Welcome back to Homeschool with Steph! Today I'm joined by a special guest, Melanie Jeffry, the host of the podcast, Phonics Rules for Kids. She has such a gift for breaking down the process of teaching children to read and encouraging homeschool parents to feel confident in one of the most important parts of their journey as a homeschooling parent. In this episode, we're going to talk about where to start with phonics, how to make it fun, and ways to support your kids who may struggle or resist along the way. Whether you're brand new to homeschooling or knee deep in phonics lessons already, you'll find so much encouragement here.
