This book is a wonderful teacher resource for helping children learn to read.
The Word Mastery Primer empowers teachers to organise sounds and words into families, and to invent picture-filled stories which bring the sounds of words and phonemes to life for children learning to read. The lovely short stories allow children to practise the sound families they've learned.
This book has been used in manuscript form for teacher training in the Education Department at Antioch, New England, for many years. It's a gem of a reading primer, which has helped hundreds of teachers decide on the most memorable approach to putting sounds together with letters.
