Dithor Question

Post by GinainMD » Wed Oct 13, 2010 6:41 am

Hello to all! I wanted to know if anyone has used the alternative ERs for Dithor or are these not compatible? My dd just completed Prairie School in the ERs so we have plenty of time to decide but this would make choosing the books much easier for me. Thanks everyone.

I'm not sure if this will help answer your question or not, but I saw you didn't have a response yet, so here goes :)

My DD is ready for the instruction of DITHOR, and she can read the ERs without major issues, but she hates to read. So to make it more fun for her, I'm picking and choosing her readings. If you order the package set for DITHOR it'll come with a sample book list that has books from all reading levels that fit each genre. So I picked a biography that is a month or two behind her comfortable reading level. So like, if she's at a 3.5 reading level comfortably, I picked a 3.3 (I can't remember the levels off hand) I'll keep doing this, upping it a month or two each time until it's slightly challenging, then keep it at that level until it becomes easy.

So in other words, I think you can choose any book at any level in that genre when it comes to DITHOR.
