Common Core Reading Materials Used By Teachers And Parents Alike

By Georgia Diaz


As most parents know, a teacher does not pick and choose the curriculum she or he teaches. Certain subjects must be taught at a certain level in any given school year. There is always time to veer off the routine course. However, certain requirements must be met each year. The common core reading materials can be relied on to present all subjects at the proper grade level as labeled.

When the course material is presented to the children in a way that appeals to them, it makes learning a joyful experience rather than a chore. The teacher has to make certain the entire class can grasp the concepts in each subject. No two children learn at exactly the same pace and that must be taken into consideration.

The books now available are of great help to educators at all levels beginning with preschoolers. The number tracing book encourages learning the numbers and writing them, promoting good eye hand coordination at the same time. There are color recognition books and letter recognition books among others.

Learning aids are available for children up to and including high school age. In the elementary years a teacher can find books and workbooks for each subject, math and reading for example. There are also comprehensive kits available that cover the entire scope of basic subjects.

For example, there is a math kit for each grade level and a language-arts kit. There is a book and a workbook for the basic subjects. It is a great help to know that each kit, book or supplemental teaching aid conforms to the required state standards set for the children at the indicated level. Second grade material will be simpler than third grade material and difficulty increases with each grade.

The books and workbooks are supplemented by task cards, learning mats and other teaching aids. They are all engaging and serve to capture the interest of the students. Learning is enhanced and promoted through the use of dynamic material. Each book is filled with bright pictures, colors and other attractive details.

There are resource materials for both teachers and students. New ideas for the teachers to introduce are available as well as study kits the students can use to develop their individualized abilities. Specific titles include compound words, weather conditions and scientific concepts such as states of matter. The academics are attended to and there is material on physical fitness as well.

The teacher is not the only individual who appreciates the materials. There is a line of fun products parents can introduce at home. The books and cards promote learning in a pleasant way. Many of the items can easily masquerade as games similar to those the child might receive as a gift.

The common core reading materials are written in an appealing way and have fantastic graphics. Special topics are covered in addition to the reading, math and language arts texts. One example is a book exploring the concepts of weather conditions. Kits for preschoolers have bright, colorful pieces in different shapes. The books come in two different formats. An educator or parent may prefer the hard copy or the email version and both are readily available.
