Each week thousands of families are joining the homeschool revolution and braving the challenges of this sometimes terrifying new frontier. While the practice of homeschooling has been around for decades, parents are still asking HOW and WHAT to teach. I was shocked to see how little attention was given to helping parents learn the skills needed to teach meaningful and effective reading lessons at home. In North America, less than 3% of professional teachers receive specific training in Phonics before they graduate. It is no wonder the literacy rate continues to plummet.  Your children need you now more than ever. When your child exceeds academic expectations and standards, your neighbours are going to start talking. Look out! There’s a new homeschool hero in town and that hero is you!
