Posted by Cindy Reading: Seans reading level was pretty much stuck at a high first grade level last year. Not only that, but if I took a break it seemed his reading would slip back even further. But now he can read at a beginning 4th grade level. I can even let him read on his own, and he enjoys picking his own books to read. He still is learning more of the larger multi-syllable words, and the difference here is that he is retaining them. Writing: Before Audiblox Sean could only spell a few words correctly, and I couldnt read his writing at all. Now he can spell many high frequency words. Its great to be able to take a break and not worry that about him having to relearn them all. In general he can get much more done than ever before, and he is a lot easier to teach because he learns new concepts much faster. Hes definitely come along way this year. Cindy.

Since my last post there really hasnt been a week where I havent noticed some improvement. When I look back on the year its really amazing the amount of progress Sean has made. Looking back on it the subject that improved the fastest was math at about 3 months into doing Audiblox he was suddenly caught up to grade level. Hes been doing math at his grade level ever since. Over the summer we really didnt do much math, but when we did return to it he didnt need much review. For him thats a drastic change.
