Student Workbook 4 introduces M, N, O, P, U, Q, R. You cannot print any words containing Q without also printing U so U is introduced first. The students progress to reading short story books. Stellar Stories 1- 6 are beginning readers designed to be read in conjunction with Student Workbook 4. In addition to recognizing beginning sounds, students will now identify ending sounds and vowel sounds. At this point in your phonics program many students will really take off in their ability to read. They get tremendously excited with their new skills. These 25 lessons continue to exercise the skills learned in the previous lessons while adding new letters and sounds. Lessons 56–80 teach the following skills and concepts:

• Ending sounds.
• Middle (vowel) sounds.
• Reading beginning readers (Stellar Stories 1–6).
  • Stellar Stories contain only words that can be decoded with the letter sounds learned.
  • Stellar Stories contain no sight words to confuse emergent readers.
  • Stellar Stories transition children from individual words and sentences in workbooks, or on the board, to books.
  • Stellar Stories provide the foundation for introducing discussions that analyze what children have read

All Student Workbooks 2–9 include the following pages:

• Achievement Charts
  • Enable children to track their progress.
  • Provide ready-made progress reports.
• Vocabulary Cards
  • Use the front side (word and a picture) to aid understanding.
