Usborne's Very First Reading Program

This program is based on synthetic phonics which is often used when children are learning to read. By using phonics and teaching sight words, it offers a good progression for learning vocabulary words.

Very First Reading Program offers you:

- Fifteen Books in this attractive slipcase box set
-A Parents' Guide to help your children to read
- Notes for teachers
- Downloadable activities and puzzles for each book

Earned the 2010 Teachers' Choice for the Family

It is recommended that you take about a month to work through each book. Focus on teaching the words from that book before moving on to the next book in the series.

My girls enjoyed this series of books! They enjoy reading the books together. My first graders likes to read the parent's page. Then, my younger daughter reads her page with the bold text.

Please see below for all the Very First Reading Books.

I have included a picture of each book.

This reading program recommends that your children work through the series in sequential order, starting with book one, then book two, book three and so on.

The beginning of the series, books one through seven, offers an interactive approach to reading. The adult and child take turns reading passages with the child's part becoming more substantial and challenging in each book.

As you work through the series, you will be delighted to see your children's confidence grow as they learn to read. Books eight through fifteen allow the children to read each complete story by themselves.

Teaching with the Very First Reading:

Did you know the English language offers 26 letters with 44 sounds? So confusing!!!

Very First Reading allows children to build and develop their vocabulary at a steady pace. It is backed by phonics research and supports reading programs presently in use at schools. Currently the UK is offering a program called letters and sounds which offers promising results. As a result many other reading programs are being developed around the world to support this program. Very First Reading implements this concept with exciting stories that each include an interactive reading program with an adult.

Very First Reading Supports the US Government Policy

The Usborne Books Very First Reading Program supports teaching children reading, which is required by the Reading First initiative and implemented by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2002.

As a parent, I feel not only will we be able to give our children the gift of literacy but we will have that special bond with our child as we enjoy reading our stories and books together.
