Bring Hope To Your Community
Currently, we are active in Sarasota and Manatee Counties, but if you want Rocket Phonics in your county or even a different state we can work together to make it happen. No child should go through school unable to read his or her textbooks. Just contact us.
WOULD YOU BE A GOOD FIT?
By age 8, a child’s reading ability can determine their future. Children not reading at grade level face a 50% risk of adult unemployment, perpetuating cycles of poverty and abuse. However, by helping children achieve grade-level reading, we can transform these cycles into hope, empowerment, and success. It’s 90 minutes for you and a lifetime for them. Make a lasting impact on a child’s life – volunteer today. Unsure? Shadow a session to see our work firsthand.
WOW! This Is Easy!
Brittany’s guide to Rocket Phonics games demystifies the teaching process. No need to memorize everything – it’s just to ease your mind. This unique approach to teaching reading focuses on fun, naturally leading children to internalize the phonics system. As a volunteer, your role is simple: relax, enjoy, and create a fun learning environment. The children’s progress will follow.
Evaluating A New Student
Elementary students’ reading abilities vary widely, which can be daunting for new volunteers. That’s where our site coordinators step in. They assess each child’s skill level and provide you with a tailored starting point. As a new volunteer, you’ll begin with this guidance, setting you up for a successful and impactful experience from day one.
Our vision is our mission
The Rocket Phonics Foundation’s mission is to save lives one reader at a time.
Our organization focuses on closing the reading achievement gap through the use of the Rocket Phonics reading program.
WHO WE ARE
Our approach starts with caring individuals committed to their community’s children. We partner with local facilities – preschools, churches, or both – to create welcoming learning spaces. Our trained volunteers then engage children with tailored phonics games, making reading education fun and effective. This simple yet powerful model brings literacy support right to your neighborhood.
