Our Approach: Playful Learning, Powerful Results

Our program blends playful, interactive activities with the deep understanding provided by the Science of Reading. We use engaging multi-sensory techniques – incorporating sight, sound, and movement – alongside clear, age-appropriate principles of Direct Instruction. This insightful approach ensures concepts stick. We focus intently on building critical pre-reading skills like phonological and phonemic awareness – the essential ability to hear, identify, and play with sounds in spoken words, which research confirms is the bedrock of reading success.

Preventing Struggles, Building Confidence

WordFlight: Early Literacy Foundations is purposefully designed as a robust dyslexia prevention measure. We know that explicitly teaching children how to connect sounds to letters and permanently map them in their minds (orthographic mapping) builds the crucial neural pathways for fluent reading. This principled focus on foundational skills offers significant support, especially for children who might otherwise be susceptible to reading difficulties later on.

Structured for Joyful Success

Learning should feel like an exciting adventure, not a frustrating chore! We firmly believe children learn best when they feel successful. That’s why WordFlight follows a mastery-based path: your child celebrates understanding and builds automaticity with each small step before moving confidently to the next. Our carefully structured sequence is deliberately designed based on how young children learn, ensuring they never feel overwhelmed or confused. Short, interactive online lessons keep young minds engaged, nurturing lasting confidence and a genuine enjoyment of learning from the very beginning.
