The goal: on day 10 your child splits a long word into its beats, and reads words like rabbit, sunset and jumping never seen before.
For the child who reads short words like ship and frog, but guesses or freezes at a longer word. About five minutes a day from you.
That is the goal, not a promise. Some children split words in a week, and some need the ten days twice. The plan teaches two-beat words with short vowels.

Six letters at once. A guess, or nothing.

Day 10
rabbit
Split it. Rab. Bit. Rabbit.
Your child reads cat and ship. Then a long word comes, and your child guesses from the first letters, or freezes. That does not mean your child is not trying. A long word has more letters than the eyes can sound out at once. So this plan teaches one move: split it into beats, read each beat, put it back together.

Hear a real sound track
This is the day 2 track your child works with. It waits, then gives the answer. Nothing listens back.
Step one is different
First, find where to start
Not every child who is stuck on long words is stuck in the same place. Day 1 is a four-minute check that shows you which day to start on.
✂️Long words are new
Guesses or freezes at sunset and kitten. Start at day 2.
kitten → “kit…?”
Easy splits are steady
Reads sunset and jumping, but stops at napkin and basket. Start at day 6.
napkin → ?
✅Reads them all
Go to the story on day 9, then do the final check.
Short words are hard
Short words with blends and sh, ch, th come first. Stop and Jump is the place to start.
You learn which split to start with, or that a short word plan comes first.

Day 5Keep going or repeatTen long words from days 2 to 4, then a game.
Day 10Long words never seenNew two-beat words and two sentences, marked by you.
It starts from a word your child can already read, and adds a beat: sun, then sunset; jump, then jumping. Then two letters the same in the middle (rab-bit), then two different ones (bas-ket). Then your child finds the split alone, reads bigger beats, and a story.
Everything in your pack
What you get to reach it
It is more than worksheets. It is the pages, someone showing you each day, and a voice that works with your child while you stay nearby.
22 pages
The book
Ten days of pages with the hand-drawn Sound It Out friends. A thin dashed line splits the beats, and a dot sits under every sound. Color and ink-saving black and white, US Letter and A4.
11 videos
A video for every day
One a day, about a minute. You see a long word split on screen, beat by beat, with the real sounds, before you begin. With captions.
4 tracks🎧
Sound tracks for your child
Days 2, 3, 4 and 6. The voice gives your child time to read each beat, then sounds out sunset or rabbit so your child can check alone.
2 checks
The day 1 and day 10 checks
Day 1 shows whether easy splits are new or only splits in the middle. Day 10 uses long words that are on no other page.
6 cardsrab | bit

What this is not
It is not a promise: some children split words within a week, some need the ten days twice. It teaches two-beat words with short vowels; beats like ro-bot, gar-den and ap-ple come later. Guessing at long words is not a sign of dyslexia by itself; if your child is eight or older, or reading is very hard in other ways, tell the teacher. No app, no screen. If blends and pairs like sh are not yet steady, start with Stop and Jump; the free check tells you. Printer and scissors needed.
Questions
What do I need to start?
The printed pages, a pencil, crayons, and scissors for the beat cards. No tablet or phone for your child.
What is a syllable?
A beat in a word. Each beat has one vowel sound. Cat has one beat. Rab-bit has two. Clapping a word helps the ear hear the beats.
How do I teach two-syllable words?
Start with two small words in one, like sun-set. Then a word your child knows with an ending: jump-ing. Then words that split between two letters in the middle: rab-bit, bas-ket. Your child reads one beat at a time, then says the whole word. That is the order of this plan.
Why does my child guess long words?
Because a long word has more letters than the eyes can sound out at once, so the child grabs the first letters and guesses. Splitting the word into beats turns one long word into two short ones the child can read.
How old should my child be?
Most children who need this are six to eight. Your child should already read short words with blends and pairs, like frog, ship and lunch. The free check shows you whether that step is steady.
How much time does each day take?
About five minutes. Two minutes on job 1 with you, then your child reads on alone, and reads three long words to you at the end.
My child still guesses long words. Now what?
Cover the second beat with a finger, have your child read the first, then uncover. Do the same day again tomorrow. Day 5 tells you whether to move on.
What comes after the ten days?
You can stop there. If you want daily practice to keep going, The One Sheet gives your child one sheet a day, made from what you tell us. It is a separate plan, $9.99 a month, and you can cancel any time.
Does anything record my child?
No. Nothing in this pack watches, listens to or records your child. You are the one who listens.
How do I get the videos and sound tracks?
The “start here” page of the book has a code to scan with your phone, and a short link. They open in your browser. There is nothing to install.
What if it is not right for us?
Write to hello@sounditoutreading.com within 30 days of buying and we will refund you. You do not need to give a reason, and you keep the pages.
