Though many parents think teaching their child reading will be daunting, it doesn’t have to be! You’re already teaching your child important things every day, and with Foundations Phonics, you’ll have all of the help you need to do that with reading, as well.

You don’t even have to spend time planning because we’ve already done that work for you. This phonics program features easy-to-use lessons and a schedule. Foundations Phonics requires just three 20-30 minute lessons each week for 18 weeks and relies on common household items (like crayons, rice, and play-dough). This simple, practical approach not only saves you time but it also appeals to children and is designed for kids with a wide range of learning styles.

Even better, this flexible program does not require children to be ready to write to learn to read, as most other phonics programs do. There are separate worksheets for children who are ready to write, but it also includes activities and coloring sheets for those who aren’t quite ready to start writing. For that reason, this program is also flexible enough for use with either kindergarteners or 1st graders. If your 5 or 6-year-old is ready to start reading, you’re ready for Foundations Phonics!

All of this plus this program is firmly rooted in the Bible, with each lesson tied to a Christ-centered concept. By the end, your child will know phonics and also the Gospel”from Creation to the Resurrection.
