Description
I can't imagine that reviewing and practicing phonics can get much easier than it is with these workbooks which are aligned to Common Core Standards by grade level. An overview of the phonics skills to be covered is listed on one page in the front of the book, followed by daily lessons. There is a weekly teacher page telling you what phonics skill you will cover that week. You are given tips as well as explicit instruction on how to introduce the new skill and guide students through their lessons. Daily student pages include activities to help students learn the weekly phonics skill. Listening, speaking, reading and writing activities provide multiple opportunities to learn and practice. They also have a daily dictation. Many illustrations help to keep students' interest. Pages in the Grade Level Teacher Books are reproducible for classrooms or families plus there is an easy-to-use answer key in the back in case you get stuck. Short, simple and effective lessons that are laid out in an easy format for parents or teachers to follow are a win for all sides. 208 pgs, pb. ~ Sara
