Description

Instill a love of reading and practice phonics skills with the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Reading Basics Set, a set of five readers. A requirement of  the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Language Arts curriculum, each reader includes a compilation of short stories. A study guide with comprehension questions for the entire series is also included. The readers use a progression of words from 1- and 2-syllable words with basic long and short vowel sounds to more advanced multi-syllable words with more complex phonetic structures. Stories gradually increase in length and include fiction and non-fiction. The five reader titles are: Dog in the Tub, Cotton Candy, Oats Are for Goats, Flying My Kite, and The Gold Coin.


Since these flexible readers are based on basic phonics rules and principles, they can be used in conjunction with any systematic phonics program. The set of five readers are fun and engaging and include high-frequency words sight words, which are listed at the beginning of each story. Drilling of these sight words is recommended for increased fluency. While this series can be used independently, the two-part teacher's guide in LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Language Arts incorporates the readers within lesson instructions. Build your child's reading skills with the fun, phonics-focused stories in the LIFEPAC® 1st Grade Reading Basics Set!

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.
