Firstly I have to say that we have seen a HUGE improvement in Lauren’s feelings towards writing – she is now writing a diary, and last week wrote out a recipe as we were making cottage pie. She wanted to take it to the childminder so that she could make it! she is also reading cookery books , any reading is good reading right?!
I am not seeing guessing, and she is reading fluently, I think this must be translating to her schoolwork too as she no longer works with the teaching assistant as regularly.
All in all I am SO pleased that I found easyread, even if we don’t do it every day because of our swimming and work commitments there are never any complaints about doing it (other than she always wants the game to be a joke and not letter quest ;-))
