Description

The program organizes instruction around a scope and sequence of lessons per grade — 25 lessons for Kindergarten and 30 lessons for each of Grades 1-5. Each lesson "focuses on specific phonics skills, provides examples of high-frequency words, and contains information about other skills addressed within the topic," delivered in short daily sessions of 20-30 minutes.

Target Learners

  • Kindergarten through fifth grade students in whole-class instruction

Learning Goals

  • Sequential phonics skills such as short vowel CVC, consonant blends, consonant digraphs, long vowel silent-e, and phonograms
