Questions about DITHR

[snadig]

Hello ladies,

I just ordered all my stuff for the school year, but had some questions on how the DITHR works. We haven't done a reading study like this before, I thouhgt you just ordered everyone their own levels(i.e 2/3,4/5 etc.)but if we have never done it before would everyone start at the same level and just us the right level of books?

I thought you did this seperate with each child, but after reading more on the board it looks like you do some all together?

So here is where I am at: I have a younger reader(7) finishing up Emerging readers(only for the first part of the year) and middle reader, right at level (11), and a very advance reader(13 can read a book or more in a couple of days). So would you start them all together? I have only ordered the 6/7/8 pack for my older reader. Do I read each of there books also?

DITHR looks fantastic, and I am excited to start it, my older daughter willl love all the reading. But a bit unsure where to start with everyone. This is also our first year with HOD, so I didn't want to overwhelm us either. Any help would be great.
Thanks!!!

Stacey,

These are great questions, and I know the ladies will chime in to help you as time allows. I'll move your post over to the Main Board though first, as all new posts begin on the Main Board.

Blessings,
Carrie
