Why are you doing a formal curriculum for a 4 yo? Does she want to do EPGY? I would not encourage lots of formal learning but rather let her read things she likes and talk to her about what she reads. If she has to be in preschool and needs a structured curriculum to do during that time, you'll have to find something useful (focus on writing), but formal learning doesn't have to start so early even in a kid so advanced. I'd advocate no attention to grade level, lots of access to fun materials and letting her play with them.
Yes - I hear you... I wanted to find ways to support her learning at home since we decided *not* to send her to K this year. They do "letter of the week" at her preschool, and it bothered me that she would not be learning anything much in the way of academics this year. Since I felt that she was ready for academics, we opted to let her do EPGY. She really likes it, and, I must confess, it keeps her out of my hair while I make dinner. (She has two younger siblings). She has learned a lot and it helps her with her writing. Since she loves to write stories, it is really has been a good thing.
