This new series meets the constant need for texts that provide adequate meaning and structure for inexperienced readers while helping them learn words and initial letter sound associations. Written by Maine educators and illustrated with black-and-white photographs, each of the 4 series provides ample opportunity for kindergarten and first-grade students to grasp and practice the earliest concepts of reading.
Important features include stories about experiences universal to young children and the repetitive use of sentence structures that contain high-frequency words. These features ensure that children have meaningful reading experiences to help guide them to independent reading. Spacing between words is precise - the right size for students to follow.
Series 1 of the Little Books for Early Readers contains 30 different titles covering 3 levels. Level 1A: one line of text; no change in structure. Level 1B: one line of text; one change in structure, and Level 2: 2 lines of text; 1 change in structure.
