I think you're lucky. IMO, basals kill reading instruction. Kids learn to read by reading and they learn to write by writing. Programs, of any sort, take away from that. You don't need programs. Kermit's advice was wonderful--let your kids READ and WRITE and don't wish for a basal. Most of them are full of silliness.
