Why MCP D instead of ETC 7 & 8?
- Sonlight chose to include MCP Word Study D because it is a more thorough review of all phonics at a lower cost.
- In reviewing these materials, we felt that the MCP materials were a better "fit" at the higher levels. I don't believe we've done an "item by item" comparison of the two programs, so I can't say that everything in one program is covered in another. However, given that phonics is a fairly finite body of knowledge, I would feel comfortable saying that the MCP program will provide a thorough coverage of phonetic concepts.
