[quote=Anonymous]I taught mine with the 100 lessons book right after he turned 5 and it's gone well. I chose that because he was trying to memorize all the words by sight on his own and getting them wrong (ie saying cat when the word was can)... The book incorporates some phonics which helped a lot. We had some issues with him not really learning much of anything in K that resulted in him skipping a grade ahead (not DC area). We move a lot and plan to put him back with same aged peers by late elementary, when some sort of acceleration should be available by then for him to continue to be challenged. Otherwise it's been wonderful to hand him a chapter book to read and occupy himself quietly for an hour or more. He can read anything he wants and has (imo) a large knowledge base for his age.
