Prior to starting these supplemental readers, students should have mastered the short-vowel and consonant sounds, blending short vowels with consonants, and adding ending consonants to single syllable words. This set of three stories (2 animal and 1 Bible) will practice the Abeka® Phonics progression of mastering the one-vowel and learning the two-vowel rules, including the special sounds taught in their Basic Phonics Charts 6-13. The publisher recommends using this set in combination with their kindergarten reading program. The corresponding Teacher Edition (item 047756) provides a wrap-around format with all 3 readers, including answers, teaching procedures and tips, vocabulary and problematic words, and a reading tracker form.
