 How To Use This Book
1. There are three workbooks for the Phonics Patterns And Stories books.
The first workbook covers the patterns introduced in Book 1. The second
workbook covers the patterns taught in Books 2-5. The third workbook
covers the patterns taught in Books 6-8.
2. The first workbook uses a number of different types of pages, providing
extra practice to get beginning readers off to a strong start. These pages
include picture/word matching, writing new words, word sorts, picture/
sentence matching, fill in the blank exercises, and decoding tests.
3. The second and third workbooks include only picture/word matching and
writing new words pages. You may want to assign additional activities
for each set of words. Possibilities include: write sentences with some of
the words, write a story using as many words as possible, copy and illus-
trate selected words, write words in alphabetical order, write the defini-
tion for one or more of the words, underline the nouns and circle the
verbs, for multi-syllable words divide between the syllables.
4. The phonics patterns in each workbook are covered in the same sequence
as the Phonics Patterns And Stories books. Students should be sure to
use their best handwriting.
5. The small pictures on the word sort pages in Workbook 1 are from A
Sound Story, available as a separate book, with a smaller version of the
same story in the Phonics Patterns And Stories books. Each picture
represents a sound. Read the story aloud to the students. Make sure they
are familiar with each sound picture and the sound it represents. The pic-
tures on the word sort pages will help the students remember the sound
for each new letter pattern and any contrasting pattern on that page.
6. Some of the words in this workbook may be new to students. Be sure to
explain the meaning of any unknown words.
4. Congratulate the student on taking a big step towards becoming an inde-
pendent reader and writer.

In these words, the a says a/father (it has the o/ox sound), even when it is at the end of the syllable. Notice that some of
the words end with a/panda; the _a sound like u/up. In taco, the o has the long o sound since its at the end of a syllable.
Remember that an arrow below a vowel tells you to slide past the vowel without pronouncing it. Draw a line from each
word to the matching picture.

These words all end with o. Since o is at the end of a syllable, it has he long o sound (o/ocean). Look carefully at the first syllable
of each word. If the vowel is followed by a consonant, it has the short vowel sound. If the vowel is at the end of the syllable, it has
the long vowel sound. Draw a line from each word to the matching picture.
