Description
Phonics Intervention Bundle for Older Struggling Readers | Consonant & Vowel Sounds Practice | Middle School Reading Support
Build strong decoding foundations with this two-in-one bundle designed specifically for older struggling readers.
Many middle, high, and upper elementary students still need explicit, targeted instruction in vowel and consonant sounds before they can confidently tackle multisyllabic words.
This Science of Reading-aligned bundle offers age-appropriate, hands-on practice to help striving readers close critical phonics gaps—without feeling too elementary.
Whether you’re teaching Tier 2 intervention, special education, or supporting small groups in ELA or reading electives, this bundle equips you with low-prep tools to meet your students where they are and move them forward.
