Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Easy To Use Wordwork!
This is an easy book to implement right away. I made a recording sheet and it was easy to use the lessons to write the words from the word sorts. My kindergarten students have fun guessing what words I will give them next. It gives students experience with word families and looking for similarities in print. I'm very happy with the purchase. My only criticism is that I don't necessarily use the lessons in order beecause some of the earlier lessons ask students to sort more complicated rimes. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book!
I am currently student teaching and my cooperating teacher uses this book in her classroom. It is a great resource to have if you are teaching word families.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected
I recently switched to 2nd grade, so I bought this book to review phonics and spelling skills.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - ULTIMATE WORD FAMILY BOOK!!!!!!!!
Judy Lynch has done it again! No surprize there!

If you enjoyed her first book, you will be thrilled with this one, and if you are discovering this Reading Expert for the first time. . .congratulations!

Nothing else I have worked with has come close to providing as successful instruction for word families. . .as this book does.
Lessons are sequential. Lessons are user-friendly. Lessons will make you want to teach them (and we all know as teachers that that doesn't always ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Well laid-out book, but LACKING
This is a well-structured book. Each lesson has a plan, as well as the example for how to use the lesson. Despite its structured layout, I find I don't like the sequence of word families. The first lesson goes from -at and -an right into -an and -ash followed by -am, families which I find too complicated to introduce that early in the study of word families. Also, the letter indentification component seems to be out of place for students who are ready to learn word families. If you teach kindergarten, ... Read More
