4.9 out of 5 from 37 reviews
As a reading specialist, I am picky about foundational language arts curriculum. I LOVE that Meadowlark follows the science of reading and uses research-based instruction.
Julie H. · Language Arts
I was having a hard time finding a fun, kinesthetic style, play based, secular program. Then I came across Meadowlark. I found the unicorn I was looking for.
Miranda E. · Mega Bundle
My kid is so excited for the readers and for the activities. She begged me to do math on a weekend.
Cheyenne F. · Language Arts and Math
Dr. Chepina Rumsey
This curriculum doesn't rush the students, but gently guides towards big understandings and builds a foundation that will continue for all of their schooling.

Language Arts

Kindergarten language arts, built on the science of reading

Your child learns letters in the research-based SATPIN order, so they start blending and reading real words within the first few weeks. Every step is hands-on, and it all leads to stories you read together.

  • Explicit phonics: phonological awareness, blending, segmenting and Heart Words
  • Orton-Gillingham inspired, multisensory practice: see it, say it, move it
  • Eight Team Readers with four stories each, made for reading side by side
  • Conversation prompts that grow vocabulary and words for feelings

What age is Meadowlark Kindergarten for?

Meadowlark Kindergarten is made for five- and six-year-olds. If your child isn't quite ready for kindergarten work yet, our Preschool curriculum for ages 3 to 5 is a gentle place to start.

How long do kindergarten lessons take?

Most lessons take 30 minutes or less. Each subject is built for four days a week and flexes easily to three or five, so it fits your family's rhythm.

Is Meadowlark Kindergarten secular?

Yes. Meadowlark is fully secular, with strong academics, kindness, and stories that reflect all kinds of families. There is no religious content.

Do I need teaching experience?

No. Parent prompts in every lesson tell you what to say and do, and Simplify and Expand ideas help when your child needs a little less or a little more.

Does it follow the science of reading?

Yes. Letters come in the research-based SATPIN order, phonics is explicit and systematic, and practice is multisensory in the Orton-Gillingham tradition. Children blend and read real words within the first few weeks.

Which kindergarten bundle should I choose?

The Mega Bundle covers a full year of Language Arts, Math and Handwriting with every manipulative. If you already have one subject covered, the Language Arts or Math Bundle gives you that subject and its hands-on tools.

Should I get printed books or the PDF?
