Our Superkids reading series is aligned with the Common Core Standards. The series integrates reading, writing, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and handwriting. During the first half of the school year, we will meet the thirteen Superkids one at a time. As a Superkid is introduced, review with your child, vocabulary words that are characteristic with that Superkid. The vocabulary will be categorized by nouns, verbs, adjectives, and topic words. We will also read non-fiction text to reinforce the interest of the Superkid. Use the list of words to help expand your child’s vocabulary.
