These programs cover the basics of phonics instruction, as well as, other areas such as main idea, theme, reading non-fiction texts, and so much more!!
Incorporation of Reading Diagnostics
Divine Essentials Reading incorporates a reading diagnostic to see where your child is vs. where they need to go. The diagnostic comes with tools that allow for you to see the areas that your child needs to work on, as well as uncover the reading level where your child may begin and finish. It comes with suggestions on what materials to cover, in order to get your child where they need to be. Parents also receive a pdf file with the scores, and areas of improvement.
Incorporation of Session Itineraries
Divine Essentials Reading sends out a session itinerary to each parent before each session, so that you know exactly what will be covered in the session. These itineraries also include links to digital notebooks, games, digital practice, and other important materials that can help you work with your child individually, on top of what they cover with a tutor.
Incorporation of Phonics Cartoons and Games to Keep Kids interested in Reading
Divine Essentials Reading incorporates phonics cartoons and games into some sessions, in order to hold the attention of kids. In one of the cartoons, students follow a gang of phonics experts to uncover clues, and learn word sounds, rhyming words, and phrases. The kids love these short 7 minute cartoons, and they learn so much, and are challenged to uncover words through phonetical clues.
