Good question! It would be challenging, and you'd have to make sure you were able to correct all students individually if you chorally drilled, but it could probably be done!
Glad you liked it, and happy to hear you're up to lesson 20. After the book, we read together... she just picks a book and reads aloud, and I help when needed. The book teaches the skills, then they just need practice!
did your child no anything before starting this book? like could they identify all the letters prior to starting? did they know sounds yet? my daughter can recognize some letters but she wants to learn more and more so I am tempted to start this book now to ensure I teach her the proper sounds and order.
for context, I am dyslexic and didn't learn to read until middle-school when a teacher caught it. prior to that I just followed context clues from other kids in my class, and always told my teachers I was embarrassed to read out load so they didn't call on me. they never pushed any further on why. so I want my daughter to enjoy reading and have a good relationship with it unlike me.
I'm curious to know whether this book can be used to teach a group of kids or in a general classroom setting. Your thoughts on this please.

Really enjoyed this description. Would like to know what you followed it with. My 4 year-old is now on lesson 20.

Did you complete the writing exercises? That is a sticking point for us as the manual dexterity is not there.
