Bonus #3: Letter Sound MP3 Audio Clips
As you know by now, developing phonemic awareness is one of the most important aspects that's essential to achieve reading success. Phonemic awareness deals with phonemes which are the smallest units of sound. For example, the letter A makes the /a/ ("ah") sound.
However, as parents who went through this entire process we know how critical it is for you to know and be able to produce the proper sounds for all the letters of the alphabet. This is why we created a full set of mp3 audio clips demonstrating in detail on how to properly sound out each of the alphabet letters, so that you are better equipped to teach your child to sound out words, and read words, sentences, and stories.

Bonus #4: The Most Common Sight Words
Our program is superb at helping children develop phonemic awareness and reading skills; however, the English language is not a simple and straightforward language where everything can be neatly categorized to fit certain rules of reading or decoding. There are many words that simply cannot be decoded or sounded out, and are known to the reader automatically. These are known as sight words.
Sight words are pronounced without decoding the spelling of the word, and we want to help you become aware of some of the most common sight words that you and your child will encounter. The more you know, the better you're able to teach your child to read.

My Thoughts:
Reading programs are hard to review, because all children learn differently. What works for one child may NOT work for another child. However, with that said, I do feel that this program is set up effectively for children to learn. I particularly like that the lessons are short.
The only thing the lessons are missing are manipulatives, which are an important part of early learning. When using this program with my 4yo, I used textured letter cards, for tracing the letters while sounding them out. You cold also easily add a moveable alphabet, like what is used in the Montessori method, or magnet alphabets of any variety. These items would be a great addition to this program, particular if your child is a hands-on learner (though all children under the age of 8 benefit greatly from hands-on).
I agree with the author that early learning is very important, however, I don’t necessarily share his opinion of learning to read at a young age. My only advice, should you chose to use this program with your younger children, is to not force it on them, only engage them if they are interested and enjoying it. There are many ways to stimulate a child’s brain in the younger years, all of which are beneficial.
I will continue to use these lessons with my (almost) 4yo with the use of manipulatives as mentioned previously. He is not 100% into the lessons, but we will continue to visit them as long as he is cooperative.
More Information:
The creator of this program has an in detailed description of his program, with lots of video footage of his own children, on his website. I highly recommend you visit the site and listen to his explanations and watch the examples of the program results. I’ll admit it is very impressive!
The only question I have in regards to the program, and the success of teaching children at such a young age to read is in regards to their comprehension ability…..It is quite common for good readers at young ages to not be on the same level in their comprehension of their reading.
