Reinforce your child's systematic phonics instruction with Reading Basics Book 3. A part of the LIFEPAC^® 1st Grade Language Arts curriculum, this reader features easy-to-read stories that utilize 1- and 2-syllable words. As stories increase in length and difficulty, your child will become a more fluent reader. The use of vowel digraphs, diphthongs, long-vowel words, and r-controlled vowels are just a few of the phonics concepts introduced in this popular AOP curriculum.

Based on a systematic phonics approach, Oats Are for Goats, the third in a series of five readers, contains 24 high-interest stories sure to please any young reader. Since drilling of high-frequency sight words helps to increase fluency, this reader includes a list of instant words used within the stories. While this reader can be used independently, teaching instructions for incorporation into the LIFEPAC^® 1st Grade Language Arts homeschool program are detailed within the LIFEPAC^® 1st Grade Language Arts Teacher's Guides. Comprehension questions are also available in the Reading Basics Reader Study Guide.
