There are so many great benefits to reading to your baby and engaging them with books. Great for bonding Wondering if any of these books are for you and your little one? This collection of books is perfect for both boys and girls. Books with repetition and rhyming language are also great and easier for your baby to follow. Board books We spend time mastering each list of high frequency words with lots of explicit practice and repetition. We use them in sentences, recite fun poems, write and rewrite the words, play spelling games, and more. Teaching phonics rules rather than just memorizing words helps our students to read more than just the words on this list. It enables them to apply those rules to read other words that follow similar spelling patterns! When you’re a reading teacher, this is the goal!The next few spreads are words related to different activities and are basically fine -- though I'm not sure how much kids will understand the verbs (especially when "Mealtime" had a "sippy cup" and a "bottle" and then a picture of a kid drinking from a sippy cup labeled "drink"). Also, I feel that putting "fork and spoon" in a single photo makes it hard to teach them as distinct nouns.

Reading these to your kids helps them to develop language skills, and will make them laugh too. On The Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman A classic kid’s book about a tiger who visits a little girl and eats the contents of her kitchen! Monkey Puzzle by Julia DonaldsonThe story follows a baby monkey who has lost their mum. The monkey is helped through the jungle on a search to find her. The illustrations are bright but simple and the text features sing-song rhyming language that babies will love. What type of books are best for 1 year olds Of course, high frequency words and irregular words are important for children to learn to improve reading and spelling, but teachers are then tasked with figuring out which words to teach to beginning readers first. This book has slightly more words than the others on this list, but I think it’s important to sometimes push kids to a slightly higher reading level where you can.
