MOTT MEDIA LLC The Abc's and All Their Tricks: The Complete Reference Book of Phonics and Spelling

Ainda não terminei de ler, mas é muito bom. Ótima qualidade de impressão e conteúdo. Vale a pena! Difícil encontrar um livro sobre esse assunto tão completo!

Planning a lesson on the three sounds of CH and stumped on words that make the /sh/ sound? Wondering why the A in words like 'wash' and 'water' sounds more like short /o/? Need more examples of when the suffix ED sounds like /t/? This book has it all in such an easy-to-use format! Flip to any sound-spelling and find a list of words that have that sound - with easy, intermediate, and advanced examples.This book does provide information on each phonic sound-spelling, a tad bit of history and reasoning for the rules of each but it's not comprehensive enough to explain the full etymology. It's enough though to realize that many of the "exceptions" we claim that English has often have an explanation! :)The reason why I give this book 5 stars is because of its ease of use and everyday benefits. I find myself reaching for this book multiple times a week, if not daily, as I plan phonics lessons for my intervention students. Arranged alphabetically, it is so fast to flip to a particular sound spelling and have a list of words to use for reading practice, dictation exercises, word sorts, or any other activity.I wish the word lists were even longer for each sound-spelling as there is often a lot of white space left on the page. But I use the space to write down my own examples of each sound and over time I'll have a comprehensive list for each! :)Occasionally, I do not agree with the sound that a certain word makes although I attribute this to regional accent differences between myself and the author. Consider all of the words that you will pick to make sure they're suitable for your students.I LOVE this book! A must-have reference book for teachers!

Would recommend to anyone teaching children to read and parents. Excellent book easy to support children with some of the why to the english language, alphabetic cod and, morphology.

Attention : le livre est en anglais.Ce livre est une sorte de dictionnaire récapitulatif sur la prononciation des mots en anglais.Les premiers chapitres reviennent sur les règles de base de prononciation des consonnes et des voyelles, ainsi que sur les règles d'accentuation. Un chapitre donne des conseils pour les professeurs.Ensuite, le livre se présente sous forme de listes de mots regroupés en fonction de leur prononciation (il existe beaucoup d'irrégularités dans la prononciation en anglais).A la fin du livre, vous avez des appendices revenant sur la division des syllabes, leur accentuation, la structure des mots (doublement des consonnes, mots à origine latine, mots composés, ....)d'après moi, ce livre est vraiment très complet et est une référence en la matière.Je pense que ce livre peut vraiment être intéressant pour ceux qui apprennent l'anglais et qui ne connaissent pas forcément l'alphabet phonétique.

As an educator, this is one of my favorite resources to use in preparing explicit phonics lessons.
