'Teach Me How To Read with ABC Beats' is a 4-STEP, music-inspired phonics workbook series that builds super readers through carefully-researched steps. A parent-led learning resource, ABC Beats is designed to help you teach your child phonics: the sounds that letters make and how to put those sounds together to decode and write any word! Each workbook is girded by the phonics method and chocked full of exercises, flashcards, and reading prompts to help you unlock your child's skills and confidence!

  • STEP 1 is where you will empower your child to learn all the Alphabet sounds, lasering in on the building blocks of words: Consonants, also known as the letters 'b', 'c', 'd', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z'. Activities include ABC Drum, Upper and Lowercase Letter Match, B-Z Flash Cards, Beginning and End Sound Exercises, Two-Letter Words, and Sound Tales: The Alphabet Forest.

  • STEP 2 dives into the sounds that bring air and life to our words: Short and Long Vowel Sounds 'a', 'e,' 'i', 'o', 'u' and 'y'! Grab over 50+ pages of Flashcards, Trace and Writes, CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant), CCVC and CVCC Word Lists. Unleash Sound Tales and Easy Conversation Writing. As you help guide your child, STEP 2 offers simple sentences, a deep dive on the Silent β€˜e’ Rule, and exercises to inspire your child to Write, Rhyme and Read.

  • The fun really turns up in STEP 3 where you will help your child blend dozens of letters and sounds to create next-level words! STEP 3 focuses on Digraphs (2-letter, 1-unit sounds such as 'ch', 'th,' and 'sh'); Consonant Blends (2-3 letter sounds that glide together such as 'bl,' 'fr,' '-mp' and 'spl'); and Diphthongs (that funny sounding term that describes 2 vowels that glide together such as 'ai' and 'oi'). Vowel+r words, Nursery Rhymes, Fill-in-the-Sentences, Stories, Phonic Raps and Affirmation Writing are all inside as well.

  • Super Sounds is your last STEP! It's the championship of words for your growing reading and writing star! Here, you'll help your child master Prefixes, Suffixes, Compound Words, and Parts of Speech such as Nouns, Verbs and Adjectives. Tools to help include Advanced Exercises, Sound Tales, Enriching Raps, and a B-Z Musical Dictionary.

    'How do I use the workbooks?'

    A) 'Teach Me How To Read with ABC Beats' provides you a comprehensive learning scope to propel your child into essential reading skill mastery. It does this by harnessing the time-tested method of phonics instruction to help unlock 3 of the 5 pillars of literacy, set forth by The National Reading Panel:

    • Phonemic Awareness βœ…
    • Phonics βœ…
    • Fluency
    • Vocabulary βœ…
    • Comprehension

    B) Awesomely, ABC Beats does the hard work of gathering your foundational intel and materials so you can work 1:1 with your child, including pen-to-paper exercises, flashcards and reading and writing prompts. You'll want to use ABC Beats to spur writing exercises, practice reading decodable texts, and honing in on key sounds. Children do not learn advanced reading skills overnight, nor through the 'wait-and-watch' or piecemeal approach. ABC Beats cuts through the overwhelm straight to learning in a way that delights and transforms and that provides a foundation for all future academic learning.

    C) Because ABC Beats is girded by a robust, well-researched learning scope, it crosses a lot of i's and t's by covering all 44 phonemes (single units of sound) and hundreds of spelling combinations. It also simplifies the seemingly infinite complexities of English by identifying key rules/patterns and providing a clear learning method.

    'Should My Child and I Start with STEP 1: Consonants?'

    For children age 2 - 7, we recommend starting at the most foundational STEP possible, so STEP 1. Even if your child knows their ABCs and is starting to read, reviewing the granular sounds in STEP 1 one will be a befit to all children in Pre-K, KG, and 1st.

    If your child is struggling to read and write, start with STEP 1 to build strong foundations and gradually move to STEP 2, 3, and 4, giving yourself 2 - 10 weeks to deep-dive each STEP.

    If your child is comfortable with level 1 books but struggles with complex words and sounds like 'tion' and 'ive,' dive into STEP 3: Letter Blends, progressing to STEP 4: Super Sounds within 3 - 5 weeks for an advanced challenge.

    'How do I get the PDF files?'

    1) Your ease and empowerment is our priority! Simply add STEP 1 or all 4 STEPS to your cart and purchaase.

    2) All workbooks are a PDF digital file, downloadable and printable and made available immediately after purchase.
