Each story in the Awakening Potential For Reading Success Book Series is aligned with a phonics concept or decoding strategy from the Awakening Potential For Reading Success reading program.
The story will contain words which use this concept, allowing the student to practice what they have learned from the corresponding lesson in the reading program.
The books can also be used as stand alone phonics books, or they can be used for reading practice in conjunction with other phonics programs.
Jump, Run, and Kick! uses the Invisible Suffixes strategy (i.e. cover up the suffix with your finger to make it ‘invisible.’ Then segment and blend the sounds together to read the part of the word you can still see. Then, add the suffix back on by taking off your finger, and read the entire word.).
Each story is divided into 3 or 4 levels (stories with more basic concepts, like Jump, Run, and Kick, only have levels 1-3):
- Level 1– Appropriate for students in grades 1-2. Very short sentences, mostly containing sight words. Only 1 or 2 words per sentence need to be decoded. Each page only has 1 sentence. Text is quite large. Large pictures accompany the text on each page.
- Level 2– Appropriate for students in grades 2-3. Longer sentences with 2-3 words that need to be decoded. Each page only has 1 sentence. Text is smaller than level 1. Large pictures accompany the text on each page.
- Level 3– Appropriate for students in grades 3-4. Longer sentences with more frequency of words that need to be decoded. Each sentence has 2-3 phrases. Each page has multiple sentences. Smaller pictures accompany the text on each page.
- Level 4– Appropriate for students in grades 4-6. Longest sentences of all the levels. Sentences have 2-3 phrases. Each page only has a large number of sentences. Pictures are only included every few pages.
Jump, Run, and Kick is a ‘can do’ story about girls who love to be active and do their best. These girls love to kickbox, bungee jump, run races, play soccer, and exercise at home. Although they may all have different personalities and interests, they all have a few things in common-confidence in themselves, the determination to do their best, and enjoying what they do!
