The real problem

What changed for Fort Worth ISD families this fall

Fort Worth ISD opened 2026-27 on August 10 as its first full school year under a state-appointed board of managers, with Dr. Peter Licata named superintendent by the state. At the lowest-performing campuses, now grouped in the Elevate Network, Licata has said teaching will be more systematic, with less room for creative lessons until results improve. For a parent of a first or third grader, this mostly shows up as questions at home: Is my child keeping up in reading? Why is math homework suddenly a fight? Some families simply want a calm half hour of practice after school. Others are thinking about teaching at home. Texas treats a homeschool as a private school. Families must use a written curriculum, teach in a bona fide manner, and cover reading, spelling, grammar, mathematics and good citizenship. No state filing is described; if a public school asks, parents can send a letter stating the child is being legally taught at home. This is a short summary, not legal advice, so check current law with the state or a homeschool legal resource before you withdraw a child from school.

Why it fits

What each guide gives a parent

Every part pairs a guide for you with a workbook for your child.

  • Learn to Read at Home walks a parent through early reading support for Grades 1–2.
  • No More School Struggles targets motivation in Grade 2, for evenings when homework turns into an argument.
  • Math Made Easy gives third grade parents a guide plus a workbook for math practice at home.
  • English Made Easy supports fourth grade English with the same guide-and-workbook setup.
  • For Texas homeschoolers, it supports reading, grammar and math, three of the required subjects, but not all of them.
  • It prints at home, so practice does not depend on a school account or a screen.

Getting started

A simple weekly rhythm

One way to use the bundle in an ordinary school week. Move the days around sports and family plans.

  1. Read the right guide firstBefore your child sees a single page, read the parent guide for their grade. Twenty minutes on a Sunday gives you the method, so you are not making it up at the table on Monday.
  2. Pick three short sessions a weekThree sessions of fifteen to twenty minutes usually work better than one long Saturday push. Use the workbook pages in order and stop while your child is still willing.
  3. Use school work as your guideLook at what comes home from your child's Fort Worth ISD class. If reading homework is the struggle, lean on the reading guide; if math is, use Math Made Easy that week.
  4. Handle the hard eveningsWhen practice keeps ending in tears, switch to No More School Struggles for a week or two. A child who wants to try again learns more than one who is pushed through pages.
  5. Check in with the teacherEvery few weeks, tell your child's teacher what you are practicing. They can tell you whether it matches the class and what to focus on next, especially on a campus with a set plan.

What to buy

Is this the right bundle for your child

Buy the Learning at Home Bundle at $79.99 (the four parts separately cost $119.96) if you want guidance for yourself, not just worksheets. If your child already practices willingly and you only need more pages, the Grades 1–6 Literacy Skills Curriculum at $49.99 gives grammar, writing, phonics and reading packs for every grade from 1 to 6. For math practice alone, the Elementary Math Practice & Warm-Up Bundle costs $34.99. Homeschool families who also want science can add the Elementary Science Curriculum, though it is written for Grades 3–5.

Honest limits

Honest limits

This bundle is not written for Texas and does not follow the TEKS, so it is not a substitute for your child's school curriculum or a complete homeschool plan. It has no spelling or good citizenship strand, and science and history are not in it. Each guide fits one grade, so a family with one child will use part of the bundle now and the rest later. You print the workbooks yourself. It is licensed for your own family. If it does not suit you, you can exchange it within 7 days for store credit of equal value; there are no cash refunds.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Does this count as a Texas homeschool curriculum?

Texas requires a written curriculum covering reading, spelling, grammar, mathematics and good citizenship. This bundle supports reading, grammar and math practice, but it is not built around Texas rules and does not cover every required subject. Treat it as one piece of your plan, and check current law with the state or a homeschool legal resource before you decide what counts.

Is it matched to what Fort Worth ISD teaches?

No. It is not aligned to the TEKS and has no connection to Fort Worth ISD or its curriculum. It is general home practice for Grades 1–4. Ask your child's teacher what the class is working on this month, and use the guide that fits that skill.

My child is in Grade 1. Is the bundle worth it?

A first grader will use Learn to Read at Home now. No More School Struggles fits second grade, and the math and English guides fit Grades 3 and 4. If you will not need the later guides, buying Learn to Read at Home on its own, since every part is also sold separately, may make more sense.

I am not a teacher. Can I really use this?

Yes, that is who it is written for. Each guide explains what to do before your child starts the workbook, so you are not guessing. Read the guide first, keep sessions short and talk to your child's teacher if something does not seem to click.

Can I use it during school breaks or if school is closed?

Yes. Everything is a download you print at home, so it works over winter break, in summer or on a day school is closed. Keep a few pages printed in a folder by the door so you always have something ready without planning that morning.

What if it turns out not to fit my child?

Within 7 days of buying, you can exchange it for store credit of equal value and choose something else from the store. It is store credit, not a cash refund, so look through the product page and the full list of parts carefully before you buy.
