Have Questions about Level 2?
Level 2 has 57 lessons. Please know that the lessons in All About Reading are not meant to be completed in one day.
In fact, some lessons may take a week or more to finish. A number of variables contribute to how quickly a lesson can be completed: your student’s age, attention span, prior experience, the difficulty of the concept being taught, and the length of the stories.
If you are teaching more than one student at a time, you will need to order additional Student Packets for each student. The Level 2 Materials contain enough for teaching one student.
If you will be reusing your Level 2 Materials for future students, you can reuse the Student Packets. Download extra consumable components of the Level 2 Student Packet here:
