[@vinceocratic]

Highly recommend IXl. It’s a program that will outline every lesson your child will have from Pre-k to calculus. I’ve used it religiously with my kid for 7- years now and it’s a God send. You also get real time diagnostics so you can track and find the kid’s weak areas and create lessons to bring him/her up to speed. PS - if you’re helping your kid with homework you’re an awesome parent!
