The 15-minute nightly routine
Five minutes of sound drill, five minutes of decodable text, five minutes of reading aloud to your child. Consistency beats duration.

You're part of the instruction
What happens between sessions matters. These routines and explainers help you support your reader without turning the kitchen table into a battlefield.
At-home routines that work
Sound it, don't guess it
When your reader stalls, prompt with “what sound does this part make?” instead of “look at the picture.” Decoding is the skill we're building.
Track the wins
Keep a small notebook of words conquered each week. Visible progress rebuilds the confidence that struggle erodes.
Read above their level, aloud
Comprehension and vocabulary grow when you read rich books to them, even while decoding is still developing.
