Proven Interactive CD-ROM
The computer courseware is designed for independent learning that allows (up to
five) children ages 4-9 to go at their own pace and to be taught in their individual
learning style. The software is an implementation of the Discover Intensive Phonics
for Yourself methodology, consisting of 75 Discover Intensive Phonics lessons, 28
illustrated stories for reading practice, and Fun With Phonics games that reinforce
each lesson. The lessons start by teaching basic names and sounds of consonants
and vowels and build to reading more advanced multi-syllable words. Progress reports
are available for parents to read and print. Reference Materials with software purchase
include: Installation and Operating manual, set of 4 Little Books, and online workshop
(a $125.00 value). This amazing offer allows you to have the program that is used
successfully in schools across the nation in your home for a fraction of the cost!
Set of Little Books
The 4 Little Books are designed to correlate with the Discover Intensive Phonics
lessons. Each story only uses the words and skills that have been previously taught
in the corresponding lessons. As an additional feature, the Little Books are simply
illustrated in black and white to ensure students are focusing on the words and
using the decoding strategies rather than the pictures to guess words and content.
The set of 4 Little Books is color-coordinated with the section skills in the Teacher's
Manual, and with the software, which makes them easy to use with the corresponding
lesson to enhance learning. (Included FREE when you purchase the Discover Intensive
Phonics at Home Software or the Home School Intensive Phonics Kit.)

and writing activities, games, and other suggestions for extra student involvement.
