What’s an emergent reader book? An emergent reader book is a little book, sometimes called “a mini book” that emergent readers use as they are just beginning to learn the conventions of print. Emergent readers books typically have text that is repetitive to help young children learn new words and see patterns within words.

Some ways you can use this emergent reader with your students:

Morning Work: Have the books printed and ready for students. For morning work students can read the book three times quietly to themselves. Then, have students trace the words. Last, let students color the images in the book.

Readers Workshop: Similar to the process of using the book for morning work, students can read the book three times to themselves during independent reading. These are great books for students to keep in their book boxes.

Early Finishers: If a student finishes their classwork early, they can grab a printed emergent reader to read to themselves, trace the words, and color. If you do this, be sure to eventually give all students the option to have the same emergent readers in their book box.

Send Home: Familiarize students with the process of reading the words, tracing the words, and lastly coloring the book. Then, allow them to take emergent reader books home to use as learning resources outside of school. This is a great option for students that might not have grade level texts available for reading outside of school. Families will appreciate having these extra learning resources at home as it adds to their ability to support what their students are learning in school at home.
