Beginning-to-Read Program
Recommended For:
- Older 4’s (AK4)
- 5-year-olds (K5)
- Beginning 1st—first time being schooled (B1st)
Note: K5 and Beginning 1st grade students have traditionally excelled in this Beginning-to-Read Program. Because older 4’s are generally more mature in their readiness to learn, they are considered an Advanced K4 and thus will normally do better with Kit B rather than A. (Level A is not a prerequisite for starting Level B.)
Skills Covered at Phonics Level B:1:
- Short Vowels
- Long Vowels
- Consonants
- Blends (a single consonant blended with a vowel to form one speech sound)
- Reading One-Syllable Words
- Spelling Short-Vowel Words
- Manuscript Penmanship
Description of Phonics Lessons B:1:
Every lesson was written so that even a novice teacher can be successful. After teaching a lesson, refer to the Phonics Workbook Instructions & Answer Key: Level B:1 (Part 205AK) to help your child complete the Phonics Workbook: Level B:1 (Part 205) pages listed in that lesson’s PACING SCHEDULE.
Teaching Phonics Level B:1:

Pacing Suggestions:
Levels B:1 and B:2 are usually completed within a typical school year. However, if you start an Advanced 4 on Level B, simply teach in sequence at a pace that best fits your child’s needs.
