LOE Foundations helped my DD with raising awareness with speech articulation and different sounds in vowels especially. We went through AAR level 1 before LOE Foundations and LOE Foundations was a much better fit for us and caused less frustration over all than AAR. I was also remediating problems with reading that arrived from a combination of vision problems and guessing after a year in public school with the vision problems. She has made leaps and bounds in progress and we are near the end of level B in LOE Foundations and her confidence has increased so much. Her favorite books to read right now are not part of our curriculum and so I actually use things I learned from the book How to Teach a Child to Read With Children’s Books to teach her words that she hasn’t learned the phonics yet to sound out on her own. I also use things I learned in that book while reading books to the kids many times. Even though I haven’t used it exclusively, I found it to be a good investment for us.
