Description

McOmber is a surprisingly comprehensive phonics-based reading program, deceptively labeled “readers.” The easy-to-read stories provide gradual and systematic phonics coupled with writing activities that provide reinforcement. The Package includes 52 colorful, sequential, and progressive Readers, 52 black and white Writing Activity Booklets (10 sets) plus a no-nonsense Teaching Guide. The phonics progression is straight-forward: short vowels, consonants, word families, blends, long vowels including magic e, and r-controlled vowels. 

Readers provide character-based stories, lesson plans, new words, sound patterns, discussion questions, and review. Writing Activities Booklets provide pre-reading and post-reading writing practice of words and sentences as well as comprehension activities (with answers). The Teaching Guide explains and illustrates the features of the Readers and Writing Activities Booklets as well as providing teacher helps. The McOmber reading program will take your just-getting-started reader from CVC words up to chapter books.
