Build the foundation
Start with short vowel word families, early phonics patterns, and simple reading confidence.
Kindergarten to Grade 1 Reading
A Complete
Reading Journey
Ready to Read blends systematic phonics with engaging, cross-curricular learning. Each book builds skill by skill, so your child can begin where they are and grow toward confident, fluent reading.
Strengthen fluency
Continue blending, sight words, CVC practice, and early comprehension through daily rhythm.
Grow independence
Move into silent e, long vowels, longer words, and stronger confidence with every lesson.
Read with confidence
Bring the year together with vowel teams, compound words, richer reading, and fluency.
A Typical Day
Read the Teacher’s Guide
Start by spending 5–15 minutes reading the day’s beautifully illustrated lesson together from the Teacher’s Guide, exploring science, Bible, picture books, and more.
Open the Student Book
Then, your child completes four guided pages in their Student Book, putting what they just learned into practice through phonics, reading, math, and hands-on activities.
Done in Under an Hour
That’s it! One simple lesson in the Teacher’s Guide followed by the Student Book pages—all designed to fit naturally into your homeschool day.

What's Inside
Word Families
Your child will begin to read short vowel word families.
Math
Math pages cover important mathematical concepts that go beyond numbers and counting, including sequencing, graphing, and 3D shapes, along with addition.
Art
Each week, your child will explore basic concepts of art, including light and dark shades of colors, color mixing, straight and curved lines, texture, and observation skills.
Calendar
Making a calendar once every four weeks gives your child a chance to practice writing numbers 1–30 and builds awareness of months, weeks, and days of the week.
Science
Science pages give your child the opportunity to recall the information they’ve learned from the Teacher’s Guide about different animals and their underground habitats.
Social Studies
Social studies pages explore topics that help your child begin to understand the world they live in and how to relate to it.
Mini Books
These fun extra pages are found in the Resource Library of the app. Your child will have the opportunity to cut out, color, and read a mini book for each word family that we cover. Plan to keep these mini books so they can build a library that they can read as the year progresses.
Bible
Bible pages explore the Bible concept covered in the Teacher’s Guide more fully.
