Use of the CD format will make it easier to locate a specific song or story, not to mention that it will be far more durable. Dividing the recordings into separate CDs will also allow you to keep the story CDs in listening centers and the song CD in the classroom if you like. Each CD will also be available for individual ordering. You can easily order multiple copies for your school, or parents can purchase them for home use. As you may notice upon reading the Wendy Watch stories appearing in this newsletter, there are two significant changes we've made to all stories based on suggestions of current High Hat users.
All stories now carry a similar phrase at the end.
High Hat was glad he could help Wendy Watch, because more than anything else, High Hat likes to make people happy. This phrase provides a way to tie the stories together, and students will enjoy the repetition. Another new feature you will find in all of the stories is the insertion of the story's target sound in isolation along with a pronunciation key. We have also included a second, newly written story about Wendy Watch to be used for further practice of the sounds. Once upon a time there was a little girl named Wendy.
