Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons

A book called “Teach your kids to read in 100 easy lessons.” This book was such a blessing to me. I later found out that public schools use the same easy lessons in their reading programs. I used this book for a few years. I used it for K-3rd grade.

Learn to Read Kindergarten Edition

Hooked on Phonics Kindergarten and 1st grade. This also helps our son with the speech disability. It comes with a cd that takes you thru the workbook and teaches proper pronunciation of words.

Hooked on Phonics Master Reader

Hooked on Phonics Master Reader. This is a great program that really helps your child’s reading take off.

JumpStart.com - A personalized online 3D world for children ages 3-10!

Our family is one that uses computers. Raina uses them in support of the educational efforts for our kids and Ray works with them for a career. One of the challenges many families face (whether you home school or not) is finding quality, family safe games. Jumpstart has been around a while and provides fun, educational games that our kids have loved. We first bought Jumpstart games before our kids started school and continue to find value in the games. This link is to their new online game service and looks to be great for children.
