Description:

Expanding on the foundation sets that have made Bob Books such a success, My First Bob Books: Pre-Reading Skills is a introducing Bob Books' proven teaching tools to children who aren't quite ready for Bob Books Set 1.

My First Bob Books: Pre-Reading Skills offer children and their parents simple and satisfying tools that build an important foundation for reading readiness. Sally the Circle and her friends introduce important skills that prepare your child for reading. Your youngsters will never know that they're learning as they follow the adventures of Sally, Seth and Tanner - but you will.

My First Bob Books: Pre-Reading Skills introduces these important pre-literacy skills in a story format:

  • Identifying basic shapes in preparation for letter recognition
  • Sorting, classifying and symbol identification to build important problem-solving skills
  • Recognizing simple patterns to create awareness of letter groups and sight words
  • Sequencing to strengthen the ability to predict how stories flow

Inside the box you'll find:

  • 12 books for you to read to your child, 12 pages each
  • Four pre-reading skills
  • Literacy games and teaching hints on the inside of each book cover

    About Bob Books
    Bob Books
     is a true first reader series, designed to make helping children learn to read simple and straightforward. The clean layout, short words, and simple phonics make learning to read a fun and natural step for a child that knows the alphabet. Companion workbooks extend children's reading journey by allowing them to practice the skills learned in the books.

    Bob Books is designed to give young children the tools to cross from learning letters to reading words. The award-winning beginning reader book sets start slowly and progress from books with three letter words, to books with more than one sentence per page. By meeting children at the right level, parents are often amazed at how quickly their child is able to sound out words when reading their first Bob Book.

    Bob Books covers four reading stages...

    • Reading Readiness (Pre-Readings): Skills Recognize shapes, patterns, and other pre-reading skills
    • Stage 1: Starting to Read From learning the alphabet to sounding out your first words
    • Stage 2: Emerging Readers Sentences become longer and sight words are introduced
    • Stage 3: Developing Readers Words and sentences become longer, and new rules are introduced
