The Reading Teacher's Book of Lists

Absolutely necessary for anyone who teches reading and phonics to children of any age. This book will give a list of words that contain any phonic combination in the English Language. I highly suggest every teacher own this book. Give them as gifts to new teachers joining your school. Nothing will be appreciated more by any teacher.

The book for every elementary teacher!

As an elementary ed student (I student teach next semester) this book is everything that I have been looking for to help me be a better reading/language arts teacher. I love this book! I liked it so much I took it to school and shared it with my fellow elementary ed students and instructor, and they ALL bought the book too! This is a must-have for any elementary teacher. You won't be sorry.

Homeschooling Help

If you homeschool, this collection of lists will take you from K-6 and is a great companion to any curriculum you use. Highlights for me were the phonics example words (perfect spelling lists), story starters and enrichment activities, as well as the greek and latin root words and the lists of suffixes and prefixes. There is so much useful information here, even your children will pick it up and browse through for fun.

A must for every elementary school teacher. Great resource!

During my 18 years of teaching, (everything from Developmental Kindergarten to Freshman Remedial English), this was the most valuable resource book I had. I was able to use this book in any grade level I taught. Great resource book. A must for your collection!!!

A wonderful addition to any teacher's library....a must have

As a newly certified teacher I have accumulated quite a few books on education. This book is a must have for any teacher...experienced or new. It is divided up into many sections which makes referencing easy. It includes any and all information you need to make lesson planning cohesive and reliable. From onomatopeia to vowel sounds, I highly recommend this book. It is worth every penny!!!
