This book is an ideal resource for any teacher who wants to include
explicit phonemic awareness instruction in an early reading program. In
one easy-to-use 8 1/2" x 11" volume, the authors present three separate
sets of phonemic awareness lessons, complete with scripted directions
and reproducible learning materials and assessment tools. Incorporating
a variety of fun and engaging activities, each set of lessons is
field-tested and research-based. Included are developmentally sequenced
lessons for the whole class and small groups, more intensive lessons for
children struggling with phonemic awareness, and class lessons on the
consonant phonemes to help children hear and process the sounds of
American English. The lesson sets can be used independently or in
combination with each other, and can easily be adapted to meet the needs
of specific classes.
