I get asked quite often what curriculum I used to teach my boys to read well, spell well, and most importantly LOVE reading. And my secret isn’t in WHAT, but HOW.
 I’ve successful taught three of my boys how to read without using a curriculum. Instead I used Charlotte Mason’s method, as outlined in her book Home Education (instections start at page 199.)
The great thing about this method is that you can personalize it every step of the way so your child enjoys the lessons. You can move at your child’s pace so they don’t become bored or frustrated. And you can customize the method to meet your child’s unique needs (including dyslexia!).
The only three things you need to teach your child to read are:
📚Books (preferably your childs favorite books!)
🔤 Moveable Alphabet (Montessorioutlet.com)
📝 Paper and pencil
One thing that you dont need, but is helpful, is some type of phonics program or a list of spelling patterns. I use Words Their Way.

In this video I explain how the method works and show clips of what that looks like, but in my Patreon you can see real-life lessons in each stage of the process as well as written instructions ⬇️
