Love Reading Series (Word Recognition Level 2)

Author: Dr. Latifa Al-Najjar Age: 4 years and above Book overview: This book is part of a series titled I Love Reading, and it represents the first level of basic reading levels. The level of word recognition is the most important level to enable the child to read, which is called the "Reading Threshold." This book contains 69 words, divided into four groups: words with Alif Madd, words with Waw Madd, words with Ya Madd, words with a silent syllable. All the words in this book consist of only two syllables, which the child is familiar with, passes through in their experience, and are frequently used in Arabic. The word is presented segmented horizontally, then in full without segmentation. This stage of presenting a group of words that all share the same structure helps the child develop a fixed reading mechanism, which raises their efficiency and speed. At the end of the book, a suggested table for distributing the words over the days is provided; a parent or teacher can adhere to it if they wish. For encouragement and motivation, small stickers are placed for the child to stick under each word they finish reading, so they continue reading the words and complete the book. This book is designed to boost the child's confidence, make reading enjoyable, without burdening them with many demands or long time. Continuity and regularity are the most important factors to ensure the success of this series. If the child adheres to the proposed schedule, they will reap the fruits of noticeable progress in reading, practice regularity and commitment, and feel joy in achievement. Number of pages: 86
