The I am and I am a... Series offers a unique approach to decodable reading. Unlike traditional decodable readers, these books are not stories. Instead, each book uses a repeated sentence starter to provide focused, repetitive decoding practice. This predictable sentence structure allows beginning readers to concentrate on decoding while building confidence, accuracy and fluency.
This bundle contains 5 eBooks (6 books in total, including two alternative editions of Book 87 with either "mom" or "mum"), making it suitable for both North American and British/Commonwealth English users.
Every eBook:
uses the repeated sentence starter “I am" or "I am a...”
includes the heart words I and a
includes carefully selected graphemes for focused decoding practice
includes capital letters where specified
