How we learn to read begins with Phonological Awareness and the critical role it plays
Learning to read begins with hearing how words sound and being able to identify the sounds in words. Phonological awareness involves being able to recognize and manipulate the sound within words. A foundation skill in reading success.
When children know how to decode, they will be able to read almost any word they encounter.
Phonics is an essential part of learning to read because it teaches relationship between speech sounds and the way they are represented in print, especially in early reading instructions. L1 - Phonics is a systematic and explicit teaching of phonics.
Phonemic Awareness - Blends and Digraphs
Phonemic Awareness introduces the sounds of blends and digraphs.
Research Based & Tested
Research-based to align with what decades of reading research has shown to be effective. We incorporated findings from our research to build an explicit and systematic program for teaching children of all ages to read and spell words. Before releasing the program, we spent four years developing and piloting each component. We observed lessons, and received feedback from teachers who were using the program.
For individuals and businesses supporting children looking for reading intervention.
