We will likely need to work on Hooked on Phonics Second Grade as well.  Science is Skeeve's arena, I do the read-aloud, he and Monkey do the experiments.

French is required for our homeschool, though we do not know precisely what the requirement is, it can't hurt to introduce it early.

If it takes us some extra time to work through Story of the World, that's okay.  Right now, I'm figuring on working through the book in a two-year cycle instead of one year, as right now, Monkey is chronologically a junior kindergartener, and he wouldn't be expected to study history at all until the 2014-2015 school year.  As he becomes more adept at writing himself and adjusts to the amount of work we're going to do, expectations likely will change.

Next year, we will start handwriting and spelling.  For right now, those are not particular concerns, especially with the fine motor asynchrony.
