<h1>Learning to Read</h1>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
With Valentines Day less than a week away, have you come across adorable Valentines ideas that just make you go &#8216;awww&#8230;&#8217;? We featured some very &#8216;awww..&#8221; worthy ideas for <a title="Valentines Day for Kids: The Weekly Kids’ Co-Op" href="http://lessonslearntjournal.com/valentines-day-for-kids/">Valentines Day last week at the Weekly Kids&#8217; Co-op</a>. Thank you to the lovely (new and old) readers who dropped a quick note and said &#8216;Hi&#8217;. I confessed to one particular reader this week that it&#8217;s very nice to hear from readers because sometimes as I write these posts I can&#8217;t help but wonder, &#8220;Who is reading this stuff?&#8221;. So, it is quite exciting when there are comments from kind readers.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
This week we&#8217;re featuring fabulous ideas to help kids learn to read.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
How did you learn how to read? What were your first memories of learning how to read? Were your memories of books? Or do you remember drills and songs of the alphabet?  I am a firm believer in the importance of <a title="Books: How to Encourage Reading" href="http://lessonslearntjournal.com/books-how-to-encourage-reading/">surrounding children with wonderful literature</a> when they&#8217;re learning to read, (and also when they have learnt how to read). I also appreciate the well thought out reasonings and methods (pedagogies) to teaching and equipping children with the skills to read.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
From last weeks&#8217; Weekly Kids Co-op, some great kid-friendly and fun ideas to help kids learn to read:</p>
<ul>
<li><a title="Beginning to Learn your ABCs by Growing Book by Book" href="http://growingbookbybook.com/2013/02/04/beginning-to-learn-your-abcs" target="_blank">Beginning to Learn your ABCs by Growing Book by Book</a></li>
<li><a title="How to Teach Reading &amp; Writing: Letters" href="http://lessonslearntjournal.com/how-to-teach-reading-writing-letters/">How to Introduce Letters: 4 guidelines and a sequence for introducing letters by Lessons Learnt Journal</a></li>
<li><a title="Bringing Nature Inside by An Idea on Tuesday" href="http://niccolaontuesday.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/bringing-nature-inside.html" target="_blank">Bringing Nature Inside by An Idea on Tuesday</a></li>
<li><a title="Reading &amp; Writing Family Time" href="http://carrotsareorange.com/reading-writing-family-time" target="_blank">Reading &amp; Writing Family Time by Carrots are Orange</a></li>
<li><a title="Conversation Hearts Candy Sight Word Matching Game" href="http://www.messforless.net/2013/01/food-fun-friday-conversation-hearts.html" target="_blank" class="broken_link">Conversation Hearts Candy Sight Word Matching Game by Mess for Less</a></li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;<br />
Before we head off for another week, my favourite <a title="Instagram: Pauline Lessons Learnt Journal" href="http://instagram.com/pauline_lessonslearntjournal/" target="_blank" class="broken_link">Instagram</a> from our family this week. I have captioned this &#8220;the matrix&#8221;, but honestly, how many of your photos are blurry because kids, (being kids), are constantly on the move?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
