PLACEMENT READER 1 FREE (Read me after Book 1)

Not sure where your child should start? This free placement reader tells you in about five minutes.

Your child reads a short, cheerful story out loud to you (120 words, about a big horse, a fox, and her cubs). Every word uses only the sounds taught in Book 1, From A to ___, so a child who has finished Book 1 can read it smoothly without help.

Inside the PDF:

• A simple parent guide and results chart: start Book 1, or move on to Book 2
• A "Still tricky?" page that matches each sound in the story to the Book 1 lesson that teaches it
• The story as a little fold-up book (print 2 sheets double-sided), or read it on a tablet
• Dyslexia-friendly design: clear print, extra spacing, and reading marks on long vowels and silent letters

Free to print for your own child or students.
