This free parent guide is designed to help you confidently use any of our reading workbooks at home - no teaching background required.
All elemenoe workbooks and this guide were developed by a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and a Registered Behaviour Analyst (RBA), integrating evidence-based literacy instruction with practical behavioural supports for real-world learning.
Whether your child is working on short vowels, blends, digraphs, welded sounds, or more advanced reading patterns, this guide shows you exactly how to support each activity in a simple and consistent way.
Inside, you’ll find:
Step-by-step guidance on how to use each activity across all workbooks
Clear explanations of what your role is during reading practice (and what to avoid)
Practical strategies to support blending, decoding, and word reading
Support for what to do when your child gets stuck, guesses, or loses focus
Tips to build routine and consistency without pressure or overwhelm
This guide also includes integrated insights from both disciplines:
Speech-Language Pathology (SLP): supporting speech sound awareness, language processing, and early literacy skills
Registered Behaviour Analyst (RBA): strategies to support engagement, motivation, and successful learning routines, especially for neurodivergent children
This resource is designed to be used alongside all Word Quest reading workbooks, helping you feel confident, supported, and clear on how to help your child grow as a reader.
