This series of readers provides reading practice geared to an Orton-Gillingham phonogram presentation as well as questions designed to cover vocabulary, inferential comprehension, and personal response. The books are a nice, half-page size with black and white line art drawings. Volume 1 (books 1-18) covers consonants, short vowels, consonant digraphs, two-syllable compound words, and ff/ll/ss/zz. An Audio CD of this level provides a reading of the stories. Volume 2 (books 19-36) covers syllabication, consonant blends, ng/nk endings, syllable division, and magic E. Series 3 (books 37 - 39) covers alternative spellings and pronunciations, three-syllable words, 'schwa,' and affixes. The emphasis of Volume 3 is spelling rules, and it illustrates the relationship between phonics and spelling. These readers are integrated into the Recipe for Reading program but can also be used with other programs or as stand-alone reading practice. ~ Janice

Great reading program
I love Recipe for Reading and their associated readers. I have taught many children how to read using this curriculum. It has been around for decades and is based in science.
It was the most affordable and it goes along with the series, which is working great with my kindergarten and first graders! Highly recommended! Lots of great strategies included!
