Excellent comment on the phonetic words thing. The reason this whole thing came about to begin with is I was reading with his brother and he would spout off the next word or phrase. SO I sat down to read green eggs and ham to him...well he read it to me. He recognized the pattern and then the words. So it appeared that he was reading the whole thing because he does recognize words and he gets the concept and can predict what should come next. Even better than his older 7yr old brother does. So yes perhaps he is bored. Also I only started the flash cards because he watched a few phonics songs on youtube and so I figured I should support that.

thank you
