One of the subjects that I most enjoy teaching my sons is reading. I love seeing the expression on their faces when they realize that they are reading all by themselves.
I use The Ordinary Parent's Guide to Teaching Reading. I love how it's broken up into small, simple lessons.
After a lesson we celebrate with "high five's!"
What is your favorite subject to teach?

ReplyDeleteAgreed!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you that this is a joy. I hate teaching to read. Iove teaching all the other subjects but not HOW TO read..
ReplyDeleteMy girls are 9 and 10 now and so reading nicely on their own - most of the time, one or the other has a book in front of her! But our favorite time of day, hands down, is still their literature time, when they read a level-appropriate book. I cuddle up with whoever is reading and she reads aloud to me. We wouldn't have to do it this way, but we all love it...and it allows me to see how they're progressing, too. :^)
ReplyDeleteI can see my sons being in high school and still loving the togetherness that reading brings. :-) Thanks for taking the time to comment.
