This book teaches students to learn to read the individual symbols of
the alphabet and phonetic alphabet first. Next, it teaches them to focus
on the vowel sounds as they read the alphabetic and phonetic stories out
loud. To read well, they must blend sounds, syllables, and words into
sentences. This means that students must learn to decode and read words
sound-by-sound and syllable-by-syllable. To do that, they must practice
reading both the alphabetic and phonetic spelling of each word before
voicing it.
