Our son has made amazing strides in his reading! At the end of kindergarten, he was barely able to sound out three-letter words. Just four weeks later, he's able to easily read stories from the I Can Read book. The Sonlight curriculum is very easy to use, even for a novice homeschooler. It provides structure, while allowing flexibility to adapt to our son. I love that it has a Christian perspective, but also promotes discussion about topics such as the age of Earth, and what different cultures across the ages believed about gods. Here, Christian (age 6, Core A, Language Arts with Grade 1 Readers, Science A, Handwriting without Tears 1) reads to siblings Carina (4) and Nathan (2).

"After using Sonlight for just one year, I'm completely astonished how well my daughter reads," writes Jessie S of Deridder, LA. "Before we started using Sonlight, she absolutely loathed it. After using Core B with Grade 1 Readers, her reading skills took off and she now reads with amazing fluency. Reading has become enjoyable, and she actually offers to read to her younger siblings, much to their delight." Here, Journie (6) shares a good read with sister Piper (3) and brother Seeley (2).
