Summary

This highly-successful supplement has proven especially helpful to those teachers without an adequate background in phonics. With its updated instructional methods and accessible format, this edition provides all of the phonics background needed by teachers to help elementary pupils become independent readers. Because students advance through the material at their own pace, this text is ideal for covering this essential area in minimal class time.

Features

This book puts strong emphasis on the need for phonics in light of research which shows that reading achievement is higher when programs include phonics instruction.
The programmed text guides readers as they work independently. In a series of small steps, readers learn the terminology, develop the concepts, and grasp the knowledge through reinforcement and review.
Readers can easily measure their learning through brief and comprehensive reviews, as well as pre and post-tests. NEW TO THIS EDITION
