Description
The written code of the English language is a phonetic code, meaning that symbols are used to represent sounds. Put another way, letters are pictures of sounds. For example, the ‘c’ in cat is a picture of the /k/ sound. Sometimes, two or more letters form a single sound picture. For example, the ‘oe’ in home is a picture of the /oe/ sound.
The Step-by-Step Reader series introduces sound pictures in steps. Did the Cat Sit?, book 1 of the series, introduces the sound pictures a, c, d, f, i, m, n, o, p, s, and t, and the high frequency word ‘the’.
Like all books in the Step-by-Step Readers series, this book features an easy-to-read font and bright pictures that are meant to engage young readers. This book is purposefully short, only twelve pages in length, and includes one brief sentence per page, to ensure that the young reader does not tire before finishing it.
