Inhaltsangabe

Does your child know their letters but still can't read words? First Waypoint closes that gap — in 15 minutes a day.

Most phonics programs overwhelm beginners with pictures, guessing strategies, and too many rules at once. First Waypoint takes a different approach. Every lesson is built on one principle: sound it out, then write it.

What's inside the 90-day program:

• Phase 1 (Days 1–30): Short Vowels & Core CVC Families. Master all five short vowel sounds and the foundational word families.


• Phase 2 (Days 31–60): Blends & Digraphs. Unlock the patterns that open up hundreds of new words — initial blends, final blends, and the four most common digraphs: sh, ch, th, wh.


• Phase 3 (Days 61–90): Fluency & Connected Text. Transitions your child from isolated words to full, decodable stories.

Every day follows the same simple structure:

• Left page: Decodable mini-story, Sound Boxes, 3–4 guided activities
• Right page: Word writing, sentence building, 14 ruled lines
• The Sound Strategy: Tap it, Say it Slow, Say it Fast
• Progress Map: 90 boxes, 90 days of visible momentum

Built for parents, not just teachers. No prep work. Open the book, follow the page. The Parents' Quick-Start Guide walks you through everything in under 5 minutes.

Right for your child if:

• Ages 4–7, beginning to read
• Knows letter sounds but can't blend words
• Has tried other programs and stalled
• Homeschooling or supplementing school

First Waypoint is Book 1 of The Phonics Builder System — a complete series from zero to confident independent reader.

210 pages. 8.5 × 11 inches. Black and white interior.
