Reading Review

For reading we use teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons , I started this with Riley a year before kindergarten and we got half way through it and she just wasn't getting it , so I knew she was not ready and we just stopped , so a couple weeks before we started school last year we started over and took our time and she finally got it , I am amazed at how well that she can read now , I didn't keep up with everything she read but over the year she read 26 little books like bob books and over 15 my first readers . Some of her favorite books she read -
Mud!
Found and Apple 
llama llama red pajama 
Biscuit 
Good night moon 
busy Dinah dinosaur 
Peanut and Pearls picnic adventure .

Here is a list of some of our favorite Read Alouds we did last year -

Little house in the big woods and Farmer boy - we will continue with this series as well .

Here's a Penny - we liked this except the chapter about Halloween , but you could skip it .

My fathers dragon - Riley liked this book so much I had to buy it for her , kind of a silly book but I guess that's what kids like
