Three Bees teaches readers simple facts about bees and how to detect word patterns using the vowel blend “ee”. For example, the book reads, “The three bees fly to the flowers, sip nectar, and return home.” The simple text is easy to understand, allowing readers to build reading confidence.
Each two-page spread has a full-page picture that focuses on bees or flowers. Each sentence contains five to seven simple words, with repetition of the vowel blend ‘ee’, which helps readers learn how to produce this sound. The words are printed in large font, making them easier to read.
Beginning readers will practice and apply knowledge of the “ee” sound when reading Three Bees. The photographs and colorful pages will help engage students. The book ends with a word list for review. Three Bees will help children learn to read by focusing on spelling patterns used in a simple story.
