Why didn't I think of this before. I have been searching for teaching DVDs for the kiddly-coos. I totally forgot about the old Electric Company until I found myself trying to sing the "silent e" song.
And there were more entertaining videos.....And DIVERSITY!!!!
Yay!

Miriam, are you going to use phonics with the kids, or whole language?
Whole language, the way I was taught back in the day, is making a come back.
I can still remember some of the basic sentence structures and words.
Fun With Dick and Jane
See Spot run. See Jane run. See Dick run.
Somehow you reach a eureka moment, and the whole thing just comes together, and you find yourself reading--a magical moment to say the least.
Hi Domino - I'm doing a bit of both. when they write, I'm not too insistant that they spell correctly -for now.
But when we actually read and I myself write, I do it the whole language way.
Right now we're using Dr. Seuss books because there are so many white characters -mostly made up creatures, lol.
**correction** mostly because there AREN'T so many white characters. I'm looking for diversity.
