CVC Reading Book 5

CVC Reading Book 5 This phonic reading book helps beginning and struggling readers sound out and read CVC words with short vowel sounds. It is the fifth book in a 16-book series that supports the systematic development of blending skills. The books feature simple stories with minimal pictures so children gain meaning from decoded text instead of pictorial cues. They incorporate a few common sight words like "a," "is," and "the." New CVC words are introduced gradually, allowing ample practice and repetition to build fluency. Teachers can use these entertaining tales about lovable farmer Tom, his family, and animals to supplement any phonics program. The books are well-suited for early readers, special needs students, ELLs/ESL learners, or anyone needing extra decoding practice. The scope and sequence of all phonics concepts is included for reference. This research-based approach has helped many struggling students gain confidence in reading. Children love following the adventures of characters like Tom, his son Sam, and their animals.
