Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my child is meeting kindergarten and first grade benchmarks?

 “In kindergarten, children should be mastering letter names, recognizing basic letter sounds (phonics), and beginning to blend those sounds into simple words. If your child is struggling to identify letters or isn’t showing interest in ‘playing’ with sounds, it’s a great time to introduce foundational tools like our Reading Success Bundle.”

“Can I help my child learn to read at home without being a trained teacher?”

“Absolutely. You don’t need a teaching degree to build literacy. Success comes from consistent, parent-led activities like phonemic awareness games and daily reading. Our Reading Toolkit is designed specifically to give non-trained parents the exact video guidance and testing tools needed to bridge the gap between home and school.”

“Why is it so important to master reading fundamentals before the end of first grade?”

 

  • “This is often called the ‘Third Grade Wall.’ Before third grade, children are ‘learning to read.’ After third grade, they are ‘reading to learn.’ Missing early fundamentals in kindergarten and first grade can make future subjects like science and social studies much harder. Early intervention now ensures they stay on track for long-term academic success.”
