Learn Reading is a program suitable for emerging readers who recognize letters, know their sounds, and are ready to develop foundational reading skills.

The Learn Reading program builds essential reading skills through structured lessons that focus on phonics, sight words, reading fluency, and comprehension. Scholars will progress from reading simple words and sentences to handling short, age-appropriate chapter books. This course is adaptable to the readiness and pace of each scholar, covering the first 30 lessons of a comprehensive 80-lesson curriculum.

Scholars will strengthen their letter-sound recognition, developed foundational phonics skills, and built a strong sight word vocabulary. They will be able to read and understand simple sentences, show improved fluency, and begin reading short chapter books with guidance. Additionally, scholars will be able to discuss basic story elements, aiding comprehension and retention.
