App Description

High interest and low level reading with phonics

Sound Out Chapter Books provide students, ages 7-12, with systematic opportunities to practice decoding one-syllable and simple two-syllable words. It is organized into six phonics-based difficulty levels, three books in each level. The books feature first grade readability, easy to follow story lines, and clear illustrations with captions. All 18 books have six chapters and are about 28 pages in length.

This software reads the books aloud as text is highlighted and lets students click on any word for identification. Engaging, interactive questions at the end of each story help students truly understand what’s read. An easy-to-use management system lets you select books for each student and stores student performance results.

Levels:
One: one syllable words with short vowels.
Two: one syllable words with short and long vowels.
Three: consonant blends and digraphs.
Four: diphthongs and silent letters.
Five: compound words.
Six: two syllable words and prefixes/suffixes.
