Easy-to-Follow Daily Lessons

Each lesson provides everything you need for effective phonics instruction at home:

Watch Together (5-10 minutes)

Your child watches a short video lesson teaching one new phonics concept. Clear, engaging instruction explains exactly what your child needs to learn. Parents don’t need to teach—the video does the instruction.

Practice Activities (10-15 minutes)

Your child completes reading and spelling exercises practicing the new concept. Parents supervise and encourage while children work through structured activities at their own pace.

Quick Assessment (5 minutes)

A brief quiz checks understanding before moving forward. Your child must demonstrate mastery to advance, ensuring solid foundation with no learning gaps.

Flexible scheduling: Complete one lesson daily (20-30 minutes) or adjust the pace to fit your family’s homeschool routine. Most families complete the full program in 1-2 years.

What Age Students Can Use This Curriculum

Our homeschool phonics curriculum works for:

  • Elementary students (grades 3-6) who missed foundational phonics instruction
  • Middle school students (grades 7-8) struggling with reading and spelling
  • High school students (grades 9-12) needing remedial reading help
  • Adult learners who want to improve their reading and spelling skills

The video-based format appeals to older students and adults who might feel embarrassed using materials designed for young children.


Our curriculum follows the Orton-Gillingham approach, specifically designed for students with dyslexia and learning differences. This proven method is also highly effective for all students, including homeschoolers who simply want excellent phonics instruction.

Key Features of Orton-Gillingham Instruction:

Systematic and Sequential – Concepts build logically from simple to complex in a carefully planned order.

Explicit and Direct – Nothing is assumed. Every sound, rule, and pattern is taught explicitly.

Multisensory – Students see, hear, say, and write each concept for maximum retention.

Diagnostic and Prescriptive – Regular quizzes identify exactly what students know and what skills need more practice.

Cumulative – Constant review ensures previously learned material isn’t forgotten.

This structured approach gives homeschool parents confidence that they’re providing high-quality, proven instruction without needing special training themselves.


“A light bulb went off!”

“I found your program while looking for Orton-Gillingham methods for my 11-year-old son Adam, who struggled with spelling and decoding. We just started homeschooling, and I needed something affordable that worked online.

After just one month with your curriculum, Adam is excited because he can already see the difference. Tonight he was trying to spell ‘music’ and struggling. I told him to listen for the next sound. Right then a light bulb went off! He said, ‘Oh! It is /z/ so it must be either an ‘s’ or a ‘z’ and I’m pretty sure it isn’t a ‘z’.’

I realized he had been trying to memorize every single word before because he had hardly any rules to guide him. Thanks for this great homeschool curriculum!”
