All About Reading Pre-Reading

Learning to read starts long before a child sounds out his first word. All About Reading Pre-reading builds the foundational skills that make later reading instruction easier, more natural, and more successful.

Designed for preschoolers and kindergarteners, this gentle introduction focuses on five essential readiness skills: print awareness, phonological awareness, letter knowledge, listening comprehension, and motivation to read. Instead of asking children to decode words before they're ready, the program develops the skills that prepare them for future reading success.

Lessons are filled with rhyming games, letter crafts, movement activities, picture books, and playful language experiences. Children practice listening for sounds, identifying letters, understanding how books work, and developing a love for stories—all while simply having fun.

The carefully structured lessons follow the same multisensory philosophy used throughout the All About Reading series, making Pre-reading an excellent first step for families planning to continue with Level 1.

For children who aren't quite ready to read words but are eager to learn, All About Reading Pre-reading provides a playful, confidence-building bridge between early childhood and formal reading instruction.

Reading lessons shouldn't feel like a daily battle. All About Reading is a mastery-based, multisensory program that helps children build strong reading skills one step at a time. Based on the trusted Orton-Gillingham approach, it combines phonics, fluency, comprehension, vocabulary, and reading practice into structured, effective, and surprisingly enjoyable lessons.

Rather than rushing children through a long list of concepts, All About Reading introduces one skill at a time and provides plenty of practice before moving on. This careful pacing helps children develop genuine confidence while reducing frustration for both parent and child.

Because the program is built around phonics, children learn how words work instead of relying heavily on memorization. Since the vast majority of English words can be decoded using phonics patterns, children gain the tools they need to tackle unfamiliar words independently.

The lessons are open-and-go, lightly scripted, and easy to teach. Parents don't need specialized training to be successful. Just a few minutes a day builds steady progress and strong reading habits.

One of the program's most-loved features is its collection of full-color readers. Unlike many beginning readers, these stories contain only the concepts children have already learned, allowing them to experience the satisfaction of truly reading on their own. Interactive activities, games, and hands-on review help reinforce new skills while keeping lessons engaging.

The series includes five levels, beginning with Pre-reading and continuing through Level 4. Whether you're preparing a preschooler for reading, teaching a beginning reader, or helping an older child strengthen foundational skills, All About Reading provides a clear, systematic path toward reading success.
