Maybe I should have ordered level 1? The thing is, though, he's not ready to actually read at all yet...Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02241166473325365049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30871656.post-22735529621405729432013-02-26T14:33:48.728-06:002013-02-26T14:33:48.728-06:00Thank you so much for sharing!

Now, he reads well. The stickers, the lessons laid out in an easy to teach way, the rules that actually make sense...

The kids school uses "Johnny can spell" or maybe "johnny can read" It is flashcards and it is a bit dry, but I don't know how exactly I learned to read without learning all these phonograms, but I do now understand why I never learned to spell. In Kinder, I think Connor will get through all 70 sounds of this program at least once. He'd done a handful before we got to London. I'm making him review ALL of them b/c basically I'm "officially" learning them for the first time. It makes so much more sense to me in helping them learn to read. phonogrampage.com goes with johnny can spell; it's free and you can listen to all of the sounds for you, from single letter on through. AGain, pretty dry, but helpful to me as I am trying to help Connor learn. <br /><br />You are such an awesome mom and teacher!Melissa D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03804181217009656927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30871656.post-51828962863984803372013-02-20T13:42:28.089-06:002013-02-20T13:42:28.089-06:00I just had a friend asking me about phonics progra...I just had a friend asking me about phonics programs today.
