At School (Great Stories: Beginner): Wayzgoose Graded Readers

By Shelley Hale Lee

Meet the Park family. Their two daughters are starting school in the US. Their teacher is very nice, but she wants to give Min Jee an English name. And Min Jee doesn't want an English name... Her mom is taking a Zoom class to help her English. But nobody can hear her! What can she do?

 

In the Kasongo family, Helene doesn't understand how to do her math homework. Her parents can do math, but the teacher wants it done a special way… Joseph is working hard at university. Then one day he has a chance to help another student learn a language he knows.

 

At School helps English language learners and beginning readers practice in several ways. The stories help reading fluency. Sentences include useful vocabulary and many common words in English. Some stories have conversations that model spoken English. At School features short and long vowel sounds, consonant blends, and common sight words. The stories feature common situations in elementary school, high school, and university.
