On the Trail of Sid the Snail Lisa Maccormac

This is a great story about Sid the snail and his friends who live on Main Street. One day Sid disappears and his friends go in search of him. Where on earth could Sid be? Which other friends will join in the search? Who do they meet along the way? Most importantly, will they find Sid? This is a story about caring for others, teamwork, problem solving, helping each other and not giving up. There are also four fun and engaging activities for your reader to complete in order to check and reinforce comprehension and learning. This is the third read-aloud book in 'Sounds make Words make Stories' Series 1. This is a structured reading program that introduces sound groups in a systematic and uncluttered way. It builds confidence and capability in your new reader by only focusing on new sounds together with those already learned. The program contains self-reader books as well as read-aloud story books. 'On the Trail of Sid the Snail' acts as a back drop to introduce the characters from the self-reader books in Series 1 and 1+, books 10 through 14. This program has had success with young readers, stubborn readers, readers with learning difficulties and readers with English as a second language. It has been proven to be an excellent educational tool within schools as well as for home learning.
