Meg shares Jude is READING!!! A year ago, he had a whole bunch of educational testing done, and the results were not hopeful. His language disabilities left him on the cusp of being considered "ineducable." It took him over a year to learn his alphabet (and he still struggles). We started this program, and I wasn't expecting success -- I figured we would just plod along and get there eventually. My hope was that by next spring we would have an "early reader." But he is READING WORDS!!!! Read more over at Adventures with Jude
