In the last post<\/a>, I talked about Stories For Young Readers<\/em> from Kinney Brothers Publishing and how to purchase the series for your classes.  In this post, I’ll focus on our Phonics & Spelling<\/em> series.  I’ll provide links for purchasing and recommended support materials for each text to help you plan for new classes.

For many teachers, a solid phonics program is the cornerstone of their pre-K thru elementary classes. Focused phonics lessons and phonemic awareness improve pronunciation, listening comprehension, and give students the confidence to read and understand English. The Kinney Brothers Publishing five-book Phonics &Spelling series<\/a> is designed to teach kids the fundamental sounds and spelling of English in a multi-year, step-by-step ESL program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Phonics & Spelling<\/a><\/em> series is also published by Independent Publishers International (I.P.I.<\/a>) in Japan and available with a special discount for overseas customers through David Paul’s ETJ Book Service<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A to Z<\/em><\/a> is the first step to introducing very young ESL students to the ABCs and phonics. If your kids are just learning to hold a pencil, this is the perfect primer.  Children love coloring the large images and build dexterity writing the upper and lower-case letters. Included are easy dot-to-dot coloring pages, mazes, and matching exercises.  Check out the preview<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABC & Phonics, Book 1<\/em><\/a> lays the groundwork for phonetic based learning and focuses on writing and identifying upper and lower case ABCs.  With basic writing, matching, and ordering exercises, teachers can readily assess student progress.  The alphabet is broken down into four sections, a-f, g-l, m-r and s-z with a review for each section.  Click here<\/a> for support materials that include flashcards, charts, games, and activities that make learning the ABCs fun!  You can download a preview<\/a> for this textbook here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step by step, students also learn how to read and write a simple self-introduction.  The exercises progress in an easy-to-teach, easy-to-comprehend approach adaptable to any program. Included are review pages, puzzles, games, and reading exercises that students find challenging and fun!  Be sure to check out the preview<\/a> here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
