Practice makes perfect in just 10 minutes a day! There is nothing more important than your child's education, but sometimes it's difficult to find the time to fit everything in. From DK's best-selling "Made Easy" home-learning workbooks, the 10 Minutes a Day series fits in around busy lives. Aimed at kids ages 5-6 , 10 Minutes a Day Phonics: Kindergarten supports your child as they develop their first English skills in connecting sounds with their letters: identifying first-letter sounds in words, listening for middle- and end-letter sounds, writing the letters of the alphabet, making rhyming strings of words, and showing children how to connect letter sounds to make simple three-letter words. Each exercise is simply and clearly introduced and uses a variety of interesting methods to help learning, from matching exercises to learning how to pronounce and spell out new sounds and words, based on themes that a young child can easily relate to, such as food, animals, and household objects. For the eager student, there are extra "time filler" challenges on every page if they finish the questions within 10 minutes and want to continue practicing, or just want ideas for additional activities to do at home. Answers are provided, along with parents' notes that explain what your child learns from the exercise, making this series perfect for homeschooling, or just helping your child stay ahead.

A guide for K-3 educators who need to teach phonics at different levels in diverse classrooms—without burning out The Phonics Playbook is the one phonics-focused resource that offers a solution for phonics instruction in real-world K-3 classrooms. Understanding phonics instruction in theory is one thing, but actually integrating it into daily classroom life—in a way that meets the needs of diverse students—is another. This book offers simplified instruction and practical guidance for differentiating instruction using three models: whole group instruction with elements of differentiation, phonics-focused small group instruction, and small group reading instruction that also incorporates phonics. You will learn to assess student needs, choose the model that’s right for you, and make data-based adjustments as time goes on. In addition to guidance on differentiation, this book also weaves in best practices in phonics instruction and effective strategies for teaching phonics skills, which is especially helpful for newer teachers. The Phonics Playbook guides you from start to finish and helps you develop a positive, effective mindset around differentiation. Confront the problem of “so many needs and so little time” in a productive, sustainable way and avoid burnout with this excellent guide. Review the basics of phonics instruction and learn three different methods for differentiating instruction in K-3 classrooms Help students progress with their reading, even when you have many different reading levels in class Reduce the workload necessary to provide differentiated instruction in phonics and reading Find practical ways of implementing phonics instruction in real-world classrooms with real-world challenges New and experienced K-3 educators, principals, and literacy coaches, as well as homeschool educators and parents, will appreciate the no-nonsense approach in The Phonics Playbook.

The classic handbook on home schooling updated for a new generation of parents and students. Is your child getting lost in the system, becoming bored, losing his or her natural eagerness to learn? If so, it may be time to take charge of your child’s education by doing it yourself The Well-Trained Mind will instruct you, step by step, on how to give your child an academically rigorous, comprehensive education from preschool through high school—one that will train him or her to read, to think, to understand, to be well-rounded and curious about learning. Veteran home educator Susan Wise Bauer outlines the classical pattern of education called the trivium, which organizes learning around the maturing capacity of the child’s mind and comprises three stages: the elementary school “grammar stage,” when the building blocks of information are absorbed through memorization and rules; the middle school “logic stage,” in which the student begins to think more analytically; and the high-school “rhetoric stage,” where the student learns to write and speak with force and originality. Using this theory as your model, you’ll be able to instruct your child—whether full-time or as a supplement to classroom education—in all levels of reading, writing, history, geography, mathematics, science, foreign languages, rhetoric, logic, art, and music, regardless of your own aptitude in those subjects. A new optional Resource Recommendations Portal provides subscribers with curated lists of the best curricula for every grade level and learning style. Thousands of parents have already used the methods described in The Well-Trained Mind to create a truly superior education for children in their care. You do have control over what and how your child learns. The Well-Trained Mind will give you the tools you’ll need to teach your child with confidence and success.
