My son Charlie should be none as the charmer because he’s made a friend with a local business owner her who owns a Resale shop. The gentleman’s name is Shaun.
Anytime Charlie walks into his store and finds anything he likes Shaun usually just tells him to take it home with him. Although this has to stop because I want Charlie to work for the items he receives.
As a mom I don’t want Charlie to think everything is handed to him on a “Silver Platter.” My parents was the same way if I wanted something I had to work for it and it meant more to me and it will to Charlie as well.
Just look at that “FACE” above and the smile. Can’t you tell “Charlie is a Charmer”!! If not then your not looking closely enough or Charlie has you fooled.
The owner of the Resale shop Shaun works with David at ATS Drilling . When Shaun found out Charlie was being homeschooled he asked David if I would like to use Hooked On Phonics.
Once David came home from work David asked me. I told David I would and I had been thinking about ordering Hooked on Phonics for Charlie. Once I got the extra money because it’s expensive.
Shaun told David we could have the set he had which was for 1st grade although he didn’t know if everything was in the box. The next morning he brought it to work with David to bring home to me.
I haven’t had a chance to make sure everything is in the box. But with what we do have I know its enough to start teaching Charlie and I can’t wait to begin using Hooked On Phonics.
I just wish I could have purchased Hooked On Phonics for Charlie when he was littler as well as Suzzane. I know Suzzie would have done better with her reading.
Although back then as a single mom I couldn’t afford Hooked On Pnonics and I regret that. Although now I’m Blessed as I have David and he helps me get the resources I need for Charlie for school.
If you have used Hooked On Phonics for First Grade what did you think of the resources? Did Hooked On Phonics help your children out or not. If you didn’t like Hooked On Phonics why not?
I have a question for you is there something else you think that works better than Hooked On Phonics for First Grade? If so what is it and where can I find it at?
