Jay Wants Rays

The Rapid Reading book series allows readers to slowly acquire the decoding skills needed in the right order to learn to read and become fluent readers. The series contains interesting, colorful stories with the reading skill emphasized on every page. The constant repetition of prevalent decoding skills allows readers to quickly and efficiently practice the sounds, thereby internalizing them and becoming fluent readers. Book 11 of the series emphasizes the "ay" word family and follows Jay, who only wants a sunny day. He goes through his chores and hopes for sun rays, and gets his wish on his birthday. This book continues the third set of the series (books 10-13), which improves fluency reading stories with the word families "oo", "ay", "all", and "ight".
