Book Review of A Home Start in Reading (Grades K-3)

A Home Start in Reading (Grades K-3)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 1


Easy to read and understand, multitude of ideas/activities, very concise how-to that made me think I can do this without any "program", and she explains very why she says to do things how she does...common sense, without all the fluff and argument that other books on the subject contain to convince you they are right about how to teach reading. A book I think all parents ought to read whether they plan to teach their children themselves or not...describes how children learn, how their feelings are involved/affected by teaching methods and timing...the best resource on reading I've found so far...a great writer can really do all this in a short little booklet!
