Field notes
The instructional model maps individual sounds, blends, and digraphs to recurring characters, turning repetition into a narrative task. A separate vocabulary track uses Latin roots as a way to break down larger words, with the homepage claiming that one root can open up roughly thirty words. The project also lists short-form animated lessons and a YouTube channel as works in progress, alongside classroom and camp use cases.
