What is READ WELL?

Read Well is a systematic phonics program that provides multiple opportunities to develop oral language, vocabulary, and phonemic awareness. 

Instruction includes:

• letter/sound associations
• blending (sounding out words)
• word patterns
• tricky words (irregular words)
• duet stories (shared reading with rich content)
• solo stories (student-read stories)

Lesson Format 

Lessons begin with warm ups and are followed by a decoding practice (magazine) and a story reading.  Each day Read Well K students hear sounds, say sounds, and read sounds.  At the end of each unit, K students may bring home decoding magazines for review and reinforcement of skills.
