How are Half-Pint Readers unique from other phonics programs ?
Half -Pint Readers are thematic, easy to decode and fun to read! Each set of six books centers on a particular theme. The stories have funny little plots that hold the child’s interest. Children can hardly wait to see where the Half-Pint characters will visit next! Each set of six books introduces a few new skills and builds upon the skills learned in previous books. For easy reference, new decodable words and sight words are listed on the title page of each book. Half-Pint Readers are affordable. Unlike other phonics programs that cost hundreds of dollars, Half-Pint Readers offer more books for a lot less! And more books equals more reading! Half-Pint Readers were created by a Kindergarten teacher for her students to read while they learned the letter-sounds through phonemic awareness and phonics instruction. Half -Pint Readers are proven to be effective and motivating for helping children learn to read.
