Description
A time-tested approach for teaching phonics and reading based on the
Orton-Gillingham technique! This workbook provides more practice for the skills
learned in Explode the Code Book
1, which reviews consonants before introducing short vowels, beginning
with short “a”. Foundational skills (including phonemic awareness, phonological
awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, spelling, comprehension, and writing)
are practiced through a variety of fun encoding, decoding, and writing
exercises with cute black-and-white illustrations throughout. Lessons follow
the same format each time, allowing many students to work through exercises
independently, and the user-friendly Teacher Guide rounds out the
program with various multisensory options for instruction and reinforcement.

The Get Ready, Get Set, and Go for The Code, A, B, and C student workbooks provides pre-literacy instruction and reinforcing exercises with a focus on visual identification of consonants, their written lowercase letter forms and their sound-symbol relationships. Each lesson addresses the principles of effective reading instruction and follows the same easy-to-use format. The Teachers Guide is required for providing listening exercises.
The Teachers Guide for Workbooks A, B and C expands on the skills presented in these books, providing teachers with various options for instruction and reinforcement. The wide variety of activities may be adapted for whole-class, small-group, and one-on-one learning situations.
The 60 Picture-Letter Cards can be used for supplementary visual and auditory work and match key words in the student workbooks. Letter cards allow students to practice letter identification and recognition. Picture-letter combination cards help students map sounds to symbols. Use with Get Ready, Get Set, and Go for The Code, A, B, and C workbooks.
The Workbooks, Explode The Code Books 1-8 focus on Phonemic Awareness, Phonological Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency, Comprehension, and Writing. All workbooks have several review lessons and a posttest. Explode The Code Half Books (1 -6 ) focus on more practice and reinforcement with skills in workbooks 1-6.
Code Cards (1 card for every concept introduced in Books 1-3.) include suggestions for daily practice activities and games. Each card is marked with the book and page number on the concept, which it is introduced.
Teachers Guides (Books 1-8) incorporate a quick review, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, fluency and comprehension in every lesson. Suggestions for writing practice and differentiated instruction are provided for each lesson. Specific answers to the student pages are not offered, as the book assumes student and teacher will be completing these together. However, answers for pre-test and post-test questions are included. Please also note these books only cover the "whole" levels, not the 1/2 levels.
Explode The Code Placement Tests are designed to assess students encoding and decoding skills. All tests can be given in either a group setting or individually, with the exception of Test 4, which must be administered individually. Included are directions for administering and analyzing results; answer keys and reproducible test forms.

Great
My 5 year old enjoys doing the material. I bought the 1-1/2 for review since he knows his short vowels and the worksheets are very repetitive so we are skipping many pages. I also bought level 2 which I expect we will be starting soon.

Why did you choose this?
a fun way to reinforce reading
Loved these when I was a kid and my kids love them too! Such great reinforcement and I like that you can go slower with the 1/2 books too.
Explode the Code Book 1 is fantastic but my son needs a bit more practice before starting book 2 so I purchased 1 1/2.
