The program is rooted in the Science of Reading offers a unique method for teaching phonics skills through a new way of creating stories. This program also provides the student opportunities to develop vocabulary, syntax and comprehension while expressing his/her own creativity and imagination. Constrained Narrative Architecture (CNA) Method not only moves students beyond rote memorization when learning how to decode word lists, but also teaches students how to build themed stories using the newly-acquired phonics skills. Once students have created a complete themed story, they will have an understanding of the phonics rules used in the story, plus vocabulary, syntax and comprehension.

Search for: phonics programs, science of reading, early literacy, kindergarten reading programs, first grade phonics programs, second grade literacy programs, decodable activities, reading intervention programs, story building worksheets, fill-in-the-blank worksheets, structured literacy center materials, homeschool phonics programs, constant vowel, constant e, constant combination sounds, and constant blends of vowel sounds. The reason why parents and schools are happy is because the curriculum is based on scientific principles, known as the "Science of Reading." This means that the curriculum teaches children to read the right way and progresses from the recognition of the individual sounds to being able to read smoothly and understand what they are reading. Phonics becomes fun instead of boring since this curriculum substitutes the traditional rote phonics drills with engaging themed activities. Children become so involved in creating an imaginative story with dinosaurs or by creating a real-life story about a space station that they do not even realize they are really learning important phonics skills. True comprehension of what to read is developed because this resource requires students to select the word that completes a sentence so that it will make sense. This develops the child’s ability to read for meaning as opposed to simply reading out loud. This resource is designed to be easily differentiated as the teacher’s guide contains suggestions for helping struggling readers (such as those with dyslexia) and those working at an advanced level, making it suitable for all students in a diverse classroom or homeschool environment. This resource is comprehensive and ready to be implemented right away, as it includes not only the worksheets that are used in the program, but also has a complete teacher’s guide, student activities to use with the worksheets, and an answer key. Everything you need!
