We are reading...

What did I just say - YEP  you read it right we have a new reader in our house!!  Sweet Luke read his first book last week and what a privilege it was to be sitting right  next to him as he read it.

We are using All About Reading for our reading curriculum as well as BOB books.  I love both of these curriculums and will switch back and forth from week to week to keep things fresh for my Lukester!!  One of the things I love about this curriculum is the hands on with letters.  We have letter tiles that we use and build word with and practice sounds out.  It is very hands on and I think makes a huge difference in how we approach learning to read.

Nathan is also doing a good bit of reading with Konos - he is on his second book this year.  He is currently reading Toothpaste Millionaire.

We also read a chapter out of a book everyday during/after lunch.  This is one of my favorite parts of our day as everyone is home and we all sit together for lunch and finish up with a little reading.  We just finished up reading How to Eat Fried Worms.  I think everyone enjoyed it.

Right now we are reading My Father's Dragon.  Not sure what we plan to read next but you can be sure we will be reading!!
