Does Hooked on Phonics teach all of the phonograms?

Updated over a month ago

As there are over 70 phonograms, Hooked on Phonics does not teach all of them explicitly in the current program. We do introduce a few at a time to ensure ample exposure and practice (per our literacy experts). This approach allows young children to master the sounds in order of frequency, including those with only one sound, without feeling overwhelmed.
​
Also, additional phonograms that are not in the Learn to Read section of the program are included in our spelling program, Hooked on Spelling (also included in your App purchase if you are a digital subscriber, and Practice Packs are available, too).
​
Once children come in contact with more challenging phonograms, including those with more than one sound, they will have the foundational skills to decode a new word, continuing to build fluency with this skill.
