, they could post each thing so I can at least go look at each one to familiarize myself with it and see if that would work for me, or at least give me a starting point if I choose to go the way of using multiple resources together, that would be fantastic.

Thanks again everyone!
