Pacing: the lessons incorporated in this manual were designed for the average child. Some

lessons may be very easy for your child and allow you to move at a faster pace than allotted in this

guide. Other lessons may be more difficult and require you to spend additional time on a subject.

How quickly your child learns to read is not important. What is essential is proficiency in each of

the topics. Spend whatever time is necessary to ensure your child understands the fundamentals

of reading.
