Description

Created by a teacher, Bob Books have been helping children learn to read for more than fifty years! This phonics-based box set helps developing readers gently take the next step toward more complex stories. Bob Books Word Families helps children progress gently beyond the very basics of learning to read. The books use mostly short vowels and plenty of repetition, but also introduce a few consonant blends and word endings such as -ed , along with longer words and sentences. The use of word families makes these longer stories more manageable for early readers, and the silly content keeps kids coming back for more! Inside the box you'll find: 8 small, hilarious, easy-to-read books: 16 pages each, 25-42 unique words per book, sized perfectly for little hands - 2 activity books to support the stories - A parent guide with tips for helping your child learn to read Each book includes: Word and sound repetition, which helps children decode the text - Use of word families (mop, flop; big, bigger) - Slightly longer sentences than previous sets (The frogs went under a log.) - A "review before reading" section at the front of each book - A word list at the back of each book - Friendly, simple illustrations that add fun and do not distract from the words Guided Reading Levels: D, E, F | Lexile Measure: 70L - 310L | Bob Books Level: Stage 3 Ages: 4-6 | Grade Levels: PreK, Kindergarten Bob Books’ phonics-based method aligns with the body of research known as the Science of Reading, which proves that systematic phonics instruction is crucial to children’s reading success.

Your child will soon join the millions of happy kids who say, “I read the whole book!”® "Forget Dick and Jane. Your beginning reader needs Bob Books® to succeed." --cpamomva.blogspot.com "Tiny enough to sneak in a very full diaper bag, we are enjoying them here, there, and everywhere." -- needsnewbatteries.blogspot.com "They are a wonderful addition to a home library, school library, or a homeschool library. I love the smiles on my daughters' faces when they have succeeded in reading a book--that's priceless!" -- ourgaggleofgirls.com "Bob Books® made our children into avid readers. Best investment I ever made." -- The Lewiston Tribune You've prepared your child for reading - refrigerator magnets down low and easy to reach; letter sounds taught. Your child can proudly spell his or her name. Perhaps he can identify the "stop" and "open" signs as you drive in your car. He or she is ready for the next step into reading. Inside the colorful box, the bright red cover beckons. On the first page, the letters: M - a - t. Your child says the sounds: mmmmm, aaa, ttt. Then, faster: "Mat." Your youngster has read his first word! "Sam", "sat" and "on" complete the vocabulary, and suddenly your child can say, "I read the whole book!"® That is the magic of Bob Books®. After 13 years of teaching 3, 4 and 5-year-olds, watching a child make that giant first step into reading still thrills me. The pride in their eyes, their triumphant grasp of a difficult concept, and opening their world to the excitement of books and reading, has brought me many years of satisfaction. Bob Books® were specifically designed to facilitate that ah-ha moment, when letters first turn into words. By slowly introducing new letter sounds, using consistency and repetition, and stories that fit short attention spans, your child will quickly find his or her own ah-ha moment. We wish your young learner much success and happiness as he or she enters the great adventure of reading. After teaching kindergarten for thirteen years, master teacher Bobby Lynn Maslen developed the Bob Books to satisfy her students' need for fun and effective reading materials. 439845092
