Avarie is 6, in first grade and learning to read. She is a young 1st grader with a late summer birthday. If in public school she would have missed the cut off and been in Kindergarten this year - another benefit of homeschooling! Ezra just turned 5 in February, so both are super excited about books!
Getting the box from Academic Success in the mail was like Christmas for my kids! They were so excited to open it and look at the Little Books!

The Instructor Guidelines is a great resource. It explains how long you should be reading the Little Books, about 15-30 minutes daily. The books need to be read in numerical order because the sounds and words in each book build on previous books.
Each book includes Pronunciation Guide, Sound Practice and Word Practice before your student starts reading. As the student reads, there are Comprehension Questions for the parent to ask as well as little reminders to give your child praise when he finishes a page. At the end of the book, there is a Coming Attractions section to prepare your student for new words in the next book.
