To give my seven year old more practice at reading, I have done a little "research" at what other homeschool curriculum companies use or suggest for their readers based on grade level. I have then gone to my library and either gotten that exact book or chosen one that is close to the recommended book. This list is not complete because right now we are in the middle of second-grade work. In addition to our A Beka readers (morning time), the following books are ones that we read nightly along with at least one story out of the Beginner's Bible.
I can already tell a difference in his reading. He is much smoother and reads faster and self-corrects. He has more experience so he is more confident in his reading. It really is about practice makes perfect.
