I am looking ahead to our next school year (we'll begin in June), and I would like some advice from all of you wise MP ladies. My just-turned-5yo daughter is finishing up FSR C alongside the Jr. K program. She worked through the Jr. K alphabet books before starting FSR and the Core Skills Phonics books. She has done much but not all of the writing. I am thinking we can do the K program as written, but just have her finish FSR through Book E and continue working on reading fluency using the Spalding suggested booklist for early readers (I've had success with this list).
We could go back through and do any missed writing portions in FSR as well. I like to teach cursive in K using another method (Peterson), so that would be something new for her next year.
How does this sound? I know FSR leads into Storytime Treasures, but I feel like that might be overkill for K. Or would it be better phonics-wise to just keep going with the language arts progression? Thanks in advance for your help!
