Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons3744388

If you can give your child a thirst for reading, the complete globe opens to him. We noticed it with Joy, who at 6 was reading at a level twice her age. But for Joy, a visual learner, the method had been an easy, practically effortless procedure. When we tried to use the exact same strategies with Hope, we identified two things: Hope is not a visual learner and we actually had no technique to teach reading! So with Hope we had to start from scratch. We identified ourselves bouncing from one approach to another, scatterbrained, but too poor to place out the megabucks needed for any of the flashier applications. And as you might expect, we did not make a lot of progress. Then we stumbled across this book! What a need it met.

Phonics-primarily based, easy to adhere to, inexpensive, nonconsumable, and self-contained, it was all that we were looking for. There are no workbooks, no flashcards, practically nothing fancy—just you, one-on-one with your child for 20 minutes a day.

Based on the nationally effective DISTAR plan, this program has been adapted for mother or father and child use, and seems custom-made for the home school setting. Yes, this method does use visual clues in the first 80 lessons, but then they drop the clues and your child will take off working. We were doubtful at first, but soon after going by way of it with four children and hearing hundreds of “success” stories, we're believers! Following 100 lessons your child will be reading at a strong 2nd grade level.

My only complaint includes the stories. There is a new story each and every lesson, commencing at lesson 13, and they are also silly for my tastes. But they were the highlights for all our youngsters, so I won't complain too loudly! Hope, soon after 50 lessons, was reading smoothly, creating quick “stories,” and on her own picked up and read other "easy" books. She finished the book before her 5th birthday and effortlessly moved into a 3rd grade reading text. Grace also finished the system while still 4, though there were days that we more than exceeded the twenty minutes prescribed.
