About this ebook
Learn how to read with these decodable Phonic Books for older readers.
Dark Waters are older reader books that introduce children to how words are built using prefixes, suffixes, and root words. This pack of 10 decodable books helps older children develop an understanding of morphology (the structure of words) through a series of engaging stories.
Dedicated books in each stage break down phonics practice while offering different stories for ages 9-12 (Elementary). These action-packed stories are designed for reluctant readers, taking them through different suffixes, prefixes, and root words.
For example:
Book 1: Suffixes (-s, -es, -ed, -ing)
Book 2: Suffixes (-ful, -less, -ness, -er, -est, -ly, -en, -ish, -y, -able, -ible)
Book 3: Prefixes (un-, in-, im-, ir-, il-, dis-, mis-)
Book 4: Prefixes (re-, pre-)
Book 5: Prefixes (uni-, tri-, quad-)
Book 6: Prefixes (super-)
Book 7: Prefixes (magna-, mini-, micro-)
Book 8: Root words (cap, man, spec, viv)
Book 9: Root words (mem)
Book 10: Root words (ject, tract, struct, labor, fact, form)
Accompanying activities are also available with Phonic Books Dark Waters Activities. Phonic Books Dark Waters shares the same phonic progression as Phonic Books Amber Guardians and can be used together to consolidate phonemic knowledge and reading skills.
