Foundational Program

This program is intended for kids

For kids who can sound out 3-letter words (with a short vowel) fairly well.

After your child has learned to sound out simple words

they are ready to begin the Smart Steps Foundational Reading Program. I designed this program to give your child the knowledge and practice they need to be a strong reader. I have found in my professional experience that traditional ways of teaching kids to read is failing them. Most efforts are centered around memorizing high frequency words in an attempt to help children learn to read sooner. The Smart Steps Program will help your child learn phonemic awareness and the decoding skills they must have to read beyond memorization.

You’ll love this program because...

No preparation is needed; just open and go!
The lessons are short and can be done anywhere, anytime in as little as 10 minutes a day.
Easy to follow! I’ve provided video and printed instructions for you (as the teacher) to know exactly how to help your child progress through the program.
The material is carefully designed to help your child practice the decoding skills they need to become a fast and fluent reader
