![]() I read the hobbit to my son, and am reading the first Harry Potter to him now, (I have never read HP, so I'm doing it for selfish reasons! ![]() ![]() This works fine in sports, but reading is not a race. The acelerated reading program has worked against him I'm afraid. He tries to read higher level books than he should, merely to "score" more points than the next kid. His reading level has suffered (IMO) because he's not comprehending the way he should. I just don't think he's ready yet, he's only in second grade. He enjoyed the Harry Potter when they lived with the Muggles, (because he could relate to it, Dudley beating on Harry was particullarly interesting) but all the wizard stuff can get boring pretty quick. Potions? Transfiguration? Whatever! ![]() ![]() ![]()
