Pages 1 to 4 are the books, one sheet each: two vowel team books (ai and ay, then ee, ea and oa) and two r-controlled books (ar, then er, ir and ur). 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.
Read the pattern words on the back cover first and sort them by spelling. After reading, ask what the book taught or what happened, and have children draw the last page. The two books about real animals pair well with a nonfiction read-aloud on the same animal.
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 the vowel teams ai, ay, ee, ea and oa and the r-controlled vowels ar, er, ir, or and ur, 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.
