My 4 year old is on break from preschool and I've been trying to work with her on some reading skills and getting her used to the idea of homeschool (which she is really excited about). She's a few lessons into Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. She loves it! LM has always been my "independent reader". She loves books. She likes to "read" them all day every day. When I read to her, I have to give her another book to hold or she'll interrupt me the whole time I'm reading. Last year I read about a free website that works with beginning readers called Teach Your Monster to Read. SM has already completed the 2 levels (we're hoping for more levels soon). LM is half way through the second level now.
I like that it is free. The girls love that they can create a monster and add accessories to it as they advance through the levels. One fault that I have found is that the narrator is difficult to understand at times. This makes some of the listening levels harder because it sounds like he's saying one sound but its actually a different one.
