Hi Julie! All About Reading will follow the same sequence as All About Spelling (so the first book out will follow AAS Level 1). The word topics/sequence of AAS Level 1 will be followed, but the word lists will be expanded. It will include decoding…

First of all, I wanted to say that I just got my Beehive Reader today and it is beautiful!  I love it!  Thank you!   My question is about AAR.  Aren't they all these days?  So, I have a friend that is starting school in September.  She has asked me…

Glad that helped! It's all so time consuming, I know. My 13 yo is in vision therapy, both of my kids need lots of one on one in various subjects--my hat is off to you teaching all of your children!! My 11 yo has struggled with auditory processing,…

Thank you! There's some excellent ideas here. I think I will take all your suggestions for the 4yo until I can better evaluate the needs of the other two. I'm not sure whether to consider DD9 as LD/dyslexic....she's not to the same degree as her old…

LOL, very cute! It's raining cats & dogs here today, I think *I* need a rain "ponko." :-). BTW, I asked Marie about "Nurse." In the most recent printing of L3, nurse is included in the "more words" section, and in the appendix. Merry :-)

Deidre, I think you can go ahead and start with your 4yo. I like to have separate sets of phonogram cards for my kids, but I don't think most people do that. You can buy the phonogram cards separately, if you are like me. Other than that level 2 wi…

I just started using AAS 1 with my 9yo dd.  She is moving through it quite quickly, and we will finish next week.  My 4yo already reads CVC words fluently, and writes a lot of inventive writing (but can spell CVC words).   I'm thinking of starting 4…

I have the same problem with my daughter. She is younger than your son (almost 8) and she doesn't mind writing, but she is always in such a hurry that it comes out very, very sloppy! Recently I noticed that while doing AAS she became bogged down wit…
