Description

As a part of the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Language Arts curriculum from AOP, Reading Basics Book 2 is a colorful reader that features 24 easy-to-read stories that increase in length and difficulty. Utilizing 1- and 2-syllable, short vowel words, the reader includes important phonics concepts, such as short vowel words, beginning and ending consonant digraphs, consonant blends, and compound words.


Cotton Candy, the second in a series of five readers, utilizes the inclusion of high-frequency words, which are also called sight words or instant words, to increase the interest level of the stories. Since drilling of high-frequency sight words helps to increase fluency, Reading Basics Book 2 lists all instant words utilized within the reader. While this reader can be used independently, teaching instructions for incorporation into the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Language Arts homeschool program are detailed within the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Language Arts Teacher's Guides. Comprehension questions can also be found in the Reading Basics Reader Study Guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is LIFEPAC taught and how much work should we do every day?

It is student led and mastery based. All lesson instructions are in the student’s books. Teacher guides give additional ideas and cover the theme as well as provide answer keys. Each unit is intended for 18 days. Roughly that works out to 3 pages per day per subject. However, you can decide how long your school year will be and calculate how many pages per day that would amount to.

What is the difference between a Box Set and a Student Grade Set?

A Box Set includes 10 student books and a teacher’s guide. A Student Grade Set includes 10 student books but does not include a teacher’s guide.

How do I keep my records and who does the grading?

There is an area in the front of your teacher’s guide to place grades, but we also have student record books and cumulative files you can purchase for keeping records. Because LIFEPAC is a curriculum option, the parent oversees the students daily work, grading and record keeping. As the parent, you will need to make sure you are meeting your state board of education’s requirements.

Is LIFEPAC a complete curriculum?

Yes, it provides the five core subjects: Bible, History & Geography, Language Arts, Math, and Science. It also offers many electives for Middle School and High School students.

Are there other families I can connect with who use LIFEPAC?

Absolutely! There are multiple LIFEPAC Facebook groups available for you to join. Find the one that’s right for you and you’ll never feel alone in homeschooling.
