You all will be amazed at the progress if you teach these 6 things.
I have to wait a week to add the other link, in the meantime get started by reviewing the following sounds, and short vowel sounds: a, e, i, o, u; t, n, r, m, d, s, I, c, p, b, f, v
Then, study compound words or multisyllabic words that have ONLY those short sounds such as:
tomcat (two syllables, both closed), dogrun, batman, mended, laptop, etc. Make sure they also write these words down!
Week 2 should be spent on MASTERING the silent e, including writing.

Okay Akeeba, PLEASE come out with a reading/language curriculum already! This was FANTASTIC! I used your advanced phonics pdf with my son this past school year and it was the TRUTH. We took your advice and made it fun. I would introduced the new phonics sound with read it, find it (with his magnifying glass, he'd find and circle/highlight the sound from a wordlist) and write it. We close the lesson with a search. I'd write the sound on a foam card and stick it somewhere with a clue like "ar, wanted to help with the laundry today, can you find ar?" He'd use his magnifying glass and search with purpose 😂😂😂. He LOVED it. We didn't go through the entire list as we started toward the tail end of the school year, but will definitely continue and add on tips from this video ❤❤❤

My triplets are 4 years old and they can also read at this level. Very proud of you and your girls!

Every learning video I have watched by you has worked with my boys 100% to where people are amazed! I'm not a teacher (not certified), but I come from a family of teachers and they are impressed when I post videos of my sons (age 3 & 5) on social media. Thank you for all your help!

Their little voices are absolutely beautiful...I can listen to your kids all day.

I’ve been struggling with elearning with my kiddos and could see that they’re behind in reading 🥺 this was somehow recommended and I just want to thank you for posting. My kids are 5 and 7 as well. Your daughters are precious and sooo smart. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is amazing stuff. I don’t even have kids just yet but I’ll be ready for them when I do have them. Thank you for the free knowledge 🙌🏾.

Akeeba, you are such an amazingly gifted teacher! I wish I could have had a teacher like you coming up because there was so much I didn’t understand. You are a blessing to many and now with your vlogs children don’t have to be left behind if they use the tools of the lesson you just taught. Thank you so much and God bless. Watching from(your hometown)Maryland, USA 🇺🇸!

The girls enjoy learning is a clear sign you are doing a fantastic job 🙏🏽🥳

I am an adult and didn't get this thaught at school. I always check for videos on how to improve reading. If only UK state schools tought like you, life would have so much easier for all.. Being able to read is a great gift. May the Almighty giver of knowledge rewards you for all your efforts. Thank you for the clear explanation and no background music, as I can concentrate on what you are saying without distraction.

I'm in 7th grade and my reading level improved so much during the years, in 3rd grade I wasn't confident in my reading or throughout 4th or 5th during the summer of 5th and throughout 6th I started reading books,manga (Japanese comics) and watching kdramas ( Korean dramas) anime (Japanese cartoons) with subtitles and it really improved my reading a whole lot and I feel more confident in my reading now.

Awesome job girls! I had a huge smile on my face the entire time you two were reading. Way to work with your daughters Akeeba. It’s really refreshing to see videos that educate our children. I enjoy watching you teach and spread knowledge.

Not sure how I received this recommendation but THANK YOU! My son has a learning disability and this is the clearest explanation of reading that I have ever come across. I have spent a TON of money on print outs, syllabus', book recommendations and classes. I will definitely give this a try. Thank you so much!

I did homeschool last year I must extend gratitude to Kindergarten teachers. There are some things we did well on while we missed critical helpful tools such as this video. I am understanding the importance of choosing a lane in life, not because we cannot do everything but we must master a skill or strive to in order to properly give back to the community. Thank you!

Your oldest and my child are the same age. Reading has been a struggle, but I have seen improvements since starting homeschooling last year. I think a lot is just from reading together and speaking in general. This is awesome! I finally came across you just a few days ago and I am blown away and still figuring out where to start since we are already in second grade. I personally feel so many things would be easier if we got her reading level up. She likes to read (most of the times), way more than I did at her age, so I have high hopes for her. I’m glad you are up here helping us and breaking everything down to us with the resources we need. Thank you!

You have answered my prayers. I can’t wait to start with my son!

Hello fellow homeschooling moms - this is excellent information! This is almost exactly what I have found in my research for teaching struggling learners. Thank you for sharing your wisdom Akeeba!!
