Reading

13yo - Perfect! Loves to read. Working through some Andrew Lang fairy books ... again.

11yo - Reading isn't her favorite. She practices every day when we read her science and/or history texts. She recently read Homer Price and picked up the sequel, Centerburg Tales, from the library. I was pleasantly surprised.

7yo - Needs reading instruction every day. Working through Rod & Staff's Bible Nurture and Reader Series Grade 1. We are trying to do the two phonics workbook pages, use the reader, and do the two reading workbook pages each day. I don't think we'll be able to keep up this pace. Sight words are being introduced faster than she can memorize them. BUT, she is doing so much better than I thought she would. I'm amazed that she is sounding out a list of up to 28 words each lesson (ex: bass, buck, fib).
