Fun Phonics: a Guidebook for Reading Sharon Nelson

A guidebook for reading teachers, tutors, and students that strips away the density of most reading texts, presenting 18 easy-to-understand phonics lessons progressing from simple to more difficult English words. Each lesson describes a phonics concept, provides examples, and gives proper English usage. Presented as a series of lesson plans, the guidebook allows the instructor or tutor to teach directly from the guidebook, or use it to supplement another text. The simple, straightforward presentation is appropriate for elementary education, remedial instruction, or adult literacy classes. Lessons progress in difficulty, so that the student can read simple words after the first two lessons. The final chapters include a basic writing guide and an index of words for phonics practice.
