ReviewedIn Bedtime, emergent readers see and read about a bedtime routine, including cleaning up, washing up, brushing hair and teeth, and preparing for sleep. Carefully crafted text uses high-frequency words, repetitive sentence patterns, and strong visual references to support emergent readers and ensure reading success.
Bedtime includes tools for teachers and caregivers as well as introductory nonfiction features such as labels, a table of contents, words to know, and an index. A Let’s Review! feature poses an image and question for further comprehension.
Bedtime is part of Jump!’s First Routines series.
From breakfast to bedtime, these daily activities that children go through are explained with easy to understand sentences and photographs of children taking charge of their actions. For early readers who are starting to develop their vocabulary, the task specific words highlighted in the text can help build their language skills around things that they accomplish everyday. Parents and caregivers can relate and use the images to illustrate the normality of routines in children’s everyday lives. VERDICT This is a great addition for preschools and families looking to show healthy routines for children to follow from modeled easy exercises to healthy eating at home.
