I needed to share this with everyone! My daughter, Bella age 7 almost 8, has had some trouble reading- she doesn't seem to be a site word reader, or really a phonics reader but loves reading. I kept believing that this was a maturation issue and as soon as she was ready it would click and now, it is!
She isn't jumping into chapter books or anything but she is able to read! We are working with a reading program that is geared towards helping children keep the skills they learned during the school year and it has kept me organized. We don't use this as our only reading experience, so it is very beneficial.
I am glad, I didn't push her and gave her space! She chooses whether she wants to do the reading program or not, and we continue to read lots and lots of rich stories.
