How did the Abeka Reading work for y’all? I see you’re using something different next year.

@theselittlesprouts 24 күн бұрын

It worked really well for quite awhile. It really helped him break the words up into chunks to read it faster. We did hit a wall in the handbook for reading at one point and couldn’t get past it. We opted to try as different approach and it is working well for us at this point. I think Abeka is a really solid program for sure and recommend it still. Sometimes pivoting is necessary though for kids to help things click better. Hope this helps!

Did you enjoy these? Have you kept using them? I know youve mentioned you have a reluctant writer. I do also😅 I'm trying to decide if this will be a good fit for 4th grade.

I think The Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading is one of the most underrated phonics/reading curriculums out there. We love it! I love the simplicity and optional activities if needed. We buy a variety of decodable readers for extra practice. We have moved much faster than I expected. My oldest should be finished with it by the end of 1st grade. My 4 year old is on lesson 75. They enjoy it too! And usually ask to do more than one lesson. Though sometimes we split out a lesson over 2-3 days. Depends on what is taught. We like having the separate student book. They like to hold it the whole lesson. We also watch AlphaPhonics to supplement. It helps clarify some of the early blends, digraphs, etc.

I’ve tried a lot of similar reading curriculum. I ended up quitting what you are using now and worked with a reading therapist that guided us to use All About Reading, slightly modified.

@HerChildrenCallHerBlessed Ай бұрын

Hi there! Curious if your still using this? Did your child actually retain the lessons?

@robinriggs4194 Ай бұрын

I have a first grader, but he is struggling. Is it a problem if I start abeka at k5 level?

@theselittlesprouts Ай бұрын

I’m a firm believer in meeting a child where they are at regardless of level or label of grade on a curriculum. If the skills match where he is that is what is important

We did the Mysteries of History one this year and really liked it too

@krissyd3391 Ай бұрын

Would this be good in case our child decides to go back to public school? The more Christian based curriculums worry me that they won't have enough for the "public school" standard.

I don’t like the booster cards I think the words were to hard an it went way to quickly. We watch lots of blending videos on KZfaq and listen to the letter sounds over an over . That has seemed to help the most

@thriftyminia Ай бұрын

11:08 I do dictionary “copy work”, I’ll select 3 grade-appropriate words for my older kid to put in alphabetical order & then just copy the definitions. My younger kid will pick 1 of those 3 words & do the same. HOWEVER, I love your take on this with an encyclopedia. I see how they’re practicing grammar with this too.

@theselittlesprouts Ай бұрын

As I mentioned in this video, we actually ended up not having the time to get into it this year. Lightning Literature took us up until a month or two ago to finish. So I do not have an opinion on it.

@andwill636 Ай бұрын

I love that it works for your middle schooler and also your younger kids. I had never heard of this before, but I think I will try it next year! It’s hard to find things that work for both of my kids with a big age gap.

My super independent daughter wasn’t into Playing Preschool and then I had the same issue with my son that you had with your daughter. He’s way ahead of the content in Playing Preschool so I couldn’t use it. Again. 😑

@brittneybiddy5854 Ай бұрын

When it comes to the booster cards in tgtb, my son didn't like them either. So, I decided to try an activity along with it. Whenever he would say a page of words or sentence correctly. I'd have fish toys or cars set up, and he'd get to catch a fish or race a car for every page that he completed without fuss. Now, he loves doing the booster cards and asked to do them everyday! A huge win!

Ah these are my favorite videos to watch!! You're such an inspiration! I love how you do the projects and the fun things in the curriculum with your kids! I want to do those things too even though I'm not naturally bent that way.

@theselittlesprouts Ай бұрын

Thank you! I really try to make sure I’m honest but also I do not think there are really any “bad” curriculums out there. Just because it didn’t work for us, doesn’t mean it won’t work beautifully for another child or family :)

@_jessci Ай бұрын

This is great! How long are the lessons with the videos?

@theselittlesprouts Ай бұрын

The way we have usually done it is split each country into two lessons. We only did this on Fridays so one country lasted 2 weeks for us. We would do the map and flag and maybe three of the videos and one art lesson, sometimes a recipe. Then the next time we would watch a few more videos do the other art lesson and maybe a recipe if we didn’t the week before or if there was more than one we wanted to try. There are booklists too! I feel like you could really expand this if you wanted to. It’s very customizable

I hope you guys really enjoy the lit guides--I absolutely love the way you described them, because that was exactly my heart in creating them--helping the student to dive in a little deeper into thinking about the books without an overwhelming amount of extra "stuff" involved.

I’m don’t know if you want input from anyone else but I’m planning on moving my kids from Apologia 6 into Denison Math. From what I’ve heard it’s the same method. Mastery with some review like Apologia is so I’m hoping it will be a seamless transition.

I love love love group Learning!! ❤ The kinder prep from The Good and Beautiful is a 30 lesson course that introduces blending and focuses on teaching the vowels. It’s a great next step after they know their letters and sounds. Especially since you don’t need a full year course. I wish there were more courses in this niche. There are so many letters/sounds curriculum and then jumps to formal reading.
