Reading, writing & spelling—build the skills that fuel lifelong learning. Teach them how. Teach them why. Teach them well. Here's how Pinwheels can help!

On July 16, 2025, we announced with heavy hearts that Rooted in Language will be winding down operations and closing effective July 15, 2026. Please see our Business Transition page.

If you are new to Pinwheels, you can still benefit greatly from this research-based curriculum! Once purchased, you can save the PDF downloads to your device for your family's ongoing use. Although our customer support will end on July 15, 2026, we will publish a public playlist on the Rooted in Language YouTube channel in June 2026 that will contain the Pinwheels and Wand instructional videos. This playlist will be available at least through July 15, 2028.

The last day for purchases in our Shop is March 31, 2026. PDF downloads and educator training videos will be available through June 30, 2026.

 

Pinwheels is a comprehensive early literacy curriculum that teaches reading, writing, and spelling together for the deepest learning.

Based on the Science of Reading, this engaging program includes unique, scripted lessons and practice, encompassing all language arts skill areas.

Build the strongest literacy foundation for your students while growing your confidence as a teacher!

Like all Rooted in Language products, Pinwheels incorporates research-based methods for teaching all learners, including those with dyslexia, dysgraphia, developmental language disorder, and other literacy-based struggles.

Pinwheels has helped me transform from a nervous and overwhelmed home educator into a confident teacher who is watching her daughter THRIVE. As a bookworm myself, I can’t thank this company enough for helping my daughter experience one of life’s greatest treasures, the ability to read.
