Reinforcing the Science of Reading in Library Programming
|
|
|
TeachingBooks has notably enhanced our Early Literacy Toolkit—aligning it to the foundational elements of the Scarborough Reading Rope.1 With this multi-faceted, instructional approach, you can:
- Engage with evidence-based literacy strands
- Use the Scarborough Reading Rope to infuse language comprehension and word recognition with rich literature.
- Enrich phonological awareness focus
- Identify popular picture books by more than two dozen phonological classifications, including vowel sounds, blends, alliteration, and rhyming.
- Reinforce instruction with rich literature
- Browse thousands of resources for popular picture books in your classroom or library.
- Add printables and activities
- Extend decoding, phonemic awareness, and sight recognition skills with printables and extension activities.
TeachingBooks' Early Literacy Toolkit is rich with opportunities to build background knowledge, expand vocabulary, and enhance language comprehension—all while nourishing the joy of reading.
And as always, let us know how you are using these resources in your own instruction!
Our best,
The TeachingBooks Team
