reading aloud in DITHOR

[gotpeace91]

What levels are they supposed to read aloud to you? All of them? My ds is in level 4/5 and my dd is in level 3.
Thanks,
Leah

Good morning, Leah! The DITHOR guide notes in the plans when they are to read aloud to you. Level 2/3 reads all (or most) of their reading out loud to you, and Level 4/5 suggests 3-4 pages be read aloud to you. The DITHOR Appendix has a chart of oral reading skills for dc to work on and master one at a time. This has made a huge impact on my dc's oral reading skills and continues to be something we work on even as my ds goes into upper grades. I think you'll enjoy hearing the improvements your dc make in their oral reading as they move through the list.

In Christ,
Julie

Oh OK, Thank you Julie. We did Biography Day 1 today and I got confused on the second page of Biography-Day 1 where it says "Have students read the assigned pages for day 1 on their own." This was for all levels and I thought I remembered you saying to someone else that they should be reading aloud. Now I have looked ahead at the next few days and I see that it states each day whether to have them read aloud or not.
Thanks again,
Leah
