Wild Reading Level Two Curriculum

Wild Reading® Level 2 builds on the early reading skills taught in Level 1  to help children become confident, proficient readers through a blend of nature-based learning, multisensory activities, and explicit, sequential phonics instruction based on the Orton-Gillingham approach. Developed based on Rachel’s classroom and homeschool experience, doctoral research in literacy and curriculum design, and the science of how children learn to read, it offers parents a clear, practical path for supporting their child’s growing literacy skills.

In Level 2, children progress from reading short vowel words to mastering long vowels, vowel teams, R-controlled vowels, and two-syllable words. Skills are introduced in a logical sequence, taught explicitly, and practiced at the word, sentence, and passage level using engaging activities, The Wild Reader decodable story collection, and fluency word cards.

Comprehension is strengthened through quality read-alouds, discussion, and activities that build background knowledge and explore key strategies such as summarizing, making connections, and inferring. Weekly, nature-inspired writing and enrichment activities keep learning creative and hands-on, while built-in flexibility allows families to adapt lessons for indoor or outdoor settings.
