EDITORIAL REVIEW

Phonemic awareness is the first step in any child's journey to literacy, and more than 25% of all children don't master it by third grade. Specifically targeting phonemic awareness, this program helps young children learn to distinguish the individual sounds that make up words and affect their meanings. With the unique screening method that accommodates up to 15 children at a time, educators can gauge the general skill level of the class and identify children who may need additional testing. And teachers can choose from a range of activities to use with the whole class-from simple listening games to more advanced sound manipulation exercises such as rhyming, alliteration, and segmentation.

It has everything teachers need:

teaching objectives
lesson plans and sample scripts
activity adaptations
troubleshooting guidelines
suggested kindergarten and first-grade schedules
an appendix of advanced language games
informal, large group screening tests
guidelines for interpreting screening test results
recommendations for further assessment

The perfect complement to any school's language curriculum, this program takes only 15-20 minutes a day.

not worth it

I just bought this book and don't recommend it, it has very simple activities with very little explanation about them, this kind of activities you can easily think of them even my grandma has better ideas that the ones that come on this book I feel disappointed about this book I had to give a star to this book even it does not deserve it.

A must have!

I purchased this book on the recommendation of an Orton-Gillingham class I took. It has been a great resource for the beginning readers I tutor. The activities are fun and take very little prep for the teacher. I recommend this book for anyone looking to boost phonemic awareness, a critical skill for reading!

Great Resource

As a parent I needed something to assist my child and found this book to be great.

It is setup for class room setting but with a little improvision here and there works great.

Ready to use lessons

The lesson plans are all right there to get started teaching phonemic awareness in a classroom or small group. Sections are divided up into specific skills. The research included in the book makes it easy to explain to parents why these are improtant skills to teach. Includes a material list and assessments as well. A "must have" for pre-kindergarten through first grade teachers.

bought this for my daughter-in-law for her speech pathology degree. It was suggested by her instructors.
It came in a timely manner, no complaints
