Hi! I have been kinda of the quiet reader to the group only post a couple times. Cris got me started on this group and I always find a common thread here to our own life with our 10 yr old daughter with DS. I recently have been very unhappy with our school and am trying to get my ducks in a row to homeschool our daughter. I am waiting one more year due to the need to work from home one more year for financial reasons in this crazy gas and economic time. Katie is non verbal and only communicates at a 18 mth to 30 mth range but does use a DYNAVOK(talking computer) to communicate. I think I have seen some Pre reading skills and maybe even reading skills. Has anybody else homeschooled with these dynamics......What programs worked for your child. I am very interested in getting everything ready and maybe started a trail for the summer before to test the waters.
Thanks Katie's Mom

I started homeschooling this year do to my sons health, I know about the needing to work thing, but any way. Have you tried the love and learning kit, it is great, my son is 7 and loves this, he is picking up on words, he signs them also. I don't know if this will help or not, but it is an idea.
