A Progression of Skills for Quicker Independent Reading The numbered series begins with books containing only a few consonants and a vowel, and progresses to books with more advanced skills such as word endings and two-syllable words. Each book integrates skills from previous books with new skills that extend the reader's ability. This progression enables young readers to read successfully while they learn their letters and sounds rather than only after - so children read sooner and permanently internalize skills. Simply being able to read an entire book independently makes a child hungry for more knowledge so that he or she can read even more books!
