Reading Journal: Homeschool Elementary Reading Curriculum

By Kim Sorgius

When one of my daughters began seriously struggling with our reading curriculum, I had to do something drastic. I knew there were some underlying vision issues causing her to be a little below level, but the main issue was that she hated the subject.We needed a change. So I dusted off my M.A.Ed. and created a reading curriculum that would fit ANY book that piqued her interest. Together she and I created something that changed everything.Meet the Reading Journal.This book is the perfect DIY homeschool reading curriculum for elementary grades. You can find the step-by-step process for creating your own curriculum here.*Builds Essential Reading SkillsThe Reading Journal is comprised of 30 unique lessons that focus on vocabulary, word study, comprehension, and higher level thinking skills. The journal features each lesson 6 times throughout the year providing just the right amount of practice without too much monotony.*Includes Biblical Worldview ContentAbout once a week, students are asked to evaluate the content of their book based on God's truth. They will compare/contrast with Scripture, consider a character's behavior/influence, and even write out how they might share Jesus with the character.*Designed For Elementary StudentsOnce a child learns how to read, he/she needs to continue skill building throughout the elementary years. The Reading Journal provides the necessary practice for grades 2-5 while still allowing the student to chose what he/she would most enjoy reading.
