fall between K and grade 3.6. We have been reading the stories in sets 7 and 8 for the past several weeks. While they are below the reading level at which my daughter tests, these books are great quick reads and have been wonderful for reinforcement and improving skills. She is really enjoying them!Each book includes vocabulary words and skills to be emphasized. These little books are divided into short stories, similar to the readers I remember using when I was in elementary school. They are the perfect length for a child to read aloud without becoming frustrated or tired of reading. The stories are
interesting and engaging. Even though the books and illustrations are completely in black and white, they are very visually appealing. There are multiple free and paid additional resources that can be used with the I See Sam books. On the Academic Success for all Learners website you can even download a free book, a placement / assessment test, success tracking materials, and flashcards. The website is simple to navigate. I See Sam book sets are available for $30 / set. Each set contains ten books, with each subsequent book more difficult than the previous. They are available for purchase through the Academic Success for all Learners website.
These little books are fabulous for taking along in the car or to
appointments because they are the size of a half sheet of paper and they are paperback. They fit easily into a purse or backpack without adding tons of extra weight. I recommend them for any family with early readers or any family with reading children who need to strengthen their reading skills. Members of the crew were able to use and review all of the books in this series.
