Where do we start?
Answer honestly — every child starts in a different place, and that's exactly how this curriculum is built.

LEVEL 3 | My child reads and spells simple words. They are ready for spelling patterns
LEVEL 2 | My child knows letters and is ready to read and spell words
Choose video-led lessons (The Letter Mysteries) or a full independent curriculum (Letters and Sounds) — whichever fits how you teach.
