Children climb to new heights in reading and writing with these engaging word-building games! Working from the starting word at the bottom, children read clues on each rung, then change and rearrange letters to create words until they reach the top. All the while, they’re boosting decoding and spelling skills, broadening vocabulary, and becoming better, more fluent readers.
Written by Timothy Rasinski, professor of literacy education at Kent State University and director of its award winning reading clinic, this book contains over 80 photocopiable activities, perfect for use in the classroom or at home.
