Beschreibung

DOG ON A LOG Get Ready! Books are easy for parents to use, fun for kids, and follow the science of learning to read. Information on downloading printable games, flashcards, and other materials is available in each book. With so many complementary printables, this series was created to be economical for families and teachers. All DOG ON A LOG Books follow a systematic, Orton-Gillingham/systematic phonics-based sequence. Trying to find a way to teach your child to read, whether you are supplementing what your child is being taught in school or as a homeschooling family, can feel overwhelming. DOG ON A LOG Get Ready! Books are written by a mom who wants to try and eliminate some of those feelings for other parents. These parent-friendly books will guide you along the path of teaching reading. DOG ON A LOG Get Ready! Books give simple activities you can do with your child. Once you understand the skills that your child needs to learn, you may wish to add additional activities. Resources are suggested that will help you find additional free or low-cost activities you can personalize to your child. Book 1: "Before the Squiggle Code (A Roadmap to Reading)" Starts at the very beginning of the learning to read process: it helps the learner hear the smallest sounds in words. Relevant excerpts from "Teaching a Struggling Reader: One Mom's Experience with Dyslexia" are also included to help parents with children who are struggling to read. Book 2: "The Squiggle Code (Letters Make Words)" Helps the learner discover that each sound has a letter or letters and when the letters are put together, they make words. This is when reading begins. Book 3: "Kids' Squiggles (Letters Make Words)" The seven sound-out stories from "The Squiggle Code" in a child-friendly format with pictures and less words per page. Each story adds a new group of letters. Get Ready! Readers 1 to 7 (Can be used instead of "Kids' Squiggles") Each of these seven readers includes just one story from "Kids' Squiggles" along with traceable letters and sound-out content from "The Squiggle Code." DOG ON A LOG Get Ready! Books help teach the important skills of phonological and phonemic awareness. DOG ON A LOG Get Ready! Books were previously known as DOG ON A LOG Pup Books

My child needed an ongoing supply of systematic phonics books that use an Orton-Gillingham approach. Finding such books proved to be a nearly impossible task so I decided to write them myself. I want to share our books with new readers and their families. I also want to make them affordable. All books are available in both digital and paper editions. The most cost-effective version is a digital collection of five same-step books. The paperback version of the five book collections is a bit more, but is still a lot less expensive than buying the individual paper books. Due to production costs, the individual paperbacks are the most expensive way to buy these books. However, these books give kids a chance to hold a book and say, "I read this WHOLE book." Since every family will have different needs and different budgets, I am making the books available in multiple formats. All the paperbacks have black and white pictures to keep prices down. The digital books all have color pictures. As our reading journey progresses I will continue to write books for my daughter and to share them with other families. I was not going to include artwork because that is not my talent. However, my daughter was adamant she wanted her books to include pictures. I may not be able to draw, but I can photoshop. I thoroughly enjoy adapting public domain images to each story. I am grateful to the artists who have made their images available for public domain uses. These sweet images give my daughter a break when the reading is challenging. I hope other new readers will be entertained by these stories as they practice, and master, each step of their reading journey.
