Designed to be used independently by the student who has had some phonics instruction but still struggles with phonics concepts, this colorful worktext provides lots of phonics practice. There is a full consonant review, but the activities are particularly strong on vowel concepts. It can be used either as a component of the 2nd grade reading program or to present an effective foundation in phonics for a student who was introduced to reading with little or no phonics instruction. The book is also an effective tool for ESL students. The general theme for the book is "going places," and the varied exercises and activities take students to grandma's house, the park, the zoo, the canyon rim, Washington D.C, and space. The answer key contains reduced student pages. ~ Janice
I got this for my 3rd grader who appears to struggle with spelling and might have some sort of dysgraphia or dyslexia challenges (pending testing). It is a great review and is helping him build confidence. This has also been great for my 1st grader who appears to be about grade level.
