Since you've already done the prep work, I'd say - take it slow.Start with one subject and make it something she enjoys. After two or three weeks add another subject. Keep adding one subject every two-three weeks until you've got everything in. This allows her to ease into the reality of homeschooling. It also allows you to make sure you don't overload her schedule academically.OK, I know you asked for *one* piece of advice, but I just have to throw this one in, too - don't glue yourself to a curriculum just because you spent good money on it. If soemthing isn't working, either return it or sell it and get something different. One person's "perfect" curriculum is another's living nightmare, so just because one or two people RAVED to you that the program was great doesn't mean it will be great for you and your family.Best wishes on this adventure!

That I wish I had done it first and never put my son in school.That if you are committed to it she will be fine. I am not a teacher so I use K12 program. That every child can and will learn. But my most important advice is this: Be prepared for family and friends to think you have lost your mind and that it is the wrong thing for her. Have a script ready for this. I wrote a letter to all my family and friends and told them why I was doing this. My inlaws are the insane ones think he should be in an institution! I homeschool for medical reasons too my son has Autism/Aspergers and since he is not "rain man" or stupid they would put him in a pod in the middle of the room all day and yes that is as bad as it sounds. Good luck and I hope your daughter is better soon. The stress of school gone she will most likely get better

1. You don't have to do school like they do in public school.2. you don't have to rush thru everything like ps does.3. there will be trial and error. Sometimes something you will buy won't work for your child. It'll be ok. Just keep trying till you find the right thing. 4. Take advantage of local homeschool groups. They have great educational opportunities and field trips.

Don't be shy about using EVERYTHING in your home as samples, experiments, etc... It's more interesting, fun, and your child/ren will learn without realizing that they are learning. that and they will be teaching you also.
