What you don't want to happen:
☑️ It's time for that turn to read aloud in front of everyone, and he feels sick to his stomach. His palms are sweating and his heart is thumping.
☑️ He starts to lose confidence. He doesn't want to do the things he's naturally good at, and loves to do - because he "isn't smart enough".
☑️ He begins to hate school. Mornings become a nightmare because of the dread of going to class to face another day of being embarrassed to read.
☑️ You change the subject yet again when Miss Perfect Parent asks you how your child is doing in school. (Hers is making straight A's, and started reading chapter books at age 3, of course.)
Maybe those things haven't happened yet (or maybe they are), but you need to know how to prevent/stop it from happening to your child.
⭐ Are completely sound-enabled to teach basic phonemic awareness of letters and phonics components.
⭐ Require no preparation. Plus, your child can self-grade. He'll hear a "ding" with a correct answer, and a "whoops" when he needs to retry.
⭐ Will boost your confidence because you'll know the most basic phonetic and alphabetic concepts are being covered.
⭐ Will give you assurance that when your child becomes a strong reader, she'll have a future for academic success.
Reading tutors and specialists will tell you that one of the main things needed to work on with their older struggling readers is the PHONEMIC AWARENESS component that was never explicitly taught.
(This is the sound component of reading, not even having anything to do with written letters.)
With the Roadmap to Confident Reading, your child's reading foundation will be laid for strength with the SOUND component of letters and phonics
(the secret sauce of a strong reader!).
Your child will be a step ahead, and after he masters these activities, he'll be able to:
☑️ It's almost your child's turn to read aloud in front of everyone, and he wishes he could go first. He asks the teacher if he could read an extra paragraph.
☑️ He has tons of confidence. He's excelling in school, and trying new things. He knows he is smart enough to face the world.
☑️ He wouldn't admit it, but he actually likes school. He comes home at the end of the day full of stories to tell.
☑️ When Miss Perfect Parent starts bragging about her child's perfection, you casually mention the higher grades that yours is achieving. ( j/k - I know you'll be humble :) )

Your kid's future academic genius will thank you. :)
When my daughter was in her preschool and early elementary school years, she really struggled to "take off" in reading.
Her reading was slow and laborious, even in the younger elementary years. "Just sound it out" became a dreaded phrase.
Instead of a pleasurable time together, reading was becoming a chore. She was coming home with lists of sight words, but she could not keep up with the expected "levels" for her age.
If I had these tools for phonics & phonemic awareness, she would have taken off more quickly. I wouldn't have needed to be so stressed about it.
Phonetic concepts & phonemic awareness are essential for reading, especially in the early stages. These skills can make all the difference.
Even holding a degree in Elementary Education, and with years of classroom teaching, my children were missing some of these components. When I began to supplement my daughter's instruction with these concepts, her reading soared. (And it worked for my youngest son too).
(P.S. - My daughter is now a straight A student (a Junior in High School - all AP classes, and in the Honor Society. (Pardon the Mom brag.) :)
It won't be long from now when you will look back, knowing that you taught your child these early reading skills, & you will be super PROUD, too!
With these easy-to-learn letters and phonics activities, you and your child will achieve your reading goals in no time!
Here's what you'll love about this product:
You'll love the Roadmap to Confident Reading because these resources are self-grading, at your child's pace, and on-the-go!
Your child or student can work on any device, whether distance learning, in the car, or waiting at the doctor's office!
Hearing a "Ding!" or a "Whoops!" will help your child to know if she is on the right track.
You and your child can work at your own pace, and practice skills for mastery.
As skills are mastered, confidence in reading goes up, up, up!
This is a crazy good deal. Are you sure this isn't a scam?
Nope! I promise, this is NOT a scam! This product was made with love and in good faith for your amazing beginning reader myself. It's a super low price because 1) it's only for a very limited time on this page, and 2) I really want for your child to succeed in reading!
What ages are these activities for?
The activities are for a wide range of ages, from ages 3 & 4 alphabet learners, to kids in mid-elementary who are focusing on phonics skills, or older struggling readers who needs to go back and strengthen phonetic skills.
How will I get my digital activities?
All of these activities are hosted on the Boom™ learning platform (more info at bottom of this page). Once you purchase your bundle, you'll receive a link to all your products. You'll need to access or use your FREE account from boomlearning.com with these activities.
Are these compatible with Google Classroom or Seesaw for classroom teachers?
Yes, yes, yes! They sure are. Once you purchase you'll also find step by step instructions for how to use your Boom cards with Google Classroom, and with Seesaw. Included are YouTube videos I also recommend to understand how to do it. It's pretty straightforward, but I'm always available to help if you run into snags.
Is every phonics concept taught?
No, not every concept is taught, and you'll need to fill in some gaps. But, I am working towards creating more resources to fill those needs right now! I recommend using a reading curriculum that includes a strong systemic phonics path, and you'll want to integrate multisensory activities too (especially for struggling readers!)
What is phonemic awareness?
Phonemic awareness is having the ability to hear, identify, and manipulate individual sounds (phonemes) in the words we say. These activities are equipped with SOUND (including the instructions for many of the decks) to teach, reinforce, and strengthen these skills.
* This product is a great "kick-start" or supplement for your reader. In the larger of the two bundles, you will receive in your bundle a printable list of phonics concepts in a generally recognized order to get started.
Are printables included?
Yes! Both bundles will also include printable alphabet flashcards, and A-Z alphabet activity sheets. The premium pack includes a list of alphabetic and phonics concepts to learn, as well as a printable sound chart for teaching alternate vowel spelling patterns - and don't forget the BONUS set of printable alphabet activity mats! (Plus, you might find a few more printable goodies thrown in there). :)
