How to Make the Pencil Counting Easy Reader Books
I always get asked how I make the easy reader books. Here are the simple steps that I use to make the books. I use scissors and a stapler.
Cut Down the Center of the Pencil Counting Easy Reader Book
You start by lining up the pages and cutting down the middle of the book. You want to make sure you hold the pages steady while you cut.
Alternate the Pages of the Pencil Counting Easy Reader Book
You alternate the pages of the book. The odd pages are on the top and the even pages on the bottom. You have even and then odd until all the pages are sorted.
Staple the Left side of the Pencil Counting Easy Reader Book
After you make sure all the pages of the book are lined up, staple the book on the left side. Then your easy reader book is ready to be used.
Now you are ready to use your pencil easy reader book!
How we used the Pencil Counting Easy Reader Book with Chart Printables
You will see a few ideas how to use the pencil number counting book.
Color the Picture & Underline the Number
One fun way we like to read the book is to color the picture and underline the number word you are working on.
Read the Counting Book with the Pencil Number Chart
You could also use the number chart while reading the book. After you read a number page you cover it on the chart. We use the unifix cubes. This give them a fun interactive counting activity they can do with the book.

You can also work on the sight words in the book. You can talk about the sight words or do anything with the sight words before reading the book.

Other Pencil Number Printables to Use with The Easy Reader Book
Another way to use these is to match the number and use them with a number color and trace page. This allows them to count the two items to see they match. But also to write or trace the number digit and number word. I have a fun pencil number color and trace that just matches perfectly with the book.
But if you want a different activity, you could match it up to a number find. You can read the book page and then do the matching pencil number find. There are so many fun number activities you can do.
