Everything you need...all in one program
The
Hooked on Phonics 5 color-coded levels will take your child through learning letter sounds and short vowels, beginning blends, ending blends, long vowels, and challenging combinations. The
Hooked on Phonics parent's guide tells you everything you need to get started.
Because kids learn in different ways, the levels include a variety of multisensory tools that appeal to visual, auditory, and experience-based learners:
Musical audiotapes and flash cards introduce the sounds letters make and how to combine sounds to form words. The friendly voice on each musical audiotape guides you every step of the way.
Hooked on Phonics Workbooks help your child learn to sound out words with different letter-sound patterns. They also include stories and games to help keep it fun.
Interactive CD-ROM in Level 1 lets children play engaging activities that reinforce what they've just learned and builds a wonderful sense of accomplishment.
Hooked on Phonics books bring the words to life and create a personal library of 50 magical books. Each was uniquely developed, using words from the program, to create a successful reading experience.
Helper Word and Word Play cards introduce useful words your child needs to know and give your child practice spelling words in interactive ways.
Posters and reward stickers help motivate your child to keep reading. Each story or book completed means a new sticker on the chart!
