Starfall: Zac the Rat

Curated by ACT

Beginning readers can listen as they read-along with this wonderfully animated story about Zac, a rat who gets into quite a jam. Students can click on a word and it will show them how to blend the phonemes to pronounce it. It is an excellent drill for learning to pronounce the short A sound.
