What Your Child Is Doing

My Sidewalks uses literature that children love! The reading material also provides immediate opportunities to use new skills.

• Decodable text gives children immediate practice with the word and letter patterns they just learned.
• A high proportion of non-fiction selections helps struggling readers improve their understanding of concepts learned in other subjects.
