...my ds1 just turned 6 last week.
He has been really struggling wtih literacy -he doesnt really enjoy anything that involves sitting for any length of time!!! - he has an IEP at school and I have been using stuff at home, inc jolly phonics and toe by toe, but the best has been the headsprout online programme which has been great (would recommend to everyone with a 4-7 year old! Headsprout. com)
Anyway, I was delighted when he moved up a reading level just before half term - the school uses the All Aboard reading scheme by Ginn and he is now on level 4. A website resource I found states that All Aboard level 4 is Reading Age of 5.5 - 6.5....is that right? and, if it is right, should I stop worrying about ds1 literacy?
He has much more confidence now which was my main objective and he seems happy to read to me, which he REALLY wasnt before.
Would appreciate some views from people who know what they are talking about!!!!
Thanks.
