Absolutely necessary for anyone who teches reading and phonics to children of any age. This book will give a list of words that contain any phonic combination in the English Language. I highly suggest every teacher own this book. Give them as gifts to new teachers joining your school. Nothing will be appreciated more by any teacher.

As an elementary ed student (I student teach next semester) this book is everything that I have been looking for to help me be a better reading/language arts teacher. I love this book! I liked it so much I took it to school and shared it with my fellow elementary ed students and instructor, and they ALL bought the book too! This is a must-have for any elementary teacher. You won't be sorry.

I use it endlessly even with Kindergartners. Parents ask to borrow it regularly. A must-have!

Because this book helps one determine the student's reading ability and age level, it is especially useful. It also helps one select the right materials for that student. A perfect compliment to the book, "You Can Teach Someone to Read."

Finally! A book that actually gives me hands on tools on how to teach my child to read. Not only were the tools beneficial, but I found the book to be well written and easy to understand. I am going to recommend this book to all my friends with school age children, who are just learning to read.
