I really like the Learning Pages site... this is a free site that has worksheets and some books that are great for this age!!
http://www.learningpage.com
Here's a site where you can download 30 free printable books

However, the best advice I can give you is to read to your child a lot! You've probably already done this, but it really does help.
Also, keep in mind that children develop at different rates. My 10 year old son, when he was in first grade really struggled with reading (to the point where I was really worried that he was dyslexic). Now, at 10 years old, he's reading far above grade level and I have to force him to stop reading and turn off his light at bedtime!!
Talk to your child's teacher, and see what he/she thinks about your child's reading level. The teacher can hopefully find some useful suggestions to help your child.
Someone also suggested the public library. Check to see if they have the "Bob" books : http://www.bobbooks.com/ These books are fantastic, and are what got all three of my sons started on reading.
Here's another site that has a lot of resources to print off for free http://www.abcteach.com/
And this site has a list of suggestions to help kids who struggle http://www.readingrockets.org/helping
Here is a free online phonics based reading course for young children http://www.fonetiks.org/foniks/
Many homeschooling families that I knew used this site http://www.beginningreading.com/
Hope that helps! Try not to let your child see your frustration, and give the child a lot of praise at small success. Helping you do things like write the grocery list are great. Also, those magnetic alphabet letters are great - I used to let my kids play with them on a cookie sheet.

Enroll her in Sylvan learning center. My youngest niece had reading problems ..and now she has read 50 books in over the last two years with no problems and no help. Also, try to find out if she has dyslexia, or eye problems. Those two things also affect the reading ability. Good Luck

Key is to keep it fun and interesting for him... you may be surprised it will come all at once.
Please be sure to check out your local library.
In the children's section of your local library, ask for easy beginner reader books, they usually have endless shelves, and find some favorite characters, your child would like... Clifford, Sponge Bob, Bob the Builder, Strawberry Shortcake, Cat In The Hat etc... Knock Knock books were a big hit in our house.
There are also some great PHONIC books available at the library (in the parents section). I think a favorite of mine was the ABC's of PHONICS and PHONIC GAMES. (great ideas to help integrate reading in everyday events.) One Way signs, Menus, Labeling household items, 3 letter bingo,.etc.
There are many LINKS listed under HOMESCHOOLING sites.
and
Try various LIBRARY on-line sites... search their LINKS.
There are lots of free resources, just search a little each day and you will stumble on one that works for you guys. (((Best wishes)))

It's possible to spend a lot of time and money trying to find methods to train your young ones how to read and boost their examining skills. Is difficult to teach a tiny kid how to learn, and also alluring them to read is difficult in itself. But it does not have to be that way since you got assistance from this program https://tr.im/CUuGs , Children Learning Reading program.
With Children Learning Reading you may show your child how to separate looks and separate words into phonemes, an important thing as soon as your child is just understanding how to spell.
The examining program from Children Learning Reading program allows you for kids to learn quickly and effectively, from simple words to sentences until they learn to see stories.

Talk to his teacher for ideas.
Read with him. You read a page and he reads one.
Play rhyming games with him.
Have him help you write grocery lists and then carry the list and mark things off for you.
Take him to the library.

Ask your school for tutoring, please do not get frustrated I had the same problem with my child at that age. The library is also a great idea.
