Say, Read, & Spell

The sequencing of the skills follows that of Stories from Somerville Reader 1, also by Kimberly Ramsey.  The five sets of masters cover all the skills introduced in 50 stories of that reader.  Of course, these worksheets can be used independently of Stories from Somerville to teach the same skills.

Say, Read, & Spell by Kimberly Ramsey
with instruction notes by Dr. Phyllis E. Fischer

This is a series of five sets of 8½"×11" worksheets, covering 50 separate skills for reading one-syllable words and common suffixes.  There are four pages of exercises for each skill:
