Thank you for this list. I have a child of the same age (UK year 2 is the same as first grade). The Writing with Ease is particularly interesting as I'm not quite sure what we will use for writing yet.
You're welcome!
We've really enjoyed Writing with Ease. In fact, I blogged more extensively about it at this link: http://lextinacademy.blogspot.com/2015/03/where-is-writing-with-ease-taking-our.html
Maybe that will help you understand more about how the program works and if it will work for your family.
I really like the classical method of writing that includes lots of copy work, dictation, and narration.
Thank you, Lexi! I have a 2nd grade boy, but your list is so helpful!
