Kohl's Big 50th Anniversary Sale!

This is a big event for Kohl's! If you didn't have a chance to look at the Sunday ad, it was FULL of sale items and most were 50% off which I'm sure is because it is the 50th Anniversary! ;)

You can save an additional 30%, 20%, or 15% if you are using a Kohl's Credit Card too- although, if you plan to do this, be responsible, pay it off right there in the store after purchase! You can only make a payment with check or cash in stores so head over prepared ;)

Debt is Dumb!

Reading Horizons Review!

"Home School Intensive Phonics Teachers Kit"

(Ages 4-9)

I have to admit, I wasn't sure where to start my review on the "Home School Intensive Phonics Teachers Kit" from Reading Horizons! Upon receiving it I was stunned by the quality, time, and preparation that went into this program! 

I simply can't review this product the way I have others in the past so here it goes!

While I do not home school my children I do believe that parents are the most important teachers!
This program's name could simply read Intensive Phonics Teachers Kit because it can easily be applied in a classroom setting, not just at home.

As a first time parent of a kindergartner, I have felt a little overwhelmed with knowing how to help teach my child the foundation of reading. Don't get me wrong, I read books to her, I teach her to spell some words, and she knows her abc's and their associating sounds really well but heading into actually teaching her to READ, I feel like any extra direction and help I can get is good! So I was, of course, super excited to get this program to review.

The "Home School Intensive Phonics Teachers Kit" includes:

*Teachers Manuals (2 Volumes)
*Sound Essentials Student Manual
*Reverse Listening Cards
*14 Reference Posters
*Enrichment CD with all necessary printables and activities
*4 small reading books
*Step by Step Instructions
*Black Zippered Canvas Tote bag(NICE!)
*T-Shirt "Read Books on Shirts"- Love it!


As I have read through the Teachers Manual and the prefaces of each manual this is what I found:

*QUALITY!
So impressed by the quality of the physical program!

*Step by Step Instructions!
Easy to follow Step by Step instructions and directions for the "Teacher"

*Quick Reference Tabs!
I love the easy to navigate tabs!

*Explanations! 
I even learned a few new(or forgotten rules of reading) through details explanations of how each applied step helps build the foundation for reading!

*FREE Teacher Training! And FREE WEBINARS!
This is really good for me- as I know it's important for me to be my child's best teacher BUT I need to learn the qualities and skills of a teacher! ;)
There is one webinar available for Tuesday Sept. 11th!

*MONEY BACK GUARANTEE! 
This program offers a 60 day money back guarantee because it is proven that with in 40-60 hours of instruction you will see a jump of 2 to 5 grade levels in reading!
THAT'S AMAZING! Which brings me to my last one...

*CONFIDENCE!  
Not what you expected? This isn't just confidence for me as a teacher, but for my children as they learn to read and know they are smart and will excel in life! Reading is key to being able to excel!  Since the program has such an amazing guarantee, I'm confident it will work!

I'm super excited to get results with my child. We have recently started the program and she already loves it! We also played some of the games in the car while traveling and were quite entertained!

My daughter tells people with excitement that she has something to help her learn to read!

I also LOVE the time I get to spend one on one with her- having three small kids, it seems harder and harder to get that bonding time!

I will continue to update you with her success as well!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**There are also other programs available as well.




*Disclaimer: I did receive this product free of charge to review but was not paid in any other way to post this review.  However, all opinions expressed are my own honest opinions!

Since I still feel fairly new to the world of school aged children(my oldest is entering kindergarten this fall) I am feeling the need to learn more about how to teach them- especially when it comes to reading and writing. I recently learned of a company called Reading Horizon's which is all about that! 

You can tell by their name right?!

They offer programs to purchase for daily use and they also offer FREE MONTHLY WEBINARS that you can register for and learn something new each time.

This month's webinar is on "Spelling and Vocabulary Instruction" and you can register for it HERE for FREE.

So if you are able to take some time to learn, get registered and share your experience with us!

Old Navy Sale Ends Today! 15-20% off plus coupon!

UPDATE:
ADD THE CLEARANCE SECTION TO YOUR TRIP!!!

Well I sure hope everyone had a super fun and SAFE 4th of July! And that there weren't fires spread everywhere! We had lots of fun in the mountains- a family tradition! 

Looks like there were some great deals yesterday but it is more important to be with the ones you love and celebrating freedom than getting deals right?

Old Navy knew that so their sale goes through today- online only! You can get 15% off using code "ONJULY"

(20% if you use your Old Navy Card but remember, we don't like credit cards and rarely if ever is it worth it to sign up for the discount) 

If you are shopping in stores, be sure to grab a coupon from their FB page. This week it shows it's a $15 off $75 or more purchase- not their best but still worth it if you plan to shop til you drop.

It's really time to start stocking up on back to school clothes so you don't get caught in a bind and paying full price come August. Crazy I know right?! I have my first child going to school this year! WOW!
