Book 5, however, challenges readers to acquire more sophisticated vocabulary and comprehend more complex texts. All lesson stories are factual and true, based on informational texts about science, history, significant people, and unusual events. The importance of each lesson is twofold- students are practicing reading skills while also learning history, science, and culture! Readers who complete Book 5 will have demonstrated reading fluency in decoding specific vocabulary found in informational text, been able to comprehend these sophisticated texts meant for instruction, and skillfully analyzed their complex text structures. Comprehension skills for making inferences, drawing conclusions, and making predictions are practiced. Readers become deeper thinkers as they continue to evaluate the author’s purpose or suggestions, judge the intention of the text, and form an opinion of its importance to self and others
Upon completion of the Short Vowels Series, followed by the Long Vowels Series, readers will have a deeper understanding and appreciation of the value of reading, writing, and understanding English – the language most spoken around the world.
