Heading ClickN READ Phonics curriculum development team is J. Ron Nelson, Ph.D., whose prolific career in education spans nearly two decades, and is distinguished by numerous nationally recognized research projects, over 150 published papers and two books.
The ClickN READ Phonics curriculum includes 100 carefully sequenced online lessons that combine animation with interactive exercises to create a connection between phonemic awareness and alphabetic understanding that results in automatic decoding skills essential to read. The program teaches everything from basic letter sounds and word blends to sight words, word families, prefixes, suffixes, sentence construction and short stories. The result is a comprehensive and personalized learning program that takes the parent-teacher-student relationship to unparalleled levels of reading achievement and growth.

ClickN READ Phonics features four primary learning environments, including: The Letter/Sound Chamber, where all new letters, letter combinations and their corresponding sounds are introduced; The Listening Cube, where children learn the beginning, middle and ending letter sounds in words as well as word blends; The Reading Room, where the more complex exercises take place, such as reading sentences, sight words, spelling, suffixes and prefixes, sentence construction and the silent 'e rule'; The Speed Chamber, where all letter sounds and words taught thus far are reviewed and tested for student comprehension and parent assessment. Together, the Letter/Sound Chamber, Listening Cube, Reading Room and Speed Chamber simulate the teacher-student relationship, providing children and ESL students the decoding skills required to master reading.
Originally introduced for use in the classroom, ClickN READ Phonics has become recognized by educators in the U.S. and around the world as an effective introductory reading system for first-time readers. At the same time, ClickN READ Phonics has also proven itself with other students, such as ESL in middle and high schools, children with cochlear ear implants and autistic children.
