Parents can teach their children to read--no expertise required! Parents
can take charge of their children's literacy with this updated,
easier-to-use edition of the classic jargon-free phonics guide. Too many
parents watch their children struggle with early reading skills -- and
don't know how to help. Many phonics programs are too often complicated,
overpriced, gimmicky, and filled with obscure educationalese. The
Ordinary Parent's Guide to Teaching Reading, Revised Edition cuts
through the confusion, giving parents a simple, direct, scripted guide
to teaching phonics and reading-- from short vowels through
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. A new layout makes understanding and
teaching the concepts even easier. With the accompanying Student
Book , parents will have everything they need to take their children
from the basics all the way to a fourth-grade reading level. Features a
new introduction by Dr. Susan Wise Bauer.
