FIAR Reading
Posted in Five in a Row
|
My friend Susan once told me several years ago that her family had a reading pattern for Five in a Row books. I listened with interest and stored up the information for later, after all my eldest was 6 back then! Well, now we are at "later" and are following the same sort of pattern. The first day, I read the Five in a Row book and set the model for how it should be read - the tone, the expression, the pronunication etc. Day Two - One of the older boys reads to Adam (6) Day Three - the other one reads Day Four - I usually read again Day Five - sorry, we have a four day week so it's four in a row for us!! This week, we read How to Make Apple Pie and See the World. Well, by the time Stephen was to read it, it was the third time through. As soon as he said he was going to read to Adam, all of the boys literally flocked to the lounge. I had to sneak out and get the camera and take a shot - it was one of those moments!  Mark loves the books so much that he often looks at them again after they have been left on the lounge...  and it was just glorious with the sun coming through that window. |
