Partner Poems & Word Ladders for Building Foundational Literacy Skills (Grades 1–3)

Motivate young readers to build fluency with short, humorous partner poems designed for shared reading. Each poem is followed by a skill‑building word ladder that reinforces phonics and vocabulary, along with an engaging mini‑lesson in reading, writing, or word study. Together, these components create a comprehensive, strategic approach to early literacy instruction. The book also provides targeted practice with phonograms—an essential step for students who are ready to expand their vocabulary and deepen their experiences with print.
