Reading

Anytime you can use the library, do it. Reading is so important because it makes your student a better learner and helps create imagination. Below you will find everything you need to help your child continue her path to literacy. The downloadable packets from Years 1-3 are workbooks that correlate with the readers listed in the 'Print Versions' column. For anything that you need to buy in print, we recommend buying it used. If you need help finding a copy of something, you can reach out -- we will help you. This page does not include the reading list for the year: that is listed on the Year page you are using.

If you choose not to use the Treasures reading program, you can still download the reading and grammar workbooks and incorporate them into your language arts program as they are not dependent on the reading texts. In fact, you will find them to be immensely useful in helping your child further his reading skills. For reading, simply read lots of books together and continue working on having your child advance through leveled readers.

From Year 4-6, we switch over to a more writing centered text: Houghton Mifflin's English series. These are excellent books and making scheduling easy. The textbooks include reading, writing, and grammar instruction. These textbooks are impossible to find online as PDFs, so bite the bullet and buy them used (they are less than $10 used).
