This fast-paced program progresses quickly from decoding words phonetically to preparing students for the last reader which is a complete narrative. Students will practice reading aloud, be slowly introduced to silent reading, and engage in reading comprehension activities. Each reader is designed in large font with specific goals, and becomes progressively more challenging. Reading skills also incorporate the Abeka® Phonics Charts 6-8 (these charts are included in the readers and the teaching material. Readers progress in this order: Fun with Friends; Quests for Adventure; Across the Meadow; Wonders of Imagination; Through the Skies; Growing Up in Early America; Growing Up Around the World; Growing Up Where Jesus Lived; All Kinds of Animals; and My New Name (introduces students to a continuing story and is a prequel to My New Song—used in Abeka Grade 3 Reading,).
