Hi , I'm interested in knowing how is she doing now as we seem to be bit behind you
We are in a strange stage where it is hard to say if DD is reading some words or if they are sight word. She seems to have more interest in it if the word is familiar but then she is sounding it out phonetically. I was playing with her fridge magnets and I wrote stop. She came to me and said s-t o-p stop then she saw ri next to each other and said it says r-i ri like in her name (it is correct her name ends with ri). She also "reads" h-at hat, m-at mat and c-at cat. I'm pretty sure she is not really reading the word yet, she is just practicing her phonics with the word she knows. She might read d-ad daddy even if it says dad so there seems to be lot of guessing going on too.
