I am so relieved to have finally decided upon our new reading curriculum for the first grade school year.
After receiving a sample of a Christian Light Education unit in the mail (you can go on their website and order a sample) I was immediately impressed by the rigor expected of first grade students by CLE. We finished The Good and The Beautiful and it just didn't feel like enough. I felt that my daughter needed more of a challenge for this first grade homeschool year.
So I made the purchase! And now you can join me for the unboxing of the first grade reading units.

We switched from the good and beautiful language and math grade one and we have done kindergarten too and my daughter was frustrated a lot with it. We switched to cle and she is so happy and loves the no fluff. Now for the learning to read you can start on light unit 105 if your daughter knows alot already. It is super gentle! We love it!

I used CLE for kindergarten and after we finished we went to TGTB, and still working through TGTB 1st grade, I personally enjoy all that TGTB covers in it's language arts curriculum.

Do we need the teachers guide for reading 1? We have it for learning to read but lately we haven’t really needed it. Their sight work flash cards are so great.

@Heavenlyhomeschool 8 ай бұрын

I actually just ordered the flash cards! I was using the back of the book and hated flipping back and forth. We are in the Learning to Read unit so I use the teachers guide for that, but we will be moving into the level 1 soon and will let you know if I find myself using it!

I'm actually so on the fence between doing TGATB and CLE for first grade next year. I'm worried that TGATB design, while pretty, may be distracting. My main hesitation is the Learning to Read course since it'd be mostly review for her at this point. At the same time, review isn't a bad thing but I don't want her bored either.

@Heavenlyhomeschool 11 ай бұрын

I totally understand this thinking. There is a “Christian light education” families Facebook group that was really helpful for me. They told me we could go quicker through learning to read if it was too easy for my daughter, then take our time with reading 1. I really did love how beautiful TGAB was but it really just felt all over the place with random skills being thrown at my daughter throughout the week. But that was kindergarten!

I completely agree about TGAB I would not recommend cle has placement test too if you need it.
