Description
Book SynopsisA wonderful resource book of stories based on fables and saints legends. Each story progressively develops vocabulary and sentence structure, and is designed for a forty-five minute period, including instruction and discussion time.
For remedial work in Year 3.
Trade Review'By third grade, if a student is still having significant struggles with the written word, extra lesson work is often recommended. Snip, Snap, Snout! is perhaps the best remedial reading book ever written. Stories are kept short, but they are never dull or contrived. The trained eye can catch that each story focuses on different word groups, sounds, punctuation and grammar, but all this is done so very artistically that someone who didn't know this was a book of stories for remedial reading would never notice. As with the other grade 3 readers, this one recapitulates the grade 2 curriculum of fables and saints, and does so with grace, charm and warmth.'
