Other editions of book Phoebe Sounds It Out

Meet Phoebe. Unfortunately, her name doesn’t look quite like it sounds. At school, her classmates practice writing their names, but Phoebe struggles. Her teacher tells her to “just sound it out.” Phoebe doubts herself and procrastinates before resolving to try. Readers are privy to her funny, endearing interior monologue and little-kid rationale as she writes the result: FEEBY.Told in a relatable, introspective voice, this school story conveys the feelings and worries of a 5-year-old and supports learning about sounds and letters. Readers will see from Phoebe’s fellow kindergartners’ attempts that everyone makes mistakes, and that we can take pride in effort and not just perfection.LEVELINGGrade Range: Pre-K–2Fountas & Pinnell: JReading Recovery: 17Lexile: AD 590LCOMMON CORERL.1.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9L.1.1,1b,1e,1f,2,2a,2b,2d,2e,4L.1.4b,4c,5,5a,5b,5c,5d,6RF.1.1,2,2a,2b,2c,2d,3,3a,3e,4SL.1.1,1b,1c,2,3,4,5,6W.1.3,5,6,8
