Why Hooked On Phonics?

" Today a reader, tomorrow a leader."

- Margaret Fuller

How does it work?

Hooked on Phonics starts out by asking a simple question:
Does your child recognize the letters of the alphabet and know the sounds the letters make?

You will have the ability to modify Practice Pack levels, if it's not the perfect fit, within your dashboard.

The Story of Hooked on Phonics

The Hooked on Phonics story began in 1987 with a determined father and a boy whose reading struggles left him constantly begging to stay home from school. The father, John, was determined to help his son overcome his reading troubles, so he started by using the old-fashioned method of sounding out words.

The son had no idea what his father was doing as he tried to teach him this method of sounding out words. So quickly, it was time to try something different.

John wrote catchy jingles to accompany reading drills and developed an in-home learning program using phonics. To his delight, it worked! And the rest was history...

More than 30 years later, Hooked on Phonics is still the Gold Standard, household name for educational excellence. Today, more than 5,000,000 families and thousands of schools have turned to Hooked on Phonics to help their children and students reach their full potential.

Hooked on Spelling

Hooked on Spelling introduces learners to common spelling patterns through fun activities and game play, giving them a chance to practice their newly learned spelling skills. Hooked on Spelling is now INCLUDED in your Hooked on Phonics subscription!

Hooked on Phonics uses a proven, simple and fun method to give your child a strong foundation in Phonics and reading skills. Each lesson takes 20 minutes or less.

"People! Listen up! This is by far the BEST way to build literacy skills! I'm a 90s baby and I grew up on Hooked on Phonics. Now I get to share the same experience with my child! This platform is incredible to use, my son is 5 and has developed phonemic awareness, letter recognition and can write! Through the use of HOP, he has developed a love for literacy and that is a mother's DREAM!"

"Hooked on Phonics has been around for years and there's a reason for that...because it does work! It has made reading fun for my child. The lessons holds my child's interest! Best thing we ever bought our child! Learning can be fun!"

"I am a homeschool mom and purchased this to just reinforce reading. I wish I would have sooner. My daughter LOVES it and her reading has improved so much. I would recommend this to all parents."
