How It Works
-
1
Align with Phonemic Awareness
Every title is specifically mapped to the Heggerty Kindergarten Phonemic Awareness curriculum and Bridge to Reading. This allows you to seamlessly transition students from oral sound manipulation to print application.
-

Follow a Systematic Path
Introduce books in a deliberate sequence. Students begin with short vowel CVC words and digraphs and move toward consonant blends and CVCe patterns, ensuring they only encounter sounds they have been explicitly taught.
-
3
Support Small Group Instruction
With six copies of every title, this classroom set is designed for small-group intervention and guided reading. A balanced mix of fiction and nonfiction builds both decoding fluency and essential background knowledge.
