Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons

I have been trying to teach my daughter to read since last year but I don't know where to start and how to do it. I tried something that obviously didn't work out and its frustrating for my child and myself until I bought this book making my life easy. My daughter is always excited and is always looking forward for this reading lessons and for only few lessons that we started she is already reading. Really amazing and I'm so glad I found this book which is so helpful. I just wished I bought this book earlier.

My five year old daughter is learning sounds, how to read words and comprehending sentences. She actually requests this book everyday. There is some frustration at times, but she has more successful moments than frustrations.

Very good for my frustrated little reader. He was having a hard time putting the sounds in his words together, this helps a lot.

As a special education teacher I have used the Reading Mastery system since 1990. Teach Your Child To Read In 100 Easy Lessons is the BEST of that very same program. Whether you are a teacher (new or seasoned), a teacher's assistant, a tutor, a parent, a mentor...you will find this well worth the time and effort in teaching a child who is new to reading or a struggling reader. It is based on the direct instruction approach, teaching letters as "sounds", and is scripted. Now, I know most teachers don't exactly like a scripted approach, but try it! I've taught PreKindergarten special needs students to read before they left PreK. IT WORKS!! All my students began Kindergarten in "average" to "above average" reading levels! What an awesome way for a child with developmental delays to start their educational career. Even now I'm tutoring a Kindergartener 2 hours a week using this book and the progress is excellent. So go ahead, try it. You can't lose and the child wins!

When your child is ready to start learning to read I really recommend this book. My first son sailed through this book early. My second son is taking his time but he is still learning very well. Each child is sooo different that you just have to pay close attention to see if they are truly ready. No matter what, remember that learning is truly enjoyable. You are setting the example that they will follow all through life. So have fun. Cuddle on the couch and make learning to read so much fun together!
