Workbooks and Storybooks
Primary Phonics is a systematic, phonics-based early reading program.
This series builds essential literacy skills including phonemic awareness,
phonics, fluency, and comprehension. Primary Phonics is comprised of 5
sets of storybooks, coordinating workbooks, reference books, teachers
manuals, and an audio story CD for students in grades K2. The extension More
Primary Phonics allows for additional practice with two more sets of
storybooks and workbook exercises.
Primary Phonics also includes a comprehension component called Thinking
about Mac and Tab. The comprehension workbooks follow the same phonetic
patterns as the coordinating workbooks and storybooks. The wh- question
words (who, what, why, etc.) are introduces as sight words as students
independently work through the series. Students learn to sequence, recognize
story elements, use context clues, and refer to storybook pages, among other
skills. Each workbook corresponds to a set of Primary Phonics storybooks
15.
The program accommodates all students, allowing them to work at their own pace,
and includes many opportunities for reteaching and reinforcement. Engaging,
high-interest themes motivate students and frequent review provides additional
support. This complete, proven series gives students a sense of accomplishment
as they read storybooks on their own from the very beginning of instruction.
