So far in my homeschooling journey, I have successfully taught 3 children to read. I realize that compared to most "teachers" that this not a very high number considering they usually teach 20 or so kids to read at one time, but as a mom I feel a little proud of this accomplishment. I am now teaching my 4th child to read. She is doing fairly well and is enjoying Catholic Heritage Curricula's "Little Stories for Little Folks" so much. She really feels as if she has accomplished something when she has successfully completed one of her "little pink books" as we call them around here! She loves reading about Nan, Ann, Tom and Pat and their adventures, and sometimes, misadventures!
I don't think I will ever switch to another phonics program to teach any of the rest of my children to read. "Little Stories for Little Folks" is just a perfect fit for our homeschool and for my children.
