🎯 Scope & Sequence:

This phonics curriculum has been separated into four specific lesson sets. Each individual lesson will take one to three days. Lessons build upon the skills learned previously and have strong scaffolding components embedded.

See the welcome letter and rationale in my preview.

🥇 Lesson Set 1: Focuses on basic sounds and digraphs. Near the end of Lesson Set 1, learners will be introduced to recognizing syllables, and an introduction to open and closed syllable types.

🥈 Lesson Sets 2: Builds upon knowledge in Lesson Set 1 and introduces blends and the flosz sounds. A deeper focus will be placed on open and closed syllable word mapping.

🥉 Lesson Set 3: Learners will explore sound spellings for consonant-le, r-controlled, and syllables for long vowel sounds (magic-e, vowel team, and diphthongs).

🏅 Lesson Set 4: This set continues to build on the previous learning, while introducing common diphthongs, schwa, and affixes.
