My youngest is finally beginning reading thanks to AAR. She has dyslexia along with other learning disabilities and we're going through the pre-reading level. We plan on adding in AAS this coming year. So thankful for this product!

How is it going? My daughter have Auditory processing disorder, sequencing processing, dyslexia, and comprehension problems. I was hoping AAR can help my daughter. Many also recommend the Orton Gillingham program.

@@bayamonrican It’s been helping a lot. We like to mix it up with ABC, See Hear Do for fun. She’s still on the pre-reading level. We take it slow around here and go at her pace. AAR is an Orton Gillian program. We were recommended several, but AAR looked the most engaging.

My daughter learned to read with the book “Storybook Treasury of Dick and Jane and Friends” plus a book called “the read-it-yourself storybook” my mom saved from when I learned to read! They sound similar to the reading pathways!

So cool. We’re in our first year of kindergarten and use explode the code with the good and the beautiful currently. We are continuing with both good and the beautiful, explode the code and have all about spelling to include for first grade. Also, we’re giving first language lessons for the well trained mind a try as a loop in since I’ve heard great things with the oral narration and memory work. It’s great we can start interventions earlier and immediately for our kiddos because we homeschool. Look forward to hearing more updates.

So helpful. Thank you. I have a struggling reader and have been wondering about all about spelling to teach reading. I currently use phonics pathways and it really is fantastic and is working. Not to mention it is inexpensive. We also use Learn to Read from Easy Peasy (free) which my son likes a lot better. We want nothing more than to see our babies read fluently so they will be able to read to learn. Slow and steady wins the race. You're doing a great job mama! ❤

Do you find ETC or Blast Off more effective?
@TheHomeschoolConvert
7 ай бұрын
I think they’re both valuable resources depending on what you’re looking for. We just use ETC now since my girls can do it independently, only sometimes needing my assistance when a new phoneme is introduced. Blast Off was really helpful in establishing some fluency but is much more parent/teacher involved, which is what one of my daughters needed at the time. Her younger sister is a strong reader and didn’t use it at all but has done ETC since she started schooling and loves it.
