1000 Books Before Kindergarten: Complete Phonics (Volume I)

By Mr. Jordan S. Luh, Mr. Charlie H Luh, Mr. Mark Borghese

Phonics at its core, is a method of teaching reading by correlating sounds with letters or a group of letters. The good news is that the English Language contains just 44 unique sounds. There are 5 short vowel sounds, 18 consonant sounds, 7 digraphs sounds, 6 long vowel sounds, 3 r-controlled vowel sounds, and 5 other special sounds (e.g., Diphthongs). One component of reading involves decoding or making connections between sounds and the letters that represent them. The difficulty is recognizing the particular letters or group of letters and associating them to the correct sound and eventually to the correct word. However, with practice (a lot of practice), your child will learn to read.

For children who have completed the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten early literacy challenge or any other child interested in learning how to read, comes the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten Complete Phonics. These workbooks are the next and final step to completing your child's journey to reading
