Summary | "Phonics instruction shouldn't end when students can decode short words. From an early age, they also need to be able to decode big words--words with multiple syllables (sound units) and morphemes (meaning units)--to read proficiently. The key is to teach them systematically and explicitly, in developmentally appropriate ways. That's where this book comes in. Mesmer shares essential background on how language "works," provides a K-5 scope and sequence to guide practice, and offers abundant research-backed strategies to put into action immediately."--Back cover. |
