Teaching_Three Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 My son is 8, soon to be 9 in the fall. I am planning his third grade, and I'm wondering what reading program, if any should I use? He does read well, I would say he is on grade level, if not above... have never had him tested. We are not big on workbooks. I'm not sure what I should be doing for reading though? Plan on using HOD loosely as a guide but I did not want to use drawn into the heart of reading program.Any help would be great, I hope I have expressed myself clearly enough :001_smile:. PS. We are working on going 100% Charlotte Mason, that is the school of thought that best lines up with our family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicholsonhomeschool Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 My third grader is also a very comfortable and eager reader and I haven't had him in any program. We go to the library once a week or so -- he picks a few books and I pick a few. And when we run into excerpts from books in WWE that excite him, he enjoys getting the whole book to read. That has introduced him to many "classics." So, that's a long way of saying... no program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teaching_Three Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 That's what I was thinking of doing but was not sure if I needed to do more at this age. I just want to make sure I'm not missing skills by not using a program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
