Description
Helping to expand vocabulary of beginning readers, this tale uses the oot and owl and eak and ouse word pattern families (example: boot, hoot, scoot, shoot, and so on). Natural rhyming text delights read-to-me listeners.
This is an Interactive Book-Webscene (IBW) title. It includes access to seven free online animations called webscenes. Animations display pop-up words in English and English-Spanish. Pop-up words identify objects, actions and abstract concepts. Also included is free access to online learning activities.
Includes accompanying word-for-word, English-to-Spanish comparison text. This enables non-English speaking Spanish language parents to monitor their child s reading, even without knowing English words themselves.
This sample passage from the book A Scary Day in the Forest shows how the IBW process works with webscenes:
I feel sick, Mrs. Rabbit said. Go find Dad in the forest. Bring him to the house.
Bunny did not like the forest. She was little. The forest was big... and scary.
I will bring Dad to the house, Bunny said. She did not say the forest was scary.
I will go, too, squeaked Mouse.
Thank you both, said Mrs. Rabbit.
Bunny put on her red and blue boots. Mouse put on her green and yellow boots.
Scoot! said Mrs. Rabbit. Scoot means go fast!
Bunny looked out the door at the forest.
We will scoot, said Bunny. We will go fast. We will bring Dad to the house.
At the end of the passage, the reader goes online to view the webscene ka-reader.com/5-1. In this instance, the webscene animation shows Bunny at home, about to go into the scary forest. The webscene contains the pop-up words scary and forest.
