Phonics Readers

Sets One and Two

The success to teaching anyone to read is to teach one sound at a time. Our Phonics Readers practice the student in one vowel sound at a time. When the student masters one sound at a time, he or she can easily learn to read without overwhelm or confusion. In Set One, the short sound vowel of the letter "a" is practiced. It is surrounded by a number of consonants so the student gets used to its sound with the various consonants and even covers plural words containing the short "a" word. This is done at a pace which allows your student to learn this sound so thoroughly, he or she will never have a problem with it again. The stories and illustrations guarantee engaging interest and allow the reader to participate in the learning process. See each title in Set One here.  Read more About Phonics here.

Now that your student has mastered the short sounds of the "a" vowels and has read, on his or her own, five full books, it is time to teach him or her the remaining short vowel sounds. Set Two covers the short sounds of "e," "i," "o," and "u." After reading the books in this set, if these vowels have been taught and practiced well, your student will have mastered the most difficult aspects of learning to read - the short vowel sounds. Your student will be proud of having read a full ten books on his or her own and will be ready to proceed to the more complex aspects reading by phonics. See each title in Set Two here. Read more About Phonics here.
