Students develop necessary skills for
reading as they incrementally learn the 44 basic sounds and their symbols,
which make up 85% of the English language. This process of decoding lays a
solid reading foundation, allowing students to approach any new word through
the sound system. All books encourage Christian values and are illustrated with
cute, black-and-white, farm-inspired drawings. Learning Through Sounds
Workbooks 1 and 2provide phonics instruction along with
the required teacher manual—for thorough implementation of daily lessons,
including games and activities. (The Learning Through SoundsPractice
Workbook is perfect for students who’ve finished workbooks 1 and 2 and need
additional practice, or as review when bridging into 2nd grade). The
Helping Yourself Workbook can be used alongside Learning
Through Sounds Workbook 1 and provides activity pages (cut-and-paste type)
for each letter of the alphabet. Each reader is hardcover and has a correlating
workbook (2 pages of exercises per story) and teacher manual, done in the
following sequence: Before We Read, First Steps, Days
Go By, and More Days Go By. Teacher manuals show copies
of textbook and workbook pages with answers filled in and contain detailed
instructions for teaching.
