- Level 1: The Alphabet
- Can recognize all 26 uppercase and lowercase letters and match them correctly.
- Can produce the short sounds of all 26 consonants and vowels (/a/, /b/, /k/...).
- Can identify the initial sound in a spoken word (e.g., hears "dog" and knows it starts with /d/).
- Can trace and write all letters with correct stroke order and proper formation.
- The child now has phonemic awareness basics. They understand that letters are not just names but symbols for sounds. This is the foundation for all future reading.
- Level 2: Short Vowels
- Can blend three individual sounds into a word (e.g., /c/ /a/ /t/ → "cat").
- Can segment a CVC word into its individual sounds (e.g., hears "dog" and says /d/ /o/ /g/).
- Can read over 100 simple short-vowel words fluently.
- Can spell (write) simple 3-letter words when dictated.
- The child achieves their first major reading breakthrough. They are no longer guessing based on pictures—they are actually decoding. They can now read simple decodable storybooks independently.
- Level 3: Long Vowels
- Can distinguish between short and long vowel sounds in minimal pairs (e.g., "not" vs. "note").
- Understands the "magic e" rule (cap → cape; hop → hope).
- Can read and write words with common vowel digraphs (e.g., rain, seed, boat, play).
- Begins to read multi-syllable words (e.g., table, paper).
- The child can now access early-reader chapter books because they have the tools to tackle the most common vowel patterns in English.
- Level 4: Consonant Blends
- Can blend consonant clusters smoothly without inserting an extra vowel sound (e.g., says "stop" correctly, not "suh-top").
- Can differentiate between voiced and unvoiced /th/ sounds (e.g., "this" vs. "thin").
- Can read words with initial and final blends and digraphs (e.g., brain, fish, much, sprint).
- Can decode longer words with multiple blends and digraphs (e.g., branch, scratch, bench).
- Reading becomes smooth and automatic. Reading speed increases, and working memory is freed up to shift focus from "sounding out" to comprehension.
- Level 5: Letter Combinations
- Can correctly pronounce r-controlled vowels (car, bird, fern, fork, turn) and diphthongs (coin, boy, cloud).
- Can decode multi-syllabic words with schwa sounds (e.g., butter, father, doctor).
- Can identify and use alternative spellings for the same sound (e.g., boy vs. coin both have the /oi/ sound).
- Can read and spell 90% of the most common English phonetic words.
- The child has mastered nearly all the phonics rules of English. They can independently decode 95% of words in grade-level texts and are ready to transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn."
- 1 One unit per session, with two additional sessions for review, reinforcement, and assessment.
