Kindergarten Prep features 30 beautiful full-color lessons that are the perfect introduction to blending to read, an essential skill that should be introduced before beginning kindergarten or our Level K course. This full-color, single-book course is beautifully illustrated and easy to teach. Just open the book and go!

Help your child get ready for kindergarten through these amazing features of this course:

Blending and reading two-letter words
Introduction to word families and vowel sounds
Continued mastery of skills introduced in our Preschool course, including letter sounds, vowels, numbers, and more
Interactive lessons and songs
Fun games and short videos
Connections to God, art, and nature

We suggest children begin this 30-lesson course if they have fully mastered letter names and sounds. Don’t miss out on teaching skills such as blending, word families, and early reading skills that make this course the perfect, short course to fully prepare children for kindergarten level work!

While the Kindergarten Prep course reviews and cements letter recognition and the sounds of letters, the child needs to have these items mastered before starting this course. If these items are not mastered, it is suggested your child complete The Good and the Beautiful Preschool course. If the Preschool course has already been completed but the child doesn’t quite have the letters mastered, use the Preschool Folder Activities that come with the preschool course and accompanying flashcards until the letters are mastered.
