Reading
So in my pre-unschooling
days, we used the “ Teach Your Child to Read in 100 easy lessons”
program. Lately my 5 year old has been sounding out words and
spelling things and writing things on her own. I got out the reading
program the other day to see where she’s at. By the end of the book,
it’s supposed to be a 2nd grade level. She knows all of her letter
sounds and really just needs to remember them, and learn to
distinguish between b’s and d’s and p’s sometimes. To make it
easier, I’m going to label a few things in the house like I did with
my older girls. Bed is a really good thing to label because it looks
like a bed, with the tall ends of the band the d as bedposts.
