What educators are saying
Description
These Science of Reading-Aligned Alphabet Decodable Readers are just what you need to help your early learners on the journey to unlocking the reading code! SOR-aligned ABC Decodable Readers are the answer for your Preschool, Pre-K, or Kindergarten classroom!
Not sure where to start your kindergarten students on their SOR journey, especially when they aren’t yet ready to decode words?
Not only will your students learn letter names and the sounds they spell (letter-sound correspondence), but they will also learn fluent handwriting for both capital and lowercase letters using the included verbal pathway.
They will also have the opportunity to learn vocabulary, practice concepts about print (CAP) and learn how books work, and start learning about beginning sounds! That’s what we call a powerhouse resource!
You’ll notice that this reader does not include words - that’s what makes it truly decodable for students! It does include the letter, the sound it spells (scaffolded by mouth clipart for that phoneme), and a rebus image of the beginning sound image on that page.
Students will read the pages like this: “M, m, /m/, mouse.” The sign language for each letter is included on each of these pages, giving students an action to help internalize the information.
And that’s not all…These SOR-Aligned Alphabet Decodable Books align with our Phonics Instructional Slides and flow directly into the CVC-Short Vowel Decodable Readers.
To top it all off, we’ve thrown in an exclusive set of “Read It Like A…” Center Activity Sticks. Simply print, fold, and glue these onto a popsicle stick for an easy, fun center in which students practice fluency and content all while having a blast. You won’t be able to hold back a grin when you hear their giggles!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“My students’ confidence in reading blossomed with these alphabet readers. Many of them were very worried about learning to read and did not think of themselves as readers until I started using these books. Thank you!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I love these alphabet decodable readers! My students were able to learn so much about how books work from the idea that print carries a message and words on the page go left to right, top to bottom, to how the pages are turned and where the cover of the book is. These skills are essential and they’re also reinforcing their newly-learned letter-sound correspondence while they’re starting to see themselves as readers!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“These alphabet decodable books were so helpful for my students to work on both beginning sounds and vocabulary. The images were such helpful support for my English Language Learners as they also practiced letter-sound correspondence and naming letters in their second language. I love how the last page has new vocabulary and most of the pages have sign language - my students think it is amazing to be learning TWO new languages at once!”
NOTE: This set is not included in the Decodable Readers Bundle.
