Review:

"K-3 teachers will find this book very appealing. Based on current research and commonsense experience, the book is full of effective strategies that are easy to use!"

Author: Jeanne Gren, First-Grade Teacher Published On: 2006-05-17

"This book provides interesting and informative background knowledge about phonics instruction. The author defines terms, discusses the difficulties practitioners may encounter, provides strategies and suggestions for teaching, and presents numerous easy-to-use reference charts."

Author: Jane Ching Fung, First-Grade Teacher Published On: 2006-05-17

"The author provides background information for beginning teachers and a quick reference for experienced teachers. I have thicker, bulkier books that provide phonics instruction but this book is user-friendly and easy to manage."
