[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]100 easy lessons is good for a kid that will sit still. I used it to teach my older child successfully at 5. My younger child was not the sit-still type so I used the Homer app along with a lot of tactile letter stuff to practice spelling simple words at age 4. In retrospect I probably started the younger one way too early, but oh well, he learned to read. As others have mentioned, phonemic awareness is very important. Practice saying the individual sounds of the words and asking what is the first sound, what is the last sound, what sound is in the middle. From experience, first sound is easiest, last sound takes more work, middle sound is hardest. Good luck and don't get too disappointed if it doesn't click. Some kids just don't really take to it until around 6.[/quote] This. [/quote]
