Publisher's Description of Miles and Jax
Entertaining stories forchildren in Foundations C and other developing readers. MeetMiles and Jax

Jax is a talking meerkat whose boundless curiosity and enthusiasm tend to get him into tight spots. Thankfully, his human friend Miles is there to help him and teach him everything he needs to know about life. Along the way, their adventures lead to the kind of crazy, hilarious moments that only two best friends can have.

Reading thestories - without memorizing sight words!

Miles and Jaxprovides four phonics-controlled readingtexts used in the first half of level C of Logic of English Foundations.

Kids will love reading about Miles and Jax, whose engaging stories disguise the fact that these are actually phonics readers, carefully designed so that students using Logic of English®Foundationscan sound out every word, even those commonly taught as sight words. Building on just a few concepts at a time, these readers help kids cross that magic boundary where reading becomes morefunthanwork!

This book presents the first four stories about this adventurous pair of friends. Miles and Jax uses new concepts introduced in the first half of Foundations C like the phonograms IR, UR, WOR, and OO, multi-syllable words, and vowels saying a schwa sound in an unstressed syllable.

As they read, students continue to practice applying the phonogram sounds and the spelling rules they learned in Foundations A and B, building fluency with these tools as they read sentences, short paragraphs, and multi-syllable words.
