I guess I should add: give them lots of books about their favorite topics when they're just learning as it will keep things interesting. I was so AMAZED at the words that she could read like "friendship" and "cried". It was also really neat how if she said a word wrong, she would realize it later in the sentence because things just didn't make sense & she would go back and correct herself. This is such an amazing thing ~ learning to read. I can't believe how God quickens our minds to learn such things!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394453146621467115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24301312.post-1160682904297867662006-10-12T14:55:00.000-05:002006-10-12T14:55:00.000-05:00Great ideas!

We belong to Children's Book of the Month Club and that is one thing that I will not cut in our budget! I love the idea about the whole playdough thing. Kaitlyn would love that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24301312.post-1160617095674486092006-10-11T20:38:00.000-05:002006-10-11T20:38:00.000-05:00Hi Bec!What wonderful advise!
