Shelbi – You’ll have to tell more about your method, cause I am not sure where to go from here. My girls already know most of their letters, know some of the sounds they make, and Lisa even writes, on her own, letters. I feel like my kids could learn how to read soon if I knew more of what to do.

I don’t even own flashcards. 🙂 My kids can already identify most of their letters, but some in the group cannot yet so I tried to make sure that we made it accessible for all, thus the various learning methods. If only I had known a good counting song… wait, just thought of one: The Ants Go Marching. Dang.

I was an art education major for about a year. I did a semester visiting some classrooms in different schools and co-teaching some lessons. I really wanted/want to be a teacher, but the timing just wasn’t right. But, I guess I get my opportunity with my kids, the others in this group, and my various callings at church. It all works out in the end. I love teaching, even when the kids are crazy (my Primary class…).

I hope your little guy enjoys it! I hope maybe you can find some people to do it with – It does make it seem more “school-like” I think than just having Mommy teaching. Maybe ask around your local blogging community?But, Moms are the best teachers either way.

Thanks Katie!
