Hi there... me again with RME in front of me. I started this with my ds at shortly after he turned 4...he knew all his letters and sounds when I started this. I started with lesson one just because I though the review would be good...I also wanted it to be fun...not too challenging and difficult at the beginning. After all he IS plenty young as is yours. I just noticed we only got to lesson 33 before he took off reading on his own...not even a quarter of the way through. I imagine my next ds will not be as easy to teach...this one kind of taught himself. Hence the reason I am even homeschooling in the first place. This was never an option to me until he taught himself the sounds of the letters at 3 and was begging me to teach him to read.

Just remember that you don't have to do every suggested activity. Do only what works for you and your child.

HTH,
Deborah
