Bob Books Set 2-Advancing Beginners Review
User Submitted Bob Books Set 2-Advancing Beginners ReviewsJune 15, 2008 excellent encouragement for beginning readers The Bob book series are excellent for encouraging very beginning readers. Each page has only a few words and kids who are just beginning to sound out and read the stories. This makes them want to keep learning. The only thing to watch out for is kids sometimes memorize the books if they read only one or two over and over so you need to mix them up to have them actually read the books. I've been using these with my 4 and 5 year olds and they both love them. April 25, 2008 Two similar sets I liked this set but unfortunatly it contained many of the same books as the first set, which we already have. I think they could have done it a little differently. If I had it to do over again I would have either skipped this set or started off with this one and skipped the first one. April 19, 2008 Training the Brain I am a Special Education teacher. I help children with learning disabilities (K-5) learn to read. I don't think there are words for how highly I want to reccommend these books to parents and other educators. These books are PHONICS based and they are systematic and sequential. They help train a child's brain to see the patterns in the english language. Learning these patterns is how children learn to read. Other reviews have slammed these books for being boring and low interest. Are they the most exciting and engaging books ever? No, not really. Will they help your child/student learn to read? YES, they will. And the stories have enough content that I am able to monitor comprehension with questions such as "Who was this story about?", "Why did the fox try to hide when he saw the hen?", and "How do you think the animals felt when they saw the fox?". But most importantly, it is just such a thrill to see that expression of astonished pride on the child's face when they finish reading the book to you all by themselves. It's that bewildered sense of accomplishment that makes my students willing to take on new challenges and continue improving their reading skills. April 16, 2008 My little reader I am amazed at how these books have helped my 4.5 year old son take off with his reading. He eats these books up, and I have taken to letting him read one in bed at night with a little book light to encourage his reading. He even asks about the punctuation marks and what they mean! By the time he hits kindergarten I think he will be through the whole set! March 29, 2008 fantastic These books have really helped my 5yo daughter get confident in her reading skills. I would highly recommend them to any beginning reader. They are fun stories but the words are all easy to sound out. I'm amazed at how many 3-letter words are in our language that I hadn't thought about! February 5, 2008 Good My son and I enjoyed reading through the books. My son confidence has increased my son's confidence a lot in reading.. Thanks... December 11, 2007 must buy for the beginner reader! My son is 5 and NOW can read all of the Bob books. He really loves them and we don't have to "make" him read them. I highly recommend the entire Bob Book collection. October 19, 2007 Bob Books Set 2 I wasn't sure how my 4 year old would respond to the simple nature of the Bob books. She loves complex stories and pretty pictures. However, she surprised me and loves these books. She is flying through them and feeling success with each new book we try. I think the satisfaction of being able to "read it alone" is more satisfying than a book with pretty pictures. I would recommend these to anyone who has a child who wants to read on their own! This is a great place to start the journey. June 8, 2007 A good continuation of series 1 and 2 If you have already tried the Bob's books 1 & 2 you already know that this is an excellent starter series for begining readers who know a series of sight words that they have been taught. These sight words are used in amusing but uncomplicated sentences that give a new reader a sense of accomplishment. May 9, 2007 great books to learn by! A great set of beginning books- allows the child to learn the basics of reading with repetitive sounds and words- pictures to help with the association of the words. Great for the Pre-K and K student~! For more Bob Books Set 2-Advancing Beginners reviews click here.
