Thanks for these suggestions. I've heard of the EPGY site, but somehow thought it was for older kids.

Our son probably will either go into the public school or I will school him at home. We're in a rural area without too many flavors of (affordable) school.

Without acceleration, I think the public school is impossible, since D reads at 3rd-4th grade level and has taught himself through at least through second grade math in about the last five months. So he won't learn anything in first grade. His behavior is on the young side, though, and we know from talking with them this year that the school administration is very strongly opposed to accelaration.

Thank you again.
