Easy True Stories , Second Edition, by Sandra Heyer, is a companion book to All New Easy True Stories, which is at the same level but features all new stories and exercises. These two parallel readers give students the option of lingering at the low-beginning level. They can go back and forth between Easy True Stories and All New Easy True Stories , or they can complete first one book and then the other. Or teachers can use Easy True Stories one semester and All New Easy True Stories the next. That way, students who stay in a low-beginning class when their classmates move on to the next level can essentially repeat the class but with all new material. Combined, the two books offer 40 stories, giving teachers multiple opportunities to incorporate reading into their thematically-based instructional units. Features First, students look at a series of 9 pictures while the teacher tells the story. This pre-reading step gives students a global understanding of the story before they read. Next, students read the story. Finally, students complete exercises following each story to develop basic reading skills as well as build pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary proficiency. MP3 audio recordings of each story are available free at www.pearsonelt.com/truestories. An expanded To the Teacher section gives additional teacher support with step-by-step phonics lessons, plus strategies for making the readings more interactive.

Review: Good stories for student who already have a foundation - Good stories for student who already have a foundation. Look for "Very Easy True Stories" for your true beginners/low literacy students. Very odd that in such a small book there are TWO anti-communist stories. Seems a little inappropriate, but doesn't affect overall quality of book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,804,183 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #5,005 in English as a Second Language Instruction #6,060 in Foreign Language Instruction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 20 Reviews | ## Images ![Easy True Stories: A Picture-Based Beginning Reader (Level 2) (2nd Edition) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51qn-PxI3SL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great beginner readers for ELLs of all ages. *by S***N on October 29, 2016* A great next step to the level 1 stories.
