Orange Mountain Reading Adventure

This 4th mountain is a complete reading/writing program for teaching kids who have mastered 3 letter short vowel words and are ready to learn 4 or 5 letter blends (clap, jump). We also teach several strategies for figuring out challenging words.

Go With Us On Our 5 Trek Adventure! 

  1. Learn how to teach consonant blends (bl, tr, mp, etc).

  2. Teach your child how to read and spell 4 letter short vowel words.

  3. Celebrate each step toward mastery of sight words using the frog folder to reinforce sight word recognition.

  4. Assess your child's micro reading level and use exciting books in Reading A to Z to help your child continually grow as a reader. On this trek, we talk about the Biscuit book series and other high interest series that get your child hooked on reading. This is when reading begins to transition from ‘reading is work’ to ‘reading is fun!’

  5. Use daily journal drawing/writing time as a tool to show you spelling skills that are emerging and what to focus on next.  See you child grow in confidence and self-expression!
