Hands-on phonemic awareness fun based on favorite books

This book enables you to teach phonemic awareness in a fun, interactive, hands-on way without taking a lot of extra time out of your curriculum. The "sound boards" are based on books we all read to our kids including: Where The Wild Things Are, The Snowy Day, Miss Nelson Is Missing, If You Give A Mouse A Cookie, The Paper Bag Princess, Curious George, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Mrs. Wishy-Washy, Brown Bear, Brown Bear etc. After enjoying the read-aloud or shared reading, the class works with the sound board in a game-like way to practice sound matching with rhyming words, beginning sounds, ending sounds, vowel sounds, and more. The boards are adaptable to use with small groups or individuals of varying needs. They're great to use with older kids who need phonemic awareness practice, too. Everything you need is included in this book--ready-made, ready for you to copy and use. Experience phonemic awareness success with this book!

Lessons Made Easy and Fun

As a teacher of twenty six years, I am excited and impressed by Ms. Wagstaff's book on phonemic awareness. Lessons using her sound boards are easy, fun and provide immediate feedback. Teachers are able to assess and remediate quickly any student errors. Detailed directions and parent and volunteer letters help to make reinforcement an easy task. This is truly a book for every busy reading teacher, since it's concise, organized, informative and easy to use. I think it will change the way teachers teach. Parents will also enjoy sharing these activities with their child, since many of these books are on childrens' bookshelves or readily available. Most of all, this book is fun for everyone!!

Irrestible Sound-Matching Sheets and Lessons

This Book is life saver and time saver for me. I'm always looking for ways that I can focus on Phonemic Awareness that is fun and enjoyable. I teach Kindergarten, so this is something that we do everyday. The titles used in this book are ones that I had already in my books that I had aquired through the years. They are ones that my students really like. The sound-matching sheets give the children the hook they need to remember the sounds that are being used. Janiel has saved hours of time giving you beginning sounds, endings sound, rhyming, consonants and vowel sounds. This book is a must to help the children focus on phonemic awarenes.
