The goal: on day 10 your child says every sound in words like stop, jump and frog, and reads blend words never seen before.
For the child who reads short words like cat and hop, but reads stop as top and jump as jup. About five minutes a day from you.
That is the goal, not a promise. Some children have blends in a week, and some need the ten days twice. The plan teaches blends at the end and at the start, and five-sound words.

From top to stop

stop
“stop” read as “top.” A sound is left out.

Day 10
stop
A dot for each letter. Every sound, then the word.
Your child reads top. Then one letter is added at the start, and the word is read as top again. That does not mean your child is not trying. Said fast, two sounds side by side run together, so the ear catches only one. So this plan teaches one habit: every letter gets its sound.

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 blends is stuck in the same place. Day 1 is a four-minute check that shows you which day to start on.
✂️Blends are new
Leaves a sound out: stop read as top. Start at day 2.
stop → “top”
The first blends are steady
Reads hand and stop, but stops at frog and stamp. Start at day 6.
stamp → ?
✅Reads them all
Go to the story on day 9, then do the final check.
Short words are hard
Short words like cat and hop come first. The blending plan is the place to start.
The check points you to day 2, day 6 or the story, or to the blending plan when short words are not firm yet.

Day 10Blend words never metNew blend words and two new sentences. You mark them yourself.
It starts from a word your child can already read, and adds one sound: ten, then tent; top, then stop. Blends at the end first, because they are easier to hear. Then at the start, one family a day: with s, with l, with r. Then five-sound words, 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 dot under every sound, so two letters side by side show two dots. 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 the day’s blends tapped out on tiles, letter by letter, with the real sounds, before you sit down. With captions.
5 tracks🎧
Sound tracks for your child
Days 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7. Your child points under each letter while the voice waits, then hears stop, frog or stamp sounded out, and checks the answer alone.
2 checks
The day 1 and day 10 checks
Day 1 sorts end blends, start blends and five-sound words, so you skip what is already firm. Day 10 uses blend words printed on no other page.

Each card shows two letters side by side, a word and a picture: sl in sled, fl in flag, cr in crab. Your child reads them first each day.

What this is not
It is not a promise: some children hear every sound in a blend within a week, others need the ten days twice. It covers consonant blends only. Pairs such as sh, ch and th make one new sound; they are in Ship and Chip. Dropping a sound in a blend is not a sign of dyslexia on its own; if your child is seven or older, or reading is very hard in other ways too, talk to the teacher as well. There is no app and no screen time. A child who cannot read cat and hop yet starts with the blending plan, and the free check shows that. You will need a printer and scissors.
Questions
What do I need besides the pages?
A printer, a pencil, crayons, and scissors for the six blend cards. Nothing else, and no screen for your child.
What is a consonant blend?
Two or three consonants side by side, where each one keeps its own sound: st in stop, fl in flag, nd in hand. Your child already knows every sound. What is new is saying them one right after the other.
Why does my child read stop as top?
Said fast, two sounds side by side run together, so the ear catches only one, and the eyes skip a letter. It is very common. A finger under every letter, and a sound for every letter, fixes the habit.
Should I teach blends at the end or at the start first?
At the end. Blends at the end, like hand and lamp, are easier to hear, so this plan starts there. Then blends at the start, one family a day: with s, with l, and with r.
How old should my child be?
Most children who need this are five to seven. Your child should already read short words like cat, hop and sit, even slowly. The free check shows you whether that step is steady.
How long does a blends day take?
About five minutes: two minutes on the first job with you, then your child works with the sound track and reads three blend words to you at the end.
What if my child still drops a sound?
Go back one day and do the pairs again: top, then stop. Put a finger under every letter. The day 5 check tells you whether to go on or repeat days 2 to 4.
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.
