Congrats to you both! Yes, Scottie, you can do it. And Katie: WOW! :)
Meghan, would it be possible for him to sleep later, and start later? I'm 57 and still hate morning. I love nights. When one job I had wanted me...
This is off-topic, but I'm curious about why you've gone back to blend phonics for him if he's reading well. :) ?
Taking tests again (after they've been discussed and figured out) is a good learning device, if one is forced to stick with tests. Better, though,...
I love it! His image was actually right on, if you think about it. :)
Meggo, ABEKA is good, fine, cool. But as a reading teacher, I assure you that if your son is that devoted a reader, he IS getting what he needs....

Dawn, that's interesting. I've looked into Dancing Bears and was not terribly impressed. I'd love to hear why it's working with him, and what you...
I'm sorry. I responded to the Whole Language comment before talking about your son. Talk about insensitive! I'm just so used to defending it. It...
