Yes, my kids ...Monica! Thanks for your comment :0)<br /><br />Yes, my kids are in French Immersion. We love it. It's been a great thing for them. I don't think it's for all kids - but if it works for your family, it's a great thing. I think it's one of those best kept secrets out there. Smaller classes, great kids, and wonderful teachers. We love it.<br /><br />I think it's a wonderful choice, education-wise.<br /><br />So much to say on teaching kids to read. There's a world of reading readiness stuff. Main thing: read read read. We did a Learn to Read Using the Book of Mormon with Peirce that I thought was a sound approach. It worked quite well. I never pushed it a lot though. My kids weren't really early readers - but they do love reading!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16541938601405548278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380096444476193899.post-38944712594459548312009-12-04T23:00:49.623-07:002009-12-04T23:00:49.623-07:00I noticed the French, was is just for this book, o...I noticed the French, was is just for this book, or are you in a French Immersion program? What are your thoughts on bilingual and immersion programs in Calgary? I love reading your blog, you are such an educated mom, I hardly comment, but you know what? it is very inspiring, I love it when you talk about different books, my little two year old is so in love with books already, it is such a great blessing! Any tips on teaching children how to read? so many questions, so little time! ;)Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06610145812461706754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2380096444476193899.post-4358209587060735972009-12-04T22:09:06.039-07:002009-12-04T22:09:06.039-07:00I've watched the show are you smarter then a 5...I've watched the show are you smarter then a 5th grader.
