Pages 1 to 4 are the books, one sheet each: two books with -ed and -ing endings (a story and a book about ducks), then two stories with two-syllable words. Each uses the patterns taught by then and sight words only. Page 5 is a blank book for children to make their own. Page 6 shows how to fold a book, and page 7 is a test sheet with each page's number.
Before reading, cover the ending of a word with a finger, read the base word, then read it with the ending. For two-syllable words, read each part and then put them together: rab, bit, rabbit. After reading, have children draw the last page.
Fold a book together and read it twice: once slowly, sounding out, and once smoothly, like talking.
Four little books to print and fold, for words with -ed and -ing endings and two-syllable words like rabbit and picnic, with every word one a child can sound out or knows by sight. Children read each book, find its author and illustrator, and finish it by drawing the last page.
