Summary

Reading is an important skill, but does every kid have to love reading? Does it matter what age a child learns to read? Today I'm sharing some of my own homeschooling experiences along with some facts about reading that you might find both helpful and interesting. Praying this episode will relieve unnecessary burdens you might be carrying when it comes to reading! (Join me for 2 upcoming episodes on dyslexia with my friend Marianne!)

0:00.0	Hey moms, welcome to this episode of the Dorenda Wilson podcast. I'm Dorenda and I am a wife to one,
0:17.1	a mom to eight, a nana to nine, and a 26-year veteran homeschooling mom. I'm really
0:24.7	thankful that you've joined me today. We're going to be tackling the topic of reading.
0:29.9	It's been really fun because I've been doing, kind of taking each subject. Let's talk about
0:36.1	math. Now we're talking about reading. I'm going to be talking about
0:39.0	writing. I took a break from specific core subjects to talk about character growth. And that turned
0:48.9	into kind of a whole series on character growth and discipline. And so I'm getting back to the more
0:55.5	quote unquote educational topics. And today's topic is reading. Before I dive into what I have to
1:03.0	share today, I want to encourage you to check out a couple of my books, my simple mercifully short
1:09.8	book on homeschooling called The Unhurried
1:12.0	Homestooler, and you can find that at Amazon or at my website, Durinda Wilson.com, and the four-hour

1:23.3	homeschooling families so that they are actually enjoying these years. You know,
1:29.1	there's so much unnecessary, ridiculous pressure that's put on us as homeschoolers,
1:35.8	you know, as parents too, but especially as homeschoolers. And I just want to set you free
1:40.7	to do homeschooling and educating your kids in a way that actually works. That's,
1:47.1	that's, you know, that just really is a, I want to say symbiotic, you know, where it just fits like
1:54.2	a glove. And I feel like that is possible for every homeschooling family. And so my, my goal,
2:04.3	my mission, my passion is to relieve unnecessary burdens and give you the freedom to walk this out in a way that your family can thrive in.
2:12.2	And so I really encourage you to check out the four-hour school day. You could find that at Amazon,
2:16.5	any of your favorite booksellers, or Dorinda Wilson.com. If you have not signed up for my email list, my
2:23.2	subscriber email list, again, go to Dorinda Wilson.com to do that. I have a once-a-month Zoom meeting
