He started with level 2 when he did the placement test so we weren’t able to try out level 1. Before that, we were using A Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading and we loved that. It’s way more simple than all about reading but it did the job 👌🏼 the only reason we stopped and switched over was because our charter school didn’t approve of that book as a curriculum. But we would’ve just stuck with that if we could!
@@homeschoolingboymom oh okay. We are starting to look at reading curriculums and I am having a very difficult time trying to decide on which one to use.
@@RikinaR. if your child is eager to learn to read or a fast learner, the parent guide book would work great and it’s way cheaper. The all about reading is good for kids who want to play games and who need more practice (they include lots of practice pages and readers and flashcards and games). It’s more pricey but worth the price if it fits your child’s needs 😁 hope that helps! I know how overwhelming it could be to choose. There’s plenty of other programs out there! 🤯 these two I’ve mentioned are the only ones we’ve used
@@homeschoolingboymom yes, all the extras with All About Reading looks like a lot. I just worry about gaps if we don’t use all about reading because so many people recommend it. And it blows my mind that there are free reading curriculums and that some are so expensive.
Did you also do All About Reading levels 1 and 2?
