Our Review

This comprehensive teacher resource provides systematic phonics instruction through nine sequential activity books designed for developing readers ages 7-11. The program builds foundational literacy skills methodically, guiding students from basic phonemic awareness through more complex syllabification concepts. With 420 pages of structured lesson plans and activities, it offers educators a complete framework for early reading intervention and skill development. The material specifically targets the crucial early to intermediate reading acquisition stage where systematic instruction proves most effective.

What distinguishes this resource is its carefully sequenced approach that ensures no literacy skill gaps form during these critical learning years. Teachers working with struggling readers or implementing structured literacy programs will find the systematic progression particularly valuable for building student confidence alongside competence. The resource's depth and organization make it an exceptional tool for classroom instruction, reading intervention groups, or homeschool settings seeking a thorough phonics curriculum. This teacher guide transforms reading instruction into manageable, mastery-oriented steps that create capable, confident word workers.
