Email pen pal?
Ren Allen
"She is having trouble reading too."
No, she's not having trouble reading, she's slowly learning to read
as human's do. If you see her as "having trouble" she's going to
pick up on that and feel as though something is wrong because she
isn't living up to your standard.
She's learning to read. There's no "trouble" with that.
Help her email friends because it brings her joy, because she loves
doing it, not to "teach" her anything.
If you can be her scribe, and type while she dictates what to say,
that will help her learn more joyfully than if you stand over her
and try to get her to learn about reading (I'm not saying that's
what you're doing, but that's the image I got when you talked about
screening her mail).
Unschoolers believe that learning is joyful. So we put the joy
before the learning, and the learning just unfolds naturally and
beautifully.
Put joy first, put your relationship first....and if you're already
doing that, then just learn to trust that learning will happen.
Truly.:)
