Please advice needed for a beginner and books to use.

Hi everyone . I want to HomeEd DD. I live in a small rural village where there aren't any schools. I would be very grateful if you could fill me in on subjects to teach a toddler and recommend some books(full details please). I don't live in the U.K but i want to use the British system of education. Or you could give me a list of textbooks used for under5s in schools in Britain. Or just anything good!

The Unschooling Handbook by Mary Griffith

Homeschooling: The Early Years by Linda Dobson.

There are lots of resources on the internet that follow the UK National Curriculum. Eg:

NLS framework gives national curriculum objectives for literacy.

national curriculum maths units

Textbooks? I'm not sure which textbooks are used in the primary schools. Perhaps if you asked on 'Primary' someone might know.

We use the jolly phonics range for teaching alphabet and blending sounds-words and access the Oxford Reading Tree books from the local library, but really you can use any books once they start to be able to spell and blend.
I bought the SAT revision guides from Letts, I think, for the maths, english & science, but we don't really use them, it was more for me to know what the other schooled children would have completed by the end of ks1 really, in case she was to return to school.
We have sort of drifted into an autonomous approach so books on what they should be learning are a bit pointless really.
My Dd is 5 now and we still adopt a play-based approach and I think will continue to do so until maybe 7ish.

this book is good and gives a good approach to teaching reading

but to the OP-I wouldn't be using textbooks with a toddler, tbh.

Honestly, for under 5s I'd just let them play. I think that is the beauty of HE, you can give them a little longer just to do this.

There is NO evidence that playing until, say, 7, before starting formal work has any detrimental affect. Actually countries that start formal education at later ages to the UK tend to have much higher literacy rates (eg Scandinavia).
