Annotation: For reading tutors, homeschoolers, and teachers, this book provides 60 ready-to-use units of phonics activities to help beginning readers of all ages learn the short vowels, long vowels, irregular vowel combinations, diphthongs, and r-controlled vowel sounds in words. Learning these vowel sounds usually follows learning the sound associations for the constant letters.

The activities are printed in a full-page format for easy use and are organized into two sections. Part One, "Long and Short Vowels," includes 151 activity pages. Part Two, "irregular Vowel Combinations, Diphthongs, and R-Controlled Vowels," includes 100 activity pages.

Each of the 60 phonics units features the following components: a phonogram or phonograms and a list of words constructed from the phonogram to be read aloud in order to establish the letter-sound relationshipan exercise to reinforce this skill in which the learner selects the one word that makes sense in each sentencea trace-say-and-copy page with space for writing the wordsactivities directly related to the words in that unit plus words from prior units to provide review and reinforcement. These includes: "reaading comprehension, decoding, encoding, rhyming words, learning new vocabulary words, alphabetizing, learning to use long and short diacritical marks, making a word from scrambled letter, making a compound word from two separate words, distinguishing the spelling and meaning of homonyms, figure-ground discrimination"a checklist of words in alphabetical order to provide further practice in word recognition and a means of evaluating the learner's progress

Other special helps in this book include additional strategies for making the processof learning to read easier and more enjoyable... a glossary of phonics... and lists of Vocabulary and Sight Words used for the activities in Parts One and Two.
