Week-by-Week Phonics Packets

This is age appropriate for my rising 1st grader and easy for me to use with him (I am not a teacher). I wanted something easy and quick for us to pick up and do a page or two at a time. I appreciate how it gets progressively more difficult. It’s been easy to use and has a lot of educational topics.

I got this to work with one of my students over the summer. It is great. He is special needs so this is challenging but easy enough for him to not give up. If you are teaching someone to read this is a good start. I pair it with the Dick and Jane first readers. Some of the pictures are hard to figure out but that does not happen often. I will keep using these.

This book is fantastic. It has 19 different activity formats, so your child won't see the same activities repeated frequently. - Structure: The first page of each week starts with an introduction the new skill. And there's a checklist for children to keep track of their progress as they complete the following 4 pages of the week. The other pages keep reinforcing the skill at hand and the last page of the week is a review and there are 5 stars to color and rate self-progress. - Difficulty: The book advances with the student, assuming the child is a kindergartener. Mine is interesting and going through the pages with ease. - BIG NOTE TO PARENTS: Your child will need help in reading the instructions. There are whole sentences in the early pages assuming that someone is helping the child. See the picture I added for page 14 as an example. The child is working on letter sounds, so of course is a child who can't read yet. This is a book to help you help your kid. Was my review helpful? let me know!

I am loving the contents, but perforated pages would have been great. I ended up tearing all of the pages out, trimming them and putting them in a 3 ring binder so the pages will lay flat. I don't think it would be such a big deal for older kids, but the younger ones learning to write seem to struggle.

I love the layout of the pages. Main lesson and follow up questions to assess skills.

Great book to get kids caught up. The exercises are fun and concise,so they don't lose interest.

My young son is gaining confidence by the day. He struggled prior to get this book. Know he is able to read the directions with little assistance and we are just 40 pages into it. You have 5 pages per learning activity and by the 5 page of his lesson, they really grasp the lessons learned. Job well done…👍👍 Note: as a parent… you have to practice with them… This isn’t a book just to let them figure it out. You will see results but you need to engage with the learning.

Perfect workbook to help kids learn phonics. Homeschooling my 5 year old and this workbook has helped so much she’s starting to read now. Even recommended it to my sister.
