Story time...

[LovingJesus]

We finished the biography for story time before the 20 days allotted. I went ahead and went onto another biography. Is their a reason to stretch one out to 20 days? Will it impact the program overall if we do more than one book for a genre? The book we did was Louis Braille, and it was on the shorter side.

Thank you!

The idea is to read in shorter segments for better retention, and to teach narration easier. With that said if it is a shorter book we sometimes do two for the genre and it has not been a problem for us.

I read two biographies because mine were very short, and I had a thing with inter-library loan where I didn't get the one in time so we started with a different one and then read the other after I got it. Anyway, with all the others I have stretched them out, it was definitely too much to read two in the 20 days so I figured keep it to one. The one we are reading now (fantasy), I think the sections are too long reading 1/20 of it each day. But we are plugging ahead!
