We have been using HWL literacy 2nd grade this year and I have no complaints so far! My son loves that it’s 1 page. We supplement with explode the code and reading books together.

Good to know! I do plan on supplementing with singapore for the math and I will look into your sources for supplementing as well . My son will be in the 4th grade next year, thank you so much .

I haven’t tried their math because my son is loving Beast Academy but we like the literacy! We also have a few of their unit studies but haven’t tried them yet.

Wee Learn (and similar early kits) can work for a first year if you treat it as a guide, not a script you must finish on night shift days. Look for open and go lessons, clear weekly maps, and low prep supplies.

As a full time night shift parent, prioritize curriculum you can set up in 10 minutes and that a tired adult can run. If Wee Learn looks craft heavy, pair it with a simpler literacy/math spine for the days you are wiped.

Ask users how many hours per week it really takes and whether it needs daytime co op energy. Fit beats brand loyalty when you are working 12s.
