Personal Review: Teach Your Child to Read in Just Ten Minutes
a Day by Sidney Ledson
The program presented in this book is better than the others because it is
pure phonics. The kids learn to read and then memorize sight words by
reading them in context without even realizing it. The backbone of the
program is a fun little game that encourages children to practice decoding
words. They play the game for tokens, stickers, treats, or privileges. I had
to limit it for my kids they liked it so much. The book also encourages
puppets as fellow students to add humor. Both of these tactics made the

program a blast. I made a list of the 32 sounds to introduce, hung it on the
wall and we started playing the game. We added a new sound whenever
my child got really confident on the old ones.
How fast does it work?
In three and a half months my 5 year old daughter went from knowing most
of the alphabet and sounds to being able to read like a second-grader.
She spent an hour a day the first three weeks and about 20 minutes a day
thereafter. I never taught her sight words, but she passed all the
kindergarten sight words off the first day only struggling on "said" and
"been", she had inadvertantly memorized the rest from reading so much.
In three and a half months my just-barely 4 year old son who knew only
one letter and no sounds has graduated from level one of the Sidney
Ledson program, He can read 120 words easily and has the building
blocks for hundreds more if they were presented to him. I think that puts
him at late kindergarten or early first grade reading level. He spent about 5
minutes a day about 5 days a week. At this rate, (5 minutes a day) he will
be reading on a second grade reading level when he starts kindergarten.
Pros of this method
*Don't have to memorize a single sight word (my kids can't/won't do that).
*Kids never think of learning to read as any more difficult than learning the
alphabet song.
*Kids don't develop dislexia (disordered reading), this is one of only two
methods I have found that addresses this issue and what to do about it.
*This method helped me spot reading problems that had been invisible
with my daughter while she tried whole word method unsuccessfully and
tearfully.
*When kids graduate from this program they don't have to read boring
repetitive books that insult their intelligence. Repetitive books are whole-
word method, my kids can really read and aren't limited to books with 30 or
less words.
Cons of this method
*you use treats and candy to get them started, which have to be weaned
away eventually (not too hard).
*because it is easy, it is soooo tempting to rush a child through the
program too fast, keep telling yourself "easy and fun, don't push too fast"

*the program doesn't have lesson plans. That is because you don't need
one, the program is really simple and basic, but some people see this as a
negative.
