Product description
This comprehensive phonics collection features Books 1-8 of the Orton-Gillingham based Explode the Code series, designed to develop foundational literacy skills from kindergarten through fourth grade. The program employs systematic, multisensory instruction that builds phonemic awareness, decoding, vocabulary, fluency, spelling, and comprehension through progressively challenging activities. Each of the eight workbooks contains approximately 90 pages of exercises, including visual discrimination tasks, letter-sound matching, blending practice, word building, spelling activities, and cumulative review lessons. The 2nd Edition includes updated content with clearer directions and new reading passages in Books 7-8 that incorporate comprehension questions. Activities range from letter formation and simple word recognition in the earlier books to more complex puzzles, crosswords, and multi-paragraph stories in the advanced volumes. The structured progression allows students to work through roughly two books per year at a typical pace of five pages per week, making this suitable for both classroom instruction and homeschool implementation across multiple intervention tiers.
