Learn to Read – Word Family Reading Curriculum

It’s time to learn to read! There are many reading readiness signs that help us know when a child is ready to take off reading. If you’re not sure about reading readiness, I have two curricula that help to build those reading readiness skills so kids can learn to read!

The first one is called Learning the Alphabet. I’ve provided free printable packs for each letter of the alphabet.

The second is Reading the Alphabet, which dives even deeper into early reading skills like syllables, phonemic awareness, and beginning sight words. You can also download freebies from this curriculum!

But What Comes Next??

So what comes next?? Once a child is ready to read, what’s a great next step?

I’m excited to share a new reading curriculum called Learn to Read, a curriculum that combines reading by short vowel word families and sight words! My Kindergartner has been testing and tweaking the activities, and so far she approves!

More About Learn to Read

Each short vowel unit of Learn to Read has 4 lessons (or weeks).

  • Lessons 1-3 from each short vowel word family unit introduces two beginning sight words (all 26 sight words from Reading the Alphabet will be considered review words) and a common short vowel word family, like -an.
  • Lesson 4 of the short vowel unit introduces two more sight words and includes review activities for the three word families learned. Also included in this lesson are sight word review activities and short vowel extension activities and games! That’s a lot!

Learn to Read Lessons

If you’re looking to supplement what you’re already using for reading, I am sharing free activities from each lesson for the word family and sight words featured.

But if you’re looking for a complete reading curriculum, I also have bundle packs for each short vowel available at a great price! {see below} Each bundle pack include LOTS of different activities to help kids learn their short vowels and sight words. See the table on contents below for a sample lesson:

The great thing about the bundled packs is that each short vowel unit will be sold separately. So if your child/student is only struggling with one short vowel sound, you can just get the resources you need for that particular vowel! Woohoo!
