Hear more about the Jump Rope Readers progression across fiction and nonfiction!
The Jump Rope Readers are a series of engaging and diverse decodable books that captivate beginning readers. As you explore the Jump Rope Readers fiction books, you'll notice the books are arranged into different series, each starring a distinctive main character that students will enjoy getting to know. We meet these familiar characters again as they make special guest appearances in later fiction books, and then in each nonfiction book where they invite children to explore high-interest social studies and science topics inspired by story elements from the fiction series.
Each fiction book introduces new phonics features and high-frequency words to help students build skills. After kids have read several fiction books, they can read a matching set of nonfiction books that give them opportunities to practice the same words and letter-sound correspondences while learning about new content in a new genre.
Together, all of the Jump Rope Readers provide a progression of skill building and supportive practice that allows students to gradually improve their skills as the step up towards the ultimate goal of reading confidently and fluently.
