Phonological awareness is one of the six critical components of reading instruction, which actually begins to develop in the early childhood years. These skills create strong readers and spellers and are major predictors of success in school.
Well, for starters, our kids can begin the most defining years of their academic life already feeling that they’re behind. The social-academic struggle of being compared to other children or being pulled out of the classroom for remedial instruction is damaging to a child’s confidence. If the building blocks of these skills aren’t in place by kindergarten, children are playing catch up from the very beginning.
My goal is to equip parents to properly and effectively weave this into everyday childhood (when these skills are supposed to be taught!) that feels both easy to you as the parent and fun to your child. We are not disrupting the magic of childhood.
You’re in luck! I’ve compiled all of the data, research, and experience gained in my career as a Certified Reading Specialist and created guidebooks with over 165 multi-sensory activities, scripted lessons, milestones, sequences, and more to empower you to teach your child these critical early reading skills - while also prioritizing play.
This bundle of ebooks will give you all the tools and understanding you need to support children throughout their early literacy journey. Consider it a proactive approach to prevent reading struggles and expensive tutors down the road.
