LAmom Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Wondering if anyone that uses Phonics Pathways also uses Reading Pathways and/or the newer Boosters book. Which one, if any, do you like best? One is pyramids to practice and the other games? Is that right? Thanks for any input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoxcell Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 We use Phonics Pathwyas and Reading Pathways. I have never heard of Boosters, but my dd loves reading the pyramids in Reading Pathways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoxcell Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Man now I want to get the Boosters book also. You stinker!:lol: I love Phonics Pathways! It is completely basic and straight forward but it works and I can adapt it and make it as fun as I want. I have tried other phonics programs but always come back to it.

nitascool Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 We use PP and RP. We start using Reading Pathways after finishing CVC. Honestly Bosters is not necessary for a homeschooler. I would only get it if... 1. Your little one is really struggling to read CVC and two-consonant blends after pg. 60 in Phonics Pathways. 2. You are doing a co-op. 3. Your child is an only and you have extra time to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAmom Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Thank you! I will look into getting Reading Pathways for now. I don't have much time for extra games, etc. I think Reading Pathways will be just the extra bit I am looking for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElizabethB Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Games are fun every once in a while, you can use my free game, it is fun and easy to practice for a change: http://www.thephonicspage.org/On%20Phonics/concentrationgam.html You can also use it with multiple children at once.
