Early Literacy Foundations | Kindergarten Phonics Homeschool Curriculum, Phonological Awareness for Pre-Readers, Foundations Book One

Before children learn to read, they learn to hear.

Foundations Book One: Little Ears, Ready to Hear is a gentle pre-reading curriculum designed to build strong early literacy foundations through listening, rhyme awareness, oral language development, and sound play.

Created for preschool and kindergarten-aged learners, this thoughtfully structured program helps children develop the phonological awareness skills needed before formal phonics instruction begins.
