About the Reading Puzzle SeriesIn her best-selling book Teach Them
All To Read, Elaine McEwan provides a great discussion of the most
current reading research regarding how students learn to read so
educators can make informed decisions about instruction. Research
about reading has given us insight into the skills on which we need
to focus our efforts to improve reading and comprehension. Now we
can identify the skills that require reinforcement and intervene
with explicit, thoughtful instruction. The activities in The
Reading Puzzle series will help the teacher accomplish this
goal.The Reading Puzzle series provides instructional tools
teachers can use immediately as part of the reading curriculum. The
Reading Puzzle series contains 10 books for Kindergarten through
Grade 8 centered on the skills identified by the National Reading
Panel as critical to reading success. Each of these books in the
series helps unlock one piece of the reading puzzle and contains
standards-based, ready-to-use activities that can be used to
supplement any reading program.Phonemic Awareness, Grades K-3

world of word analysis! This resource focuses on two areas of
learning: essential linguistic patterns (the variations in how
letters are pronounced), and essential morphographs (variations of
what letters or groups of letters mean, such as prefixes, roots,
and suffixes).The goal of the 'Linguistics' section of this book is
to assist students in becoming fluent decoders. It will make them
aware of patterns they can rely on to aid their decoding speed.
You, the teacher, are a critical and vital part of the Linguistics
section of this activity book. All of the activities in this
section have an oral component. Many activities are geared for
whole-class participation and are designed to help students
internalize spelling patterns and decode words automatically. The
goal of the 'Morphology' section of this book is to hone students'
word-analysis skills. Morphology is the branch of linguistics that
focuses on word structure and the changes in forms of words. This
resource includes practice with root words, prefixes, and suffixes.
Students will participate in both written and interactive
activities to help them decipher unfamiliar words once they have
memorized the meanings of roots, prefixes, and suffixes. Students
will discover what a powerful tool word analysis can be!
