We use this along with Barton reading and spelling which is a dyslexia reading program. It has been wonderful. My youngest is now going through the begaining books. Love it!

My DS son went through all of the explode the code books and loved doing them. He learned to write, sound out letters and read through this series.

When my 6 year old does her Explode the Code workbooks my 4 year old enjoys doing Get ready for the code. This workbook is simple and easy to understand. It has helped him to understand the different letters, their sounds, how to write them and identify the first sounds of words.

It is 100% my fault for not double checking before purchasing. However so that others may know if they missed it this is not ment to be a full curriculum. I did purchase A,B and C but I didn't understand that this is supposed to be used with another primary english program for Kindergarten.

I am giving it full stars because it does do what it advertised. It is a good aid my childern have enjoyed it and I do think its a good program.

I used these books for each of my children, from the more academically gifted to our youngest who has Down syndrome. The books provide wonderful practice while teaching phonics basics in an engaging manner.
