Thanks so much for answering! That really helps give a clearer picture of where you're at with your daughter as far as phonics instruction goes.
You are correct that 100EZ Lessons is a phonics program, so you've done some phonics with her already. That has gotten her underway with reading which is a good start. One thing that is important to note is that 100 EZ Lessons is one of the phonics programs that doesn't go as far with phonics instruction as many other programs, so when you finish that program you need something else to finish out phonics instruction. So, you're not alone in this area. You just have more phonics to do before your daughter's phonics instruction is complete. You can finish out phonics in a variety of ways, but whatever you choose I'd lean toward a program that has your daughter reading on a daily basis from phonics controlled reading material (so that she'll feel successful). Of the two programs we carry, I'd lean toward either doing Reading Made Easy from the beginning (and moving faster through what she already knows) or the other option is to pick up The Reading Lesson in the middle of the program and finish it out. Either option would work.
Some of the instruction will be a repeat, but if she really knows her phonics (as a child needs to) then she'll move quicker through what she already knows. If she's not moving quickly that just means she needs more practice and there's no need to rush. Set the timer, keep the lessons short, and make sure to systematically teach phonics 5 days a week. You'll see progress! Phonics typically takes more than one year to complete! Blessings,
Carrie
