Master Course and Lessons

Phonics 1b is designed similar to a text book, you can start at the beginning and read to the end, or you can go to a chapter/leeson you want. Phonics 1b is the master course and contains all of the lessons of the course. However, a teacher can assign individual lessons to the students, to work on the specific skills or subjects.

Each lesson is similar a chapter of a book, and is much shorter than the large master course. The lessons can be usually be completed in one setting. Students can earn a "Gold Star Certivicate of Achiement" in each lesson and in the master course. The course/lesson icon will show a gold star when a student completes a lesson or course, indicating completion.
