Literacy by Design: Leveled Readers (Kindergarten)
These leveled readers help children in kindergarten develop emergent reading skills. They engage beginning readers as they develop sight word recognition and build fluency and comprehension skills.
Drawing from nationally recognized research in fluency, Reading for Every Child: Fluency gives you the tools you need to develop fluent readers in your classroom. Incorporating a wide variety of techniques, including partner reading, repeated reading, choral reading, and readers’ theaters, this book will keep your students motivated as they make that all-important bridge between word recognition and comprehension. Activities provide opportunities for listening and reading out loud to encourage students to read with confidence and appropriate rhythm and paceing.
'Key Words for Fluency' concentrates on those words which students need to communicate in English. It emphasises those very common words which occur in lots of different contexts and identifies around 150 nouns which are essential for fluency. Each unit deals with one word and on average covers 20 of its most important collocations, teaching over 3,000 lexical items. Collocation is the way words combine with other words in predictable ways. Knowing strong and frequent collocations is essential for fluency.

This book consists of collocations, that is words that go together. It is a very important book which teaches us that it would be incorrect to say " hire a house" because we usually "rent a house". There are three books of "Key words for fluency". This one is intermediate but it will be interesting for all level students, I am sure.
