Science of Reading In-a-Click Lessons BUNDLE | Full Year Small-Group Curriculum
The Science of Reading "In-a-Click Lessons" program, developed by Tara West at Little Minds at Work, is a comprehensive initiative centered around the science of reading, employing a systematic approach. The program follows a structured 6-step process for each activity, encompassing isolated sounds for learning, warm-up exercises with isolated words, word mapping, manipulation of sounds in words, encoding or writing words, and decoding phrases.

Each set of 5 lesson plans includes a cohesive all-in-one page designed for students to read sounds, successively blend skill-based words, and engage in additional word blending. Following the warm-up on each page, students decode a skill-based passage to apply learning, with these passages strategically crafted over 5 days to facilitate fluency development. Implementation time for lessons may vary based on teaching style and can be adapted to various settings, such as standard classroom instruction, small-group sessions, tutoring, intervention programs, homeschooling, and volunteer-led sessions.
The lessons are explicitly and systematically designed to ensure immediate success for all implementers. Pacing is flexible and contingent upon individual student progress, allowing for extended time in a lesson as needed. Ideally, each lesson should be repeated for two sessions, resulting in a 50-day unit of instruction.

Necessary supplies: whiteboard, marker, dry-erase sleeve, manipulatives for mapping
Sets Included:
ABCs
CVC WORDS
DIGRAPHS AND BEGINNING BLENDS
CVCE WORDS
ENDING BLENDS AND R-CONTROL
VOWEL VARIANTS
Included material for each set:
- 25 lesson plans (across 5 pages) Ideal instruction is 2 days per lesson, making this set 50 academic days
- generic mapping mat
- 5 all-in-one pages (sounds, successive blending, word level decoding, and decodable passage)
- 25 student practice pages (10 in Unit 1)
Lesson Plan Components:
Sound to Learn: State the sound orally. Student states the matching letter. OR Write the sound. Student orally states the sound.
Warm-Up Words: Write the word for the student. Student decodes the word. Sound-by-sound decoding is appropriate.
Words to Map: Orally state the word. Student says the word, counts the sounds, and pushes an item into each box as they state the sounds.
Words to Chain: State the word and the sound swap. “Take away /sh/ and swap it with /ch/. What is the new word?”
Words to Write: State the word. Student repeats the word, counts the sounds, and writes the word.
Decodable Phrase to Read: Write the phrase for the student to decode. Ask for repeated readings 2-3 times to build fluency.
Apply to Learn: Student reads the sounds and successively blends words. “/f/, /fi/, fish.” Student blends isolated words. Student reads the passage.
