Decodable Books for Homeschool

Decodable Books for Your Homeschool

Running a homeschool phonics program means you're already the teacher, the curriculum planner, and the one who notices when a book is either too easy or full of words your child hasn't been taught yet. Innerlinks decodable books are built to make that last part simple.

What a homeschool phonics program needs from a decodable

  • A clear starting point, so you're not guessing which book matches where your child actually is.
  • Text that stays inside the sounds already taught, so your child can read it independently instead of you prompting every second word.
  • Enough of them to make repeated practice worthwhile, not just one book per stage.
  • A story worth finishing, so it doesn't feel like a worksheet with a cover on it.

How Innerlinks fits your homeschool week

Each of the five sets targets a specific phonics stage. Set 1 covers first CVC blending. Set 2 expands into new consonants and short u and e. Set 3 completes the alphabet and introduces consonant blends. Set 4 reviews short vowels with more complex blends. Set 5 introduces digraphs. Every book names its phonics focus, so you always know which one comes next.

Each title ships with a free bonus phonics game on the back page, giving your child a second way to practice the same sound pattern once the story is finished.

If you're using UFLI, All About Reading, or another structured program

Innerlinks books are 100% UFLI compatible and mapped lesson by lesson, so if your homeschool already runs on UFLI Foundations, the fit is exact. If you're using a different structured phonics program, the books still work, every Innerlinks set follows a scope and sequence built on the Science of Reading, so the phonics stages line up even where the lesson numbers don't.

Built for dyslexic readers too

Generous letter spacing, clear typography, and tightly controlled text run through every book. If you're homeschooling a dyslexic reader, or simply want to rule out visual crowding as a barrier, that design is already built in, not an upgrade.

Quick questions

Do I need a teaching background to use these?

No. You're already the teacher in your homeschool. Each book states its phonics focus on the cover, so you can match book to lesson without needing to interpret a scope and sequence document yourself.

How is this different from the free Ready to Read Phonics Plus books?

The Ministry of Education's free series is a genuinely solid resource, and if it's working for your family, that's a good outcome. Innerlinks is built for families who want UFLI-specific alignment, dyslexia-friendly typography throughout, and a bonus game in every book, in a series designed to be read and reread as a set, not just borrowed from a library rotation.

Can one set cover more than one child?

Yes. Books are reusable across children working at the same phonics stage, and Complete Sets bundle every title so you're not buying titles one at a time as your reader progresses.
