70PhonogramsFor9

This course is for parents with a desire to take the initiative in helping a child learn to read. There are no pretty pictures or fun games here. You must work hard and expect your child to work hard. The rewards are immeasurable as you watch your child learn to read!

Children will learn 70 phonograms and associated sounds over 18 lessons. They will understand that words are made up of parts that are easily sounded out once known. As the reader continues to practice, fluency will increase.

Supplemental materials include

·A checklist to track learned phonograms

·Phonogram flash cards

·Phonograms in mp3 format

·Practice files for use with WinFlash

·Suggested resources to be used for practice

·Phonogram Master certificate

·ZIP file of the CD that led to this course

As mentioned, the course will include 18 lessons. Each lesson typically includes:

·4 new phonograms with associated sounds

·Sample words sounded out using the phonograms learned so far

·A list of phonograms learned so far

·Suggested activities

There will also be lessons on sounding out words, reading strategies and the FIVE reasons for silent final e. The latter is one of my favorites.

After using the phonograms to teach 1st Grade, teach my own children and tutor third graders, I’m convinced all children should know the phonograms in order to understand our language more fully. This course is an excellent way for parents to help their children do this. Children who know the phonograms learn to read, think, spell and experience success. And you get to be part of that wonderful journey!

  Whats the savings?

    You're saving your child from not being able to read Shakespear at the age of 6. Now isn't that priceless?

      This won't help your child, or anyone else, read Shakespeare. Learning to read by phonemes is a good way to learn to make the correct sounds of words. Learning to read is a much more complicated process.

      Happy to discuss with anyone who is genuinely interested.

      Disclaimer: I am the Flying Spaghetti Monster and as such have little use for phonemes.

        Learning to read isn't terribly complicated. Learn the phonograms and sounds, blend them, ensure that your child has appropriate reading materials and they will continue to get better. It is not free from frustrations, to be sure, but it isn't complicated or difficult. I blogged at http://teachingellatoread.wordpress.com about the last time I taught a kid to read and there is plenty about the frustrating part of it.

        @boline-ed: What you've described isn't reading. What use is reading without context and understanding. I'm not rubbishing what you're selling but people need to understand the difference between learning to make the right sounds and learning to read.

        @Entropy Reseller: Not sure what leads you to believe that learning the sounds of phonograms and then reading by blending them to form words is reading without context and understanding. All my children started taking tests on books at Book Adventure and consistently got all the questions correct. Are you a believer in strict word memorization? I've watched children learn that way and am very much against it. Are you aware of the rate at which children pick up words after sounding them out a few times? They don't continue to sound them out just because they know "eigh" says the long a sound. Or that "ough" says one of its six sounds.

        I'm genuinely interested in how you propose that children learn to read.

  Originally $99 now $9. Sounds like a good program. I don't think most schools teach the phonograms very well.

      Phonograms teach rules for the English language. Most schools teach basic phonograms and sight words but don't go into enough detail about multiple phonograms and the rules attached to using them..imo

  Since when did reading become a chore. This sounds like a great way to put kids off reading for life. Find books you both love and read with them every night; kids are like sponges they want to absorb everything. My first memories are of mum reading us Br'er Rabbit while lying on the cold linoleum in Summer; that is how you instill a love of reading in a child.

      That's a fantastic idea. Teach them to read and save money at the same time.

    If you read to your child every night they will go to school and learn to read very well. Teaching with the phonograms was an awesome experience for me and for my children. Learning to read this way is good for the brain as well. Check out this study: http://news.stanford.edu/news/2015/may/reading-brain-phonics….

    My course very much enforces that a huge part of a child learning to read is exactly what you are advocating. I started reading to my children in the womb and continued for many years after that. My children are all excellent readers and love to read. Two in college and one in 2nd grade.

    You are right, kids are sponges. And when they learn the phonograms they are learning so much more about our language. The success they experience keeps them learning and reading.

      I think you may have missed my point.

      These are your own words
      "This course is for parents with a desire to take the initiative in helping a child learn to read. There are no pretty pictures or fun games here. You must work hard and expect your child to work hard. The rewards are immeasurable as you watch your child learn to read!"

      I learnt to read without having a metaphorical gun held to my head. In High School I had a vocabulary that was the top 2% in Victoria and I have 2 degrees. I didn't have to work hard to learn to read my mother just helped me to understand the joy of it - that was the only reward either of us needed.

        I didn't hold a gun to my kids' heads or to my students' heads. And believe it or not, children don't hate working hard at something when they experience success. I prefer the phonograms to Reader Rabbit any day.

        Both of my college-age children scored in the 99th percentile in language on the ACT test and they both enjoy reading. My second-grader is reading well above grade level and enjoying it. She is reading "A Series of Unfortunate Events" currently and getting 100% on tests over the books at Book Adventure. My very limited data compares well to your data, I feel.

        I acknowledge that children can learn to read in different ways and parents are welcome to pursue it how they please. But I've also seen really lousy reading instruction in schools and offer this course as a way for parents to ensure their children learn to read well.
