Homeschool & ESA Families

We give families the tools, structure, and support to make reading time work at home.

The Reading Alliance (TRA) makes it simple for Arizona ESA families and homeschool parents to bring structured, joyful literacy learning home. Our ABCs to Reading Framework gives you everything you need—step-by-step lessons, hands-on materials, and guidance that builds confidence in both you and your child.

The ABCs to Reading Difference

Structured literacy that feels doable, not overwhelming.

  • Structured Literacy Made Simple: Teach the Big 5 of Reading—phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension—through short, consistent lessons you can run in 15–20 minutes a day.

  • Ready-to-Use Kits: Each kit includes decodable books, alphabet cards, letter tiles, teacher guides, and progress trackers—all designed for parents, not professional educators.

  • Confidence-Building Support: You’ll get guidance from TRA’s certified educators and step-by-step training videos, so you never have to guess what comes next.

  • ESA-Approved & Arizona-Aligned: TRA programs qualify for Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) funding, making high-quality literacy instruction accessible to every family.
