## Description

Primary Phonics is a systematic, phonics-based early reading program. This series builds essential literacy skills including phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, and comprehension. Primary Phonics is comprised of 5 sets of storybooks, coordinating workbooks, reference books, teacher s manuals, and an audio story CD for students in grades K-2. The extension More Primary Phonics allows for additional practice with two more sets of storybooks and workbook exercises.Primary Phonics also includes a comprehension component called Thinking about Mac and Tab. The comprehension workbooks follow the same phonetic patterns as the coordinating workbooks and storybooks. The 147 wh- 148 question words (who, what, why, etc.) are introduced as sight words, as students independently work through the series. Students learn to sequence, recognize story elements, use context clues, and refer to storybook pages, among other skills. Each workbook corresponds to a set of Primary Phonics storybooks 1-5. Primary Phonics Workbook 1 reviews the 17 consonants covered in the Consonant Book and then introduces short vowels in two- and three-letter words. Using a patterned series of exercises, it also introduces the sight words is, a, the, on, in, yes, no, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, and black. Exercises involve simple yes or no questions, coloring, copying words below illustrations, filling in missing words in short sentences, and unscrambling words.Storybooks Set 1 reinforces and provides practice with the skills taught in Workbook 1. More Primary Phonics Workbook M1 and the M1 storybooks provide additional practice with the skills covered in Workbook 1. Publisher: Educators Publishing Service Author: Barbara W. Makar Grades: K-2 Format: 80 pages, paperback ISBN: 9-780838-803608

Review: Great buy - I’ve bought this in correspondence with the book series. My child’s school uses the books and I bought them to supplement at home. I love the work book the repitive nature of it is effective and useful. I feel as though this has definitely had a positive benefit for my child who was struggling and is slightly difficult to keep attention. I do not write in the books so I cannot say if the pages bleed or hold up to a learning writer but they are clear easy to read/copy and flow very nicely from page to page. I’ll definitely continue to buy the work books and series levels as we progress through them.
Review: Love this set - Since schools have drifted away from phonics I love this workbook. They have the readers that go with each work book. Start with the consonant book and then get workbook 1 and 2. The consonant book allows kid to look at a picture and fill in the first sound. Gradually difficulty is increased. Book 1 works mostly on short vowels and book 2 works mostly on long vowels. After workbook 2, unless your child is stuggling with reading - probably more fun books to read. Also nice because kids can work independently on books.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great intervention tool for kindergarten
*by A***A on June 27, 2024*

I use this book towards the middle of teaching kindergarten as a supplemental resource. Great for sight word and cvc word practice. It’s excellent for teaching sentence structure too.
