Bookroo’s Learn to Read program follows Science of Reading principles, focusing on phonics and reading comprehension. Our aim is to cultivate readers who possess the skills to decode text, comprehend its meaning, and relish the stories they uncover. Each lesson is designed for one child and one adult companion, conducted at a computer, and typically lasts 15-20 minutes. No prior preparation is necessary for the adult helper. We recommend one lesson per day, five days a week. Following each lesson, participants engage in shared reading of a book, with optional supplementary practice resources provided for further reinforcement.
Hooray! If your little one is ready to start learning to read, this is the perfect beginning. Following a Science of Reading and phonics based system, in this module, beginning readers will learn 11 letters, and 11 sounds. Module 1 will have your little one reading 2-3 letter words, and there are no “tricky” sounds or rules.
Congratulations on finishing Module 1! In this module, your little one will continue building on the foundation you built in Module 1. They will learn an additional 6 letters and 7 sounds. Module 2 will have your little one reading 2-4 letter words, and adding the concepts of “heart words”, and that a letter can make more than one sound.
