OU Stories is a magnificent rhyming book that goes beyond the “trout soup” lesson. The book explores numerous words that contain OU in them as a digraph “group”, trigraph “pour”, tetragraph “dough”, suffix “famous” and lots more.
This fun book of OU stories is useful for story time, spelling improvement classes, poetry sessions, phonological and phonemic awareness lessons, reading intervention programmes, adult literacy classes, and English as a second language classes. Stories are entertaining and suitable for anyone who enjoys rhymes.
Words with OU in them are displayed in full bloom in this exciting and entertaining book of short stories with colourful illustrations for readers to grasp the concept of words with the same rimes and the different sounds letters make with the presence of other letters.
OU Stories book for improving spelling and reading
Persons of all ages will see and hear the words “mouse”, “group”, “dough”, “tough” and “thought” in one book and learn that the vowel sounds in all these words do not sound the same even though they look the same.
