Hi there Canberra mum - go for it and well done! I have been homeschooling for 11 years and love it. I chose curriculum by pestering every homeschooler I met to show me what they are using. Math-U-See it a good one for maths and is very hands on, you can get a free demo dvd by hooking onto their site. Alot of homeschoolers use this for maths, it is a little costly to set up but it is fantastic. I have just started using Learn to Read, Write and Spell by Valerie Marrot (available through Homeschool supplies). This is cost effective and covers everything - you can do a diagnostic test to see what level your children need. ACE is a complete christian based curriculum and is expensive but you can do a free diagnostic on thier website to see what level your children are at in all subjects - I find this handy!

Well all the best on your homeschooling journey and would love to hear how you are getting on.
