An Emerging Reader!!



Here is our 6 year old son C, reading!!!!!!! We are using "How to teach your child to read in 100 Easy Lessons" for his daily reading practice, but he got on a kick today reading these little easy readers I purchased a few years ago. He read 6 of them! He felt quite proud that he could read a "whole book". You may have to turn the volume up on your speakers, as he is speaking rather quietly. And you will notice that many words he is still sounding out so this is basically de-coding practice. But is that not the basis of fluency?

Very exciting!
