Spelling/Reading Instruction
Eden: Spell to Write and Read
Knox: *The Reading Lamp
*What is this method? The Reading Lamp program is an explicit phonics program, based on the science of reading, that simplifies the English language into 40 phonemes (the sounds we hear), 70 graphemes (the sounds we write), and 15 reliable spelling patterns. The Reading Lamp teaches students word by word while integrating reading, writing, and spelling. The words are taken directly from Scripture in order to give students a jump start into reading the Bible.
There is currently not a curriculum availabe for The Reading Lamp, and it is something that you have to be trained in. A beloved friend and mentor is working to make this more accessible for parents and teachers. If you are interested in curriculum that is similar, All About Reading and All About Spelling are silimar in methodolgy.

I have planned. I have prepared. And I have LOVED every minute of it! I am excited about a new school year. But ultimately, our year is in the Lord’s hands. I have done my part as mama, but I am trusting God to direct our days and solidify in my children’s hearts and minds what is most important. God always does a better job than I can! It is a joy to partner with Him in the education of my children. Here’s to much growth- physically, academically, emotionally, and spiritually- in 2025!!
