Brilliant Readers Book One: Open and Closed Syllables (Long and Short Vowels)

What are open and closed syllables? What is the difference between a long vowel and a short vowel? Discover these foundational pieces to reading with the amusing canines, Mrs. Mo and her student Max. These fun loving dogs will not only grab your students' attention but will also teach the concepts in an interactive way.

Throughout her teaching career, Nicki Winter, an avid dog lover, has been integrating her dogs into classroom books or lessons to engage students in various reading concepts. Students not only learn the foundational stepping stones of reading but also smile and enjoy the journey along the way.

"Delightful dogs and backyard birds in this fun-filled book help students build their foundation of vowel sounds. Students can practice alone, practice with a friend or practice with a family member and open the door to success"--Pat Pomaro, Dyslexia Therapists, Grapevine, Texas
