Children will love reading when they can do it effortlessly! Use the Stepping Up In Reading books to develop accuracy and fluency so that children understand what they read.

Stepping Up In Reading: Building Accuracy and Fluency Book 2 contains word, phrase, and sentence lists that provide practice in decoding, word recognition, and expressive reading.
