Calvert Preschool Phonics Complete Set

Description

Give your precious little learner the gift of reading confidence with Calvert’s comprehensive Preschool Phonics Complete Set, a time-tested curriculum that has helped thousands of homeschooling families build strong literacy foundations. This award-winning program transforms the complex world of reading into an exciting adventure that both you and your child will treasure.

At the heart of early childhood education lies phonics instruction, which research consistently shows is essential for developing strong reading skills. The National Association for the Education of Young Children and the International Reading Association emphasize that children need systematic phonics instruction combined with exposure to books, rich conversations, and hands-on activities to develop crucial pre-reading skills. This Calvert set delivers exactly that combination through its carefully crafted approach.

The complete set includes everything busy homeschool parents need to confidently teach phonics without hours of preparation. Your comprehensive package features a vibrant student book with over 190 pages of colorful, engaging lessons that keep young children captivated while they learn. The detailed teacher’s guide spans more than 340 pages, providing you with step-by-step lesson plans, teaching tips, and enrichment activities that make instruction seamless, even for parents new to homeschooling. Additionally, the resource book offers over 90 pages of full-color practice activities that reinforce critical reading concepts through hands-on learning.

Calvert’s mastery-based learning approach uses teacher-directed activities and systematic review to help young students achieve true understanding. The 180 carefully sequenced lessons cover essential skills including letter recognition, proper pencil grip, phoneme identification, blending sounds, and early writing fundamentals. This systematic approach ensures your child builds reading skills progressively, creating the solid foundation necessary for future academic success.

What makes this program particularly valuable for homeschooling families is its remarkable flexibility. Whether you prefer short daily sessions or longer blocks of learning time, the curriculum adapts beautifully to your family’s unique schedule and learning style. Research demonstrates that systematic phonics instruction is particularly beneficial for struggling readers and provides essential support for children who may not have developed phonological awareness at the same rate as their peers, making this program ideal for children with diverse learning needs.

The hands-on activities throughout the curriculum engage multiple senses, helping children retain information more effectively while making learning enjoyable. From matching games and sound recognition activities to creative writing exercises, every lesson is designed to build confidence while developing the critical thinking skills that will serve your child throughout their educational journey.

For Christian homeschooling families, this secular curriculum offers the perfect foundation that can easily be enhanced with your family’s values and biblical worldview. The program’s emphasis on mastery learning aligns beautifully with the classical education approach many Christian families prefer, ensuring your child develops both academic excellence and character.

Parents consistently praise Calvert’s organized approach and comprehensive support materials. Reviews highlight how the program provides everything needed for successful homeschool instruction, with parents noting the user-friendly format and systematic organization that makes teaching straightforward and effective. This proven track record gives parents confidence that they’re providing their children with an exceptional educational foundation.
