Revised Mixed Short Vowel Words And Sentences Coming Soon

Read Now
 
Picture
After revising the Rhyming Short Vowel Words And Sentences book, I'm working on the Mixed Short Vowel Words And Sentences book.  This book is used at the beginning of first grade. It is set up so that the class will cover short a, e, i, o, and u words completely (but not in that order) by the time they have learned/reviewed how to write all of the alphabet letters, studying one new letter per day. In first grade you have to "hit the ground running," so to speak, because there is so much to cover before the end of the year.  At the same time, you have to be sure that everyone can write the alphabet letters accurately and automatically and decode short vowel words with confidence so they will be successful when learning to read and spell words with phonogram patterns.  
I'm doing a major revision of the book, eliminating the first short i pages, reordering many of the short vowel pages, and revising many of the word lists on the picture/word pages. The words and pictures will be the same, but I'm setting it up so there's less jumping around from one short vowel to the next.  I'm going to try to add a section to the instructions explaining how to integrate reading and spelling  with this book and how to prepare students for the next level by teaching the patterns from Part 2 of the sound story.
