For helping kindergartners and first graders who are having difficulty on their early literacy skills, Road to the Code is a successful, 11-week program for teaching phonemic awareness and letter sound correspondence. Developmentally sequenced, each of the 44 15-20-minute lessons features three activities - Say-It-and-Move-It, Letter Name and Sound Instruction, and Phonological Awareness Practice - that give students repeated opportunities to practice and enhance their beginning reading and spelling abilities. Road to the Code is backed by more than 10 years of study in kindergarten and first-grade classrooms. Detailed scripted instructions and reproducible materials - such as Alphabet Picture and Sound Bingo cards - make this program easy for teachers to use. Teachers have the flexibility to work with students individually or in small groups and may adjust the amount of time it takes for a student to complete the program. With these proven phonological awareness activities, educators can confidently intervene before children have a chance to fail.

Road to the Code: A Phonological Awareness Program for Young Children,
This review is from: Road to the Code: A Phonological Awareness Program for Young Children (Spiral-bound)
The Road to the Code Program is a wonderful program in helping kindergarten and at-risk first graders in decoding short vowel words. I am a kindergarten teacher teaching in a title 1 school where half of my students are English language learners. All my kindergarten students learned to read words using this program, regardless of their primary language. I have been using this book for 4 years.
This program is easy to implemet. A teacher or trained aide will work with a group of 4 children for a 15 minute lesson. Road to the Code teaches children letter/sound corespondence, how to blend letters, and read words. This program WORKS and children find it fun and are successful. It is the BEST early intervention reading program on the market today. This book is a great investment for you emergent readers!

"A Reading Teacher's Tool,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Road to the Code: A Phonological Awareness Program for Young Children (Spiral-bound)
As a teacher of reading I thought that this book has excellent applications of phonemic awareness. It is very easy to understand and to follow. For the child who is at risk, this book starts out at the very beginning of reading aquisition. I would suggest this book to anyone who is working with a low lovel reader!
