Teaching phonics skills is a delight with these short stories in verse. Engage beginning readers with tales like "A Snake at the Bake Sale" and "Mike's Call to Ike." Throughout each story, a specific long vowel sound is emphasized many times to boost auditory and visual discrimination skills. As the verse is read aloud, children must listen carefully and follow along on their pages. To complete the activity, students identify the specific vowel sound used in each line, then count and record the number of examples at the bottom of the page. Follow-up exercises reinforce certain decoding skills as well as generalizations about long vowel sounds, including "y" functioning as a vowel. Students can also make booklets to keep for review and practice. The author also provides lesson variations to make expanded use of the stories and exercises.Long Vowel Sounds, with ISBN 9780742402737 and ISBN 0742402738.
