Jump Right Into Reading

This book is part of the EPS "Right into Reading" series, which is designed to give either beginning readers or older struggling readers a solid foundation in basic sounds through a wide variety of readings.

Jump Right into Reading introduces the letters of the alphabet (regular sounds only) in carefully sequenced groups of "bite-sized" lessons so that words can be read immediately. Students learn how letters and their sounds combine to make words that have meaning.

An engaging, connect-the-dots line drawing of an animal introduces each new letter. The sound being taught is then emphasized in red text (along with words having the same beginning sound) at the start of the lesson, as an aid to visual learners. Students then say the name of the picture and circle the letters of the provided pictures that begin with the same sound. They then move on to tracing the letter; printing the letter under the pictures that begin with the same sound; circling the letter; drawing a line between upper and lower case letters; connecting pictures with the same beginning sound; and completing other simple exercises that develop reading comprehension and vocabulary while introducing phonics skills and reinforcing phonological awareness.
