  • Character-building truths. As your students read stories about Jay and his pup Ruff, or Travis and his friend Jen, they will learn the value of Christian character traits such as friendship, gratitude, and forgiveness.
  • Focus on phonics.  Phonics rules and special sounds are placed throughout the book. Students have an opportunity to practice challenging words in the “Words to Watch For” box at the beginning of each story. Designed to be read in conjunction with corresponding pages of Handbook for Reading.  Students can approach the story feeling confident and prepared as they learn to read step by step.
  • Literary terms. Introduction to literary parts of a story. Literary terms such as the title, author, character, and main character are highlighted throughout.
  • Creative Writing.  Your students can celebrate their favorite character in the back of the book for creative writing and creative drawing.  These activities enhance and assess comprehension of story book characters.
  • Reading comprehension and review. Know that your students understand! Each story is followed by an exercise such as matching sentences with pictures, reading words or phrases from the story, or marking true statements about what happened in the story. Other comprehension and discussion questions are included in the Teacher Edition (sold separately).
