The marsh / by Lear, Lee-Ann.;
The Teal Series has a range of text structures. Some texts, like the Green Series Photo Stories, have more of a narrative structure, describing what the characters are doing and experiencing. Other texts are non-fiction and informative. The series includes engaging topics ranging from cooking to camping to trips to the park. Like the Green and Blue Series, the text is large and clear with extra space to help young readers see the distinction between each word. The Teal Series (10 Photo Titles) is parallel to the Blue Series, and of similar difficulty. Both the Teal and the Blue Series start with open syllables, but then diverge. You can choose which series to begin with, depending on your scope and sequence. The following concepts are introduced in the Teal Series: <o>/ō/, <e>/ē/, <u>/ū/, and <y>/ī/ in open syllables -- VCe pattern -- <ar>, <ur>, and <ir>, and the concept of r-controlled vowels -- "marker <e>" after <v>, <c> as /s/, and contractions -- compound words, and vowel flexibility in two syllable words -- <ild>/īld/, <ind>/īnd/,<old>/ōld/, <ost>/ōst/ -- High Frequency Words: "you" and "are".

You've changed / by Williams, Ian,1979-author.;
"Middle-aged and about to be dumped from his construction job, Beckett is not feeling his best -- especially since his wife, Princess, is already pressuring him to improve himself. She's a fitness instructor who spends a lot of time and energy finetuning every inch of her body. Still, they both think their marriage is basically fine, until a couple of friends show up for a visit, their mutual affection and sexual chemistry loudly on display. In one weekend, they upset the tenuous balance between Beckett and Princess, throwing them into parallel midlife crises. Princess thinks the problem is physical, and attempts to revive Beckett's interest with relentless surgical alterations and bodily enhancements that have the opposite effect on her husband. Beckett tries to woo Princess back to him by relaunching his contracting business, laying his manly accomplishments at her feet. Then, while Princess is away pursuing even more drastic beauty measures, Beckett meets Gluten, an energetic and erratic man devoted to living in the moment, whom Beckett feels drawn to in ways that surprise him. Beckett is changing, Princess is changing: what will happen to their already stressed marriage?"--

Remedies for sorrow : an extraordinary child, a secret kept from pregnant women, and a mother's pursuit of the truth / by Nix, Megan,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."An inspiring memoir and work of fierce advocacy by a mother whose child is born deaf, leading her to investigate and expose a preventable virus that causes more childhood disabilities than any other--but is kept quiet by the medical community. One virus causes more birth defects and disabilities in children than any other infectious disease, yet 93% of Americans don't know it exists. In 2015, after an outwardly uneventful pregnancy, Megan Nix's second daughter, Anna, was born terribly small and failed her newborn hearing test. Megan and her husband learned that Anna is completely deaf and could have lifelong delays due to an infection in the womb with cytomegalovirus, or CMV, a disease Megan unknowingly contracted from her toddler during pregnancy. While doctors warn pregnant women against the risks of saunas, sushi, and unpasteurized cheese, they don't mention that CMV is contagious in the saliva of one out of three toddlers, spread through a kiss, a shared cup, a bite of unfinished toast. Anna's diagnosis led Megan to years of in-depth research, uncovering a shocking fact: obstetricians in the United States are advised not to mention CMV to women during their pregnancies. Unfolding across the dramatic landscape of Sitka, Alaska, where Megan's husband makes his living as a salmon fisherman, Remedies for Sorrow is lyrically written and a searing critique of the paternalistic practice of "benevolent deception" in medicine"--
