- Hey friends, today I'm excited to share my comparison between All About Reading and The Good and the Beautiful Kindergarten. We have used TGATB for our whole Kindergarten year and added AAR in at the end. Watch to see what we've ultimately decided to use next year.

Thanks for watching :)
We use both! I love the structured way and the order in which All About Reading introduces concepts- it's based on the Orton-Gillingham approach which is highly effective. We use TGATB workbook to supplement/change things up every now and then.
Nice! We are about to add TGATB to AAR this coming week.
I think both programs really pair well together as long as you are able to cut back on either program. 😊
Such a great video. We love TGTB too. ❤
Thank you for the continual support! Love that we aren't alone in this journey 😊
Thanks so much for that direct comparison, it made it really clear which program would work best for the way my child learns 😊
Oh great! I'm so glad to hear that. :)
I thought I would be interested in doing AAR for my son’s kindergarten year but after doing TGATB pre-k language arts and thriving, I think we are leaning towards TGATB level K. All programs have their cons. This is a good comparison video!
Thank you so much! I honestly think that TGATB just really works for some kids!
I bought both as well. We made it to lesson 2 in AAR. So far, my son is doing great with TGTB. It jives with him way better than the flashcard system. Great comparison!
I love to hear how others have bought both as well haha good luck with both!! I hope it serves you guys well!
Hey, pretty sure I saw you at HEAV today 🎉
I had to google what that was haha nope wasn't me 😊
We have used both in our homeschool, and they have both helped my daughters immensely! :)
They are both really great programs! ❤
Have you used Sonlights LA?
I have not actually! Only TGATB and Gather Round, and a little bit of AAR.
You mentioned that TGTB also has aspects of geography in it, is that just American geography or global? I’m in Australia so wondering if I need to supplement sections.
I would say the geography lessons have a "world geography" perspective. They teach aspects of landforms, culture, and other various topics. All their K-5 LA curriculum is available to download for free, so you might want to scroll through to see if they fit what you're hoping. I hope that helps!
I agree with the above comment. It seems to be world geography to me as well!
How do you teach the reading booster cards? Do you use flash cards or do you just have your student read from the book? Because I've heard other people say that their child is memorizing the words on the cards
This is a really great question! My son does memorize some of the cards a little bit but the words are repeated enough through both the booster cards and throughout his workbook that he also has to learn the rules on how to decode the words too. Also, if you really felt this was a problem, (like I have for certain pages), I just make him read the words backward or in a random order and that helps too!
Hey Ashley, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your highly engaging videos thumbnails and Video SEO Optimization and Promotion which will help your video to reach to a wider audience and increase your subscribers and viewers.
