Pulling Together Reading Series Book 6

Book 6: Ready, Set, Read with _____: Pulling Together: A Phonics Reading Team

Decodable Phonics Lessons with a Designer Dog

Your child can break big words apart and spot prefixes. Now it’s time for the endings that finish them.

Book 6 teaches the common suffixes, the word endings that change how a word works. Readers learn to find the base word, add the ending, and read the whole word smoothly, using the same rule they learned in Book 5: each syllable has one vowel sound.

What’s inside

• 38 step-by-step lessons, with the same steps every day so your child knows what’s coming
• A short story in every lesson, written by the author, plus four Talk About It questions, including word-meaning and “has this ever happened to you?” questions
• A review of prefixes and suffixes at the start, so readers coming from Book 5 or starting fresh are ready
• One-page “Mark it. Read it.” and “Which word fits?” reviews along the way, so you know when to move on
• Meet the Herd pages, with a QR code to meet the star of the book
• Clear parent notes on every page; no teaching experience needed

The secret on the farm

A tiny designer dog with a giant personality acts tough until the horses get close. He has more nicknames than anyone can count, and his real name is hidden under the ribbon on the cover. Your child earns every sound they need, lesson by lesson, until they read it aloud on their own.

Who's it for

Readers of any age who have finished Book 5 or can read words with prefixes: homeschool families, parents teaching at home, children with dyslexia, and tutors. Not sure where to start? The free placement readers on our site show you which book fits your child.
