Description
5 Books in 1! Each book has 100 to 130 words. Great for kids who are not ready for the longer chapter books. The DOG ON A LOG Book series help kids, including kids with dyslexia, learn to read. They are sound-out books that start with just a few phonics rules. Each following Step of books adds a few more phonics rules and sight words. This gradual progression helps kids learn to read without feeling so overwhelmed. Start anywhere in the series based on your child's reading skills. The word list below will help you decide where in the series your child should start. The "Look Inside" feature will help you determine if this book is right for your reader. The (purple) Let's GO! books have fewer words for new or less confident readers. The (red) chapter books are longer for more reading practice. Books can be bought individually or as collection volumes. This is a collection of five Step 2 "Let’s GO!" book. New readers love reading books that look like "regular" books. They especially love reading "real chapter books." Multiple chapter books in each Step means struggling readers are more likely to master the phonics without memorizing the books. Research shows the most effective way to teach reading is with explicit systematic phonics. That means you teach a few phonics rules then the student practices reading books with just the rules they have been taught. Each DOG ON A LOG Book has a list of the "sight words" that cannot be sounded- out with the presented phonics. Kids can learn those words before beginning each book. The listed sight words will be the only words in the book that cannot be sounded-out with the rules from the DOG ON A LOG Phonics Progression. Many early reader books, leveled books, and even "Beginning Phonics Books" are written so they cannot be sounded-out. Kids often struggle and grow frustrated when they can't sound out the words. However, kids who have been taught the phonics in DOG ON A LOG Decodable Books can be proud when they are able to sound out and read almost every word. DOG ON A LOG Books follow an Orton Gillingham/systematic phonics-based progression. For additional information on using this series, see the Kindle Book: How to Use Decodable Books to Teach Reading. Paper books are optimized for learners with dyslexia. They have cream-colored paper, black and white images, and large Verdana font. Verdana is one of the most dyslexia-friendly fonts. Kindle books have color images. DOG ON A LOG "What Step Should We Start With" Word List Have your child read the following words.
