Combos combine a Sing Your Way Through Phonics CD (available in either teacher’s voice or children’s voices) and its associated Mini-Charts with a single volume Song Lyrics Booklet at a reduced price. A helpful Teaching Suggestions Booklet is included with each combo.
Target letters, words, spelling patterns, and concepts are represented graphically on 8.5”x11” Mini-Charts, providing a visual link to print. Students point to the Mini-Charts as each example is addresed in the song. Instrumental tracks on the CD allow singers to substitute their own examples and to print or draw them on Mini-Chart templates. The Teaching Suggestions Booklet contains a basic lesson plan for teaching the songs and song-specific tips, as well as additional examples that can be substituted in each song.
