Vernon Hills, IL, March 2003—ETA/Cuisenaire
introduces SunSprouts™—a
comprehensive series of Big Books for shared reading and
leveled texts for guided and independent reading. SunSprouts
offers instructional material and books that engage beginning
readers with predictable story structures and memorable
characters. Stories are also brought to life with audio CDs
and hand puppets of recurring characters.
SunSprouts
features award-winning trade book authors and illustrators,
and stories with satisfying and surprising outcomes in both
fiction and nonfiction texts. Beginning readers easily identify
with the familiar stories and topics. "Even at the
simplest, most repetitive level, children need texts that
engage them so they see a reason for reading," says
SunSprouts author and editor, Rodney Martin.
Each
SunSprouts level offers twenty titles that introduce early
readers to a wide range of literacy styles and genres, while
helping them learn skills and strategies necessary for successful
reading and writing. Comprehensive instructional support
provides management strategies, detailed lesson plans, blackline
activity masters, and a Record of Oral Reading for every
title.
With
the addition of SunSprouts to their reading/language arts
product line, ETA/Cuisenaire is your complete source for
K–6 resources to help teach skills from reading readiness
and phonemic awareness through language arts and writing.
