Other than math, this is not only a "free" curriculum but comes with lesson plans as well. It is literature based and most of the books can be downloaded and printed, or found in your library. http://amblesideonline.org
However, at such young ages, why not use the world around you? Do a lot of reading, exploring, playing, creating, writing stories, etc. Many libraries carry "What Your [insert grade] Needs to Know" You could practically make a free curriculum from the library just by using recommendations from that book.
Best of wishes...

We don't use much formal curriculum for 1st and 2nd grade. Life is our curriculum until 3rd or 4th grade.
For science, we're talking and reading about all the changes that happen in fall (caterpillars making their winter homes, leaves changing colors). For history,we read books from the library (historical fiction is great). For math, we use everyday things (cooking, grouping, adding, rounding). For writing, we use journaling, dictation, ...
And the best part is - it's all free!

I use this website because I live in Utah and just happened to find it when I typed "Utah school curriculum" into a search engine. I'm sure that you could get hits on sites for your state (or country) by replacing Utah with wherever it is that you're from. You can also find free curriculum at http://teachers.net/lessons/search.html
