We love these books
We're very happy with the Pathways curriculum. My children enjoy the stories, too. Sometimes we find there are too many workbook pages to go with a certain chapter, so we skip one or two.

Good reading comprehension and phonics review for the More Busy Times book
I appreciate there is a workbook to go along with the stories. For the most part, I like all the exercises. We skip ones that ask the student to phonetically mark words. I am using this with a kindergartner and have found that even though she is more than capable of completing each exercise, it is sometimes too much writing for her. To get around this, I do some of the exercises orally and write for her. I like that the workbook is a mix of phonics review and reading comprehension. She needs both of these at this level and I like that we can accomplish it with one workbook.

These readers are amazing My daughter is interested in reading them and she is now reading fluently The stories are interesting and there are new words listed at the bottom of each page so that you can discuss them before a child tries to read them Also the companion workbook is great It reinforces spelling skills as well as reading comprehension This is an extremely well done set and I expect us to continue using it up through the last one

Why did you choose this?
Price. Tried and true method for covering material with minimal expense for mom and dad.
We absolutely love these. I've seen my kids grow a lot using these, especially with their reading and comprehension skills.
We use the Pathway readers to teach whole word reading, following what Charlotte Mason teaches in the book Home Education. These work books aren't "Charlotte Mason" style but they are a great…
