Great Books

These books are excellent. They are well written in a story format and have words that fit the focus phonics pattern. These books have the perfect amount of practice for diphthongs, which are hard for students to learn. These stories were fun for my students and they enjoyed them. I have allowed my students to keep these books in their desk to continue reading to build fluency.

Includes 8 Pages of Reading Activities Per Book

  • Picture Match

    Reading words with new spelling patterns can be tricky for kids. Encourage your child to practice their new skills by reading each word and matching it with the correct picture.

  • Tapping Out Words

    One of the earliest steps in reading is recognizing the sounds that go into a word. This diphthong activity encourages children to sound words out and determine which letters work together to create a single sound.

  • Vocabulary Match

    Part of reading fluently is understanding the words on the page. Test your child's understanding and vocabulary by asking them to match each word to its proper definition.
