Phonics and math are the only subjects not included in the Junior packages.

However, for your convenience, phonics has been incorporated into the textbook in the following manner.

Kindergarten Package: The Kindergarten Package includes the Basic Package plus the specially-developed Teach Me, Too! Emergent Reader Kindergarten package, utilizing Eric Carle’s Animals Animals, The Rooster Crows, and a sign language chart. Instructions for using Teach Me, Too! are included in the Word Study (Part D) sections of the lessons.
1st and/or 2nd Grade Packages: These packages include the Basic Package and an appropriate Learning Language Arts through Literature (LLATL) program by Debbie Strayer and Susan Simpson. These have been integrated into the Word Study (Part D) and Guided Reading (Part G) portions of Junior each day. The 1st Grade Package includes the Blue Book Boxed Set. The 2nd Grade Package includes the Red Book Boxed Set.
Kindergarten Add-on: This package includes only the Emergent Reader books and sign language chart. You do not need this If you also order the Kindergarten Package.

Of course, you may choose to use a different phonics/language program. We have incorporated LLATL because it follows our philosophy of teaching language skills with a natural, whole-language approach. This will also make for a smooth transition to the Trail Guide to Learning series in the future.
