Bob Books: Idea #246

Are you looking for a good series for your beginning reader? You should try Bob Books. The books are designed to help kids "take their first steps into reading." The books begin very simple with My First Bob Books that help with pre-reading skills. The books get more difficult as your student goes up the levels in the book sets. Your student's confidence will grow as they read each book.

On the Bob Books website they provide a Bookfinder Quiz to help you figure out your student's reading level and which set of Bob Books you should start with. If you prefer not to use the Bookfinder Quiz, the Bob Book series focus on different literacy concepts you can choose from, such as the following: compound words, word families, long vowels, complex words, the alphabet, sight words, advanced beginner readers, and pre-reading skills. Find what is ideal for your student.

I like that Bob books are short and have fun illustrations. Kids love them. Sometimes the book sets come with activities and printables for your student. There are even Bob Apps now! Check out this website to see all that Bob Books have to offer. Looks like your student won't be bored this summer!
