4KookieKids Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 My boy finished spelling and writing the words in section I a few weeks ago, and is plodding through J right now. In the meantime, he's read and re-read all 5 of the recommended books for after section I. I was amazed, honestly, because he'd never read anything on his own before (I was pretty skeptical he'd be able to, even as I was checking the first book out of the library...), and certainly never re-read things for enjoyment. Well, things have completely turned around since he started reading "real" books (his words), but I'm not sure what to do know. I don't want to go on to the next list of books and perhaps mar the little confidence he's built up now by giving him something too advanced. But I also don't want to limit him to those first five books when he's bored with them and wants more. I feel like I need a very delicate balance between challenging him and not shutting him down in frustration again (we'd been fighting over reading and writing for a long time before finding Spalding). What should I do? Can anyone recommend other books for this stage of things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
