Writing the Road to Reading
Posted in School

I think this might be the best reading course there is. I
love it, my girls love it. They both (Katelyn and Breanna) work together at the
same time, on different levels and it totally WORKS! Unit studies did not work
last year, but if this is an indicator, we are going back to them.
Katelyn is much farther then Breanna, but we do a review for 5-10 mins which is Breanna's main
lesson, then we do 5-10 mins on the next lesson, Breanna either does her writing
then or pays some attention to Katelyn's lesson. Then Katelyn does her writing
and reading and when Breanna is done I read her an earlier reader. Katelyn is
reading some of them, but only to her sisters when she wants too. She is still
a shy reader and doesn't like reading as much as being read to. Think she can
get wrapped in to the book if someone is reading it instead of her reading it
still at this point.
Course math is going well, and Faith and Life is an incredible religion course
too. Science and History we are starting to add some. I like the classical
approach, but will probably stay with what I have.
Danelle is doing more and more with us, I think by Jan she will need her own books.
