"The Sonlight Language Arts program is exceptional," writes Erin J of Alberta, Canada. "Cayleigh (7) went from not being able to read a word at the start of 1^st grade, to being able to read anything at the end of it. It's an amazing curriculum. Cayleigh now devours every book she can get her hands on. The emphasis on reading and the sheer variety of books has sparked a love of the written word in all my children, who I now find bringing books to church, friends' houses, and even the playground!"  Here, Caden (9), Cayleigh (7), Liana (6), Josiah (4), look at their Sonlight books while Samara and Sofia (2) sit in.

"One of the benefits of Sonlight is that my kids get to align themselves with God through exploring God's world," writes Helena T of Kemaman, Malaysia. "Sonlight is great for our kids because they love listening to stories. They have tons of questions as we read, and I found that their literacy and vocabulary improved (since English is not our first language). I thank the Lord for Sonlight!" Pictured, Yovela (4), Odelia (6), and Bezalea (1.5) review their memory verse for the week.

Sonlight's Language Arts programs are so versatile. This year is the third time through Language Arts 1 for our family, and I have been able to tailor the program to meet the needs of each individual child. If one child needs more work with a certain concept, there are plenty of extra activities in the Instructor's Guide that I can choose from to reinforce that concept. But if they catch on quickly, I have the option of leaving out the extra activities. We also love Sonlight's choices for Readers. The books in Language Arts 1 are familiar favorites that the little ones often pull off the shelf for Mommy to read. Here, Katie (7) reads to Mom as Meghan (3) and Karson (2) eagerly join in for the story.
