Publisher's Description of Extra Practice for Struggling Readers - Word Study
When successful readers encounter unfamiliar words, they utilize strategies--for example, identifying word parts such as syllables and suffixes--to help them figure out pronunciation and meaning. This resource offers dozens of practice pages that give older struggling readers multiple opportunities to review and apply these word-study skills, recognize common spelling patterns, boost their word recognition and vocabulary development, and gain confidence as they read and encounter new words. As a result, students become more fluent readers.
Featuring over 24 lessons, each of these focused-skill Scholastic workbooks builds and hones specific reading skills. Though the series targets "struggling readers," each will benefit any reader as they develop skills. Each book introduces the specified concept, provides examples, then follows with exercises to practice concepts. Books provide brief teaching tips and answers. Students who need reinforcement with CVC and digraph words will benefit from the Phonics workbook. High-Frequency Words works through 240 essential sight words. Word Families teach prefixes and suffixes, Latin and Greek roots, plurals and more. Nonreproducible, 80 pgs, pb. ~Ruth
