Book excerpt: Teaching Children All about Vowels (Reading Book 1) can be used to teach students the short and long vowel sounds, the four sounds of y (three of which are vowel sounds), the r-controlled vowels, vowel digraphs, and diphthongs. In addition, children will be taught the three common ways of identifying a long vowel sound (i.e., vowel sounds changed by a final e as in "ride," double vowel patterns as in "coat," and CV and CCV words as in "he" and "she"). Please note that Habakkuk Educational Materials also offers a similar book to teach students about consonants titled Teaching Children All about Consonants (Reading Book 2). Most topics are introduced with one or more colorful pages having examples of the vowel sound (such as r-controlled vowels, vowel digraphs, or diphthongs), as well as any definitions or rules that are associated with it. The colorful introduction pages are followed by reproducible worksheets that serve to reinforce the rules from the introduction pages. Some of the worksheets were designed to be used by the teacher for direct instruction purposes on the classroom screen, while others can be used for individual practice and to assess student learning. Keys to many of the worksheets and to the practice test are provided at the end of the book. The practice test is reproducible and is also available online as a computer-based test. You can access the test free of charge by visiting the website of Habakkuk Educational Materials at https://www.habakkuk.net/. The computer will notify users if an answer is correct or incorrect, and their grades will be displayed after completing a test. When the student feels confident or at the teacher's discretion, there is also a computer-based unit test they can take to test their comprehension over the book's content.
