This workbook contains perforated pages that students can cut and fold into mini books. Each mini book introduces a word family using a catchy one-sentence rhyming story that incorporates four words with the same phonogram. Each mini book consists of 8 pages that build the sentence-story one line at a time. Students can practice letter formation by tracing the dotted outlines of the onset letters (the letters that appear before the rime) of each word. A review page is provided at the end of each booklet, allowing students to fill in missing letters to complete each key word introduced in the story. Kids will enjoy personalizing their mini books by coloring the cute illustrations on each page.

A set of word cards featuring each of the words introduced in the series is also included. Students can use these to create flash cards or in a modified game of memory where they match a word with another in the same word family. While fun for kids, this book is also teacher-friendly, and includes detailed instructions for making and using the word cards and mini books. Pb, 64 pgs, reproducible. ~ Rachel P.
