VIEWING & PRINTING TIPS 9 You should save this file to your computer so you can revisit at your convenience to print

pages as needed.

9 The latest version of Adobe Acrobat is recommended. You may have more than one version on your computer. Uninstall the old version(s) if you are having problems.

9 Adobe Acrobat Reader may have the option Fit to Page checked by default. This may or may not result in a better printout. Experiment with this to get the best results & correct size.

9 If you have problems printing, try checking the option Print as Image.

9 If the pages are printing without the images, your computer may be low on memory or resources. This is a common problem associated with Adobe Acrobat Reader. Restart your computer and try printing again. Also try sending fewer pages to the printer at a time. If you dont have the most current version of Acrobat, you may also experience problems

ABOUT KINDERREADERS Four Different Levels of Each Title

Each title features 4 leveled versions. As the number of the level decreases, the words, sentence structure, and punctuation become simpler while the illustrations and storyline remain the same. Simply choose the appropriate level for each of your reading groups. Wordless Version

Included with the four levels of each title is a wordless version. This version contains the same illustrations as the original, but is without words. To see some creative ideas for implementing this version into activities, see our ideas page. Topics Fit into Thematic Units

Titles are written with common thematic units in mind. Our current selection contains topics related to seasonal themes. Use a Different Title Each Week

In order to help you implement KINDERREADERS completely into your classroom, there are 4 titles available for every month of the school year!

Allow Students to Keep and Take Home

Because these books are reproducible, you have the wonderful option of allowing each student to keep his or her books and create a collection of "I CAN READ" books for each child. This is a terrific way to build reading confidence in your students. Repetitive Text

As with most other guided reading books, the text of each title is predictable and repetitive to help emergent readers. In addition, the illustrations are designed to make "picture walks" fun and easy. Your children will truly enjoy predicting what will happen next in these joyful playful stories. Downloadable

All books are in PDF format and can be immediately downloaded to your computer. Reproducible

Once you have purchased a title, you may print and reproduce it as many times as you like for use in your classroom year after year. For use by more than one teacher, multiple licenses need to be purchased.

IDEAS FOR USE OF KINDERREADERS

Using the Different Levels

If reading groups are arranged homogeneously, then simply choose the appropriate version for the reading level of each group. This allows each group to work on the same book but still be successful yet challenged readers.

Another way to determine which level to use is to focus on a specific concept of print, sight word, or phonics skill and choose the appropriate version to teach and reinforce it.

Working In the Books

Allow children to "work" in their books. Ask them to circle, underline, or draw a box around specific things. You can also allow the children to use colored highlighters to highlight certain letters, words, spaces, punctuation, etc. (Children LOVE to use highlighters!)

Before running off copies, white out all punctuation throughout the book. After reading through the story, go back and help the children determine what punctuation is necessary and where they should put it.

Allow the children to write their own endings to the story. Before copying, remove the last page of the book and replace it with one of the following:

1. A Blank Page - the children illustrate and write the text 2. The Last Page of the Wordless Version - children use illustration to write the text 3. A Page With the Correct Text, But No Illustration - children illustrate the given text

Use titles in your Listening Center. Record the story several times so the children can listen and follow along. After reading the story repeatedly, have the children practice listening skills by following your directions and working in the books. You can ask them to color items specific colors, underline/circle words, letters, blends, digraphs, punctuation, etc.

Using the Wordless Version

Make the wordless version a writing activity by asking the children to write their own text for all the illustrations. Depending on abilities, you might choose to use just one page, a few pages, or the entire book for this activity.

YOU become the author by adding your own text before copying.

While working in small groups, pass out the wordless version only and use this version for the picture walk. Because there is no text, children will be forced to focus on the pictures (rather than trying to "sound out" the words) and find the picture clues. Upon completion of the picture walk, collect the wordless copies and pass out the chosen level. Now, the children can focus on the text using the clues you just discovered, as well as other good reader strategies on which you have been working.

Creating Personal Book Collections

After reading and working in his/her book, each student should be allowed to keep it and add it to his/her personal collection of "I Can Read" books. Create a book box for each child. You can use anything - cereal boxes cut on a slant, shoeboxes, plastic shoebox size containers, etc. Have a brainstorming session with small groups of children to let them think of favorite stories each has read. Let them then draw a picture or two from each story on plain white art paper which you will use to cover their personal boxes. To nicely "finish off" the box, purchase clear contact paper and cover to preserve the child's artwork. Keep these boxes in an easy-to-reach spot for the children. As each child completes a task, allow the student to get his/her book box and read until it is time for the next activity.

If you do not want to keep the books in your classroom, you can send them home. A great way to make a home-school connection is to send a book home each week with a "Suggested Activities" paper attached. By creating multi-disciplinary activities related to the book, you can get parents very involved. Encourage children to bring in the home activities and share them with the class.

Each level of the book will contain the same illustrations. As the number of the level gets lower, from 4 to 1, the sentence structure, punctuation, and words become easier. You may choose one version for your entire class, or use different versions with different groups of children.

The wordless version can be used in many ways. One suggestion is that each teacher can add text that is appropriate for skills being taught. A second suggestion is to use it as a writing activity for the children and have children add the text.

This title contains a bonus version where the spider is missing from the illustrations. Have the children read the words and draw the spider in the appropriate place on the illustration. On the last page, each child should draw himself/herself with the spider.

Bonus * Draw the spider version Pages 52 - 61

Because this is a very large file you may want to print each version individually as needed. Each page is duplicated on the top and bottom of each sheet, producing 2 books per page. Copy all the pages in order (collated), add a staple to the top corner and another mid-page, below the dotted line. Cut on the dotted line. You now have 2 ready to use books.

** Tip - Take the total number of copies of each version that you will need and divide it in half. THAT is the number of copies to make. (Remembereach copy will yield 2 books.)

Level 1 - easiest version Pages 32 - 41

Wordless version Pages 42 - 51

Level 3 Pages 12 - 21

Level 2 Pages 22 - 31
