Book Reviews of Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons
Book Review: Excellent !!!!! I couldn't ask for an easier way !
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband picked this book out, I was a bit unsure of it at first, I mean only 100 lessons for something so crucial as reading, But my daughter just took off with it she is so excited that she can read on her own now. She is 5. I am now starting with it on my 4 yr. old.Book Review: My Four Year Old is Reading!
Summary: 5 Stars
I recommend this book to any parent or preschool teacher who wants to give children a head-start. The lessons are easy to follow and thoroughly enjoyable. We're on lesson 57 and my 4 year old son is reading like a first grader. Why aren't schools using this method????Book Review: Succeeded when $300 of home-school curriculum didn't.
Summary: 5 Stars
When my husband and I decided to homeschool, we looked at a lot of different curriculums and found one that we thought was just the best thing on the face of the earth. It was $285 for about a year and a half worth of books. After four months of repetitive drills for over an hour each day, my son and I both hated school time.He just didn't see the point of all of those blends he had to repeat over and over. And with a two year old and a two month old I had trouble staying encouraged to do it. Then my friend introduced me to this book. Her daughter who is 1 year and 7 months younger than my son was on lesson 40 and doing wonderfully. I headed straight to the store. By lesson 13 (which was just day 4 for us because of the foundation that took 4 months to lay) when he read his first sentence he was totally hooked. FINALLY all those letters meant something. We usually did 2-3 lessons a day. We have completed the book and he is now reading wonderfully and loving it. Our other curriculum hasn't left the shelf since. This will be our phonics curriculum for teaching all of our children. It alone was worth $300.Book Review: Former Kindergarten teacher wishes she had this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I taught Kindergarten for three years before staying home with our first child. I wish that I had this book when teaching those eager five-year-olds! I am confident that all of my students would have been reading at a second grade level by the end of their Kindergarten year. I have been teaching our 3 1/2-year-old daughter how to read using this book and I am very impressed with the results. From teaching experience I can tell you that there isn't much better than this on the market. It is fun, easy for anyone to teach, and most of all, it works! Don't listen to those advocates of whole language reading--this curriculum uses phonics and teaches comprehension also, which is equally as important. This book will be all you need to turn your child into a successful reader. So, if your child is at a place where alphabet recognition and beginning phonics are boring, get this book! It is worth much more to me that the it costs to buy, and we will be using it to teach all of our children to read.Book Review: This book and flash cards and your kid is reading
Summary: 5 Stars
I am now teaching my third son how to read using our dog-eared 100 easy lessons. He is 5. I taught my other two 4 year old (boys) with this method, using flashcards (phonics) for gentle reinforcement. Don't rely on your school sytem to teach phonics. It won't. Teach your own children and go to bed at night knowing you gave them one of the biggest keys to life anyone can give. Don't trust whole language or any other stupid, unproven method. Trust this method, see results and pat yourself on the back.
