Time2Read online empowers children to become confident readers and spellers by developing
• Vital SKILLS underlying reading and spelling

2. Level 1: Mastering alphabet sound/symbols in short words
3. Level 2: Mastering the most common spellings for long vowels, extra vowels and consonant digraphs in short words
4. Level 3: Mastering multi-syllable words, introducing uncommon spellings as well as spelling rules.
