[MOSAIC] Fountas and Pinnell
Hi Does anyone use the Fountas and Pinnell phonics/word study program? We want to order the word and picture cards but we are not sure if they are valuable and worth the money.

I had the same experience. There are several ways to buy books from this organization. We bought many sets of 6 through their Title One program when we started guiding reading just to have books. Some are really good and some are not. You can review each book online and choose the ones you want. Their books are not free due to the shipping charges. You also have to be careful with the large quantities of books they offer. Many are second hand and you don't know what the condition is until you receive them. My advice is to investigate thoroughly before purchasing. We have bought them, but we took our time and bought specific titles. Jeanne DE -- Original message from [EMAIL PROTECTED]: -- A couple of years ago, my principal forwarded me an email from them to see if I thought it was a good idea. Correct me if I'm wrong, but once I calculated the shipping and handling charges, the book were not that free. The books did not appear to be very good quality in terms of content.

Re: [MOSAIC] Fountas and Pinnell
Hi, I use the Phonics program, and I am thinking that those cards are very over priced. I have the 2nd grade version and we do not have lessons with the pictures, but the CD rom that comes with the program is fantastic and you can print out exactly what you need - and even create your own word cards. I hope that helps :) _ Help yourself to FREE treats served up daily at the Messenger Café.

Re: [MOSAIC] Fountas and Pinnell
Hi We have the program. I used it a lot the first year I had it, especially with my struggling readers but don't use it so much anymore. the lessons require a lot of prep and the kids spend a lot of time doing work at their seat. I've switched gears to doing most of my phonics work through oral language games. I do use some of the activities for word work and I also use the picture cards and templates a lot but I bet you can get similar ones elsewhere like in the book Words Their Way or Word Matters. Hope this helps.
