Bear Necessities Book A2
ISBN 9781905174218
Bear Necessities is designed for children who need extra support with the basics of learning to read. Book A2 follows on from Bear Necessities Book A1

Children who need more help with reading when they have completed this book should progress to Dancing Bears B.








S. M. –
Bear Necessities has been an invaluable resource in accelerating my child’s reading journey, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. The structured and systematic approach has played a pivotal role in building a strong foundation for my child’s reading skills. The carefully designed lessons and the focus on phonics and word recognition have contributed significantly to my child’s ability to decode words with confidence. Furthermore, the use of the cursor, the constant reinforcement of previously learned sounds, and the use of scientifically proven learning strategies has helped cement the learning. Although some words and terminology are not commonly used in Canada and may not be easily understood, rather than being a hindrance, this has provoked conversations (and often incorporation into daily life!) At its best, Bear Necessities incorporates creative sentences and stories that continue to keep my child engaged in wanting to learn and progress in his learning. Bear Necessities has been a great investment in my child’s education and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent seeking to improve their child’s reading skills.
