Notes:
Decodable text is a type of text used in beginning reading instruction. Decodable texts are carefully sequenced to progressively incorporate words that are consistent with the letter–sound relationships that have been taught to the new reader. The BookLife Readers begin with the very basics of phonetically decodable reading. Starting with the earliest step of CVC words - words comprising a consonant, a vowel and a consonant. The graphemes (written letters) and phonemes (units of sound) used throughout this series are aligned with Letters and Sounds. This offers a consistent approach to learning whether reading at home or in the classroom.As a reader moves through the levels, the page numbers, level of repetition and sentence structure complexity all advance at a rate which encourages development without halting enjoyment. Includes helpful hints and tips for teachers and parents Listed are common words that a child may find tricky at the end of book: water ; where ; would ; know ; thought ; through ; couldn't ; laughed ; eyes ; once ; we're ; school ; can't ; our.2 stories in 1 book.
