Compulsory schooling in Washington state is age 8.  Prior to that:

 

Math:    Basic arithmetic facts:  dominoes, go-fish, uno, cribbage, and base-10 exchange are all good games that make it fun and easy to memorize the facts.  We have used CalcuLadders, Mad Minute, and WorkSheetFactory.com for written drills.

 

Reading:  Why Johnny Can’t Read followed by lots of easy-readers

 

History: Greenleaf Press’ Ancient Egypt, History of the Old Testament, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Rome.

 

Science:  Nature studies, Fischertechnik kids
