Next they begin to understand that letters make sounds and form words. This is the progression of phonological awareness. Thus, as early as the year 2000, many reputable collegial bodies have unanimously agreed that phonics is the best approach to early reading. This first volume of 21st Century Teachers’ Tales Phonics in Reading for Beginners, a compilation of short vowels sound aims to provide early knowledge givers a tool to use for their loved ones. By knowledge giver, we mean teachers, mothers, nannies, relatives OR even volunteers who spend time with kids. What better way to care for and bond with kids than by teaching them how fo read. 21st Century Teachers’ Tales are short stories with guides that are easy to understand that can turn anyone, with enough love and care into a knowledge giver. Happy Teaching! Happy Reading!Short A- sound Sam the Cat and Jan the Rat. Short E - sound Ben and His Red Hen Short I - sound Zid the Kid and the Big Wig . Mip and Nip in the Tin Bin....
