Description

These Science of Reading decodable texts compliments Fundations ® and provide students the opportunity to practice the phonics skills they are learning in real time in their Fundations lessons.

Why Are Decodable Books So Important for Beginning Readers?
Some children seem to “magically” learn to read; they just “get it”. But many children require a systematic, multi-modal approach to reading that allows them to learn step-by-step. And as children learn to read, decodable books are an important part of their learning.
When a child is expected to read books that are not decodable, he often becomes frustrated and starts guessing at words. He can develop poor reading strategies such as relying on picture clues. There needs to be a direct connection between the phonics skills he has learned and the actual text he is expected to read.
In contrast, when a child reads a fully decodable book, she can use her knowledge of phonics skills to decode unfamiliar words. Because the child can figure out almost every word in the book, she feels successful, and she builds fluency which leads to the ultimate goal of comprehension.
What Are Decodable Books?
Decodable books are books that contain only the spelling/sound patterns of English that the student has already learned.
For example, an early emergent reader who has learned the short vowel sounds could decode simple words like cat, red, and wig, but would not be able to decode words like rain and pout.
Truly decodable books are 95% decodable so the student is able to read almost every word.
Look at what TEACHERS have to say about these decodables!
"It is so great to have decodable readers that align with the phonics curriculum we use at my school! Thank you for creating stories so students can practice the specific skills we have learned in phonics. It is nice to have two versions of each story to differentiate instruction in small groups."
"So helpful to practice skills we are learning in our Fundations unit. Children are applying skills to decode these texts without guessing as the texts are controlled and perfectly aligned. Great product.""
I am so grateful for this product! Our school's ELA curriculum is incredibly advanced for our 1st graders and although we use Fundations, we do not have the decodables that go with the program. The decodable readers that you have created are perfectly aligned with each unit, including their weekly Trick Words. I feel like I have found a treasure, especially with so many struggling readers this year. We are reading them together in class and I'm also sending them home for nightly practice with their parents. It was also extremely easy to print (with your directions) and put together. I'm having students "mark" their digraphs as taught during this unit. Students are also coloring their booklets whenever there is free time. FUN!! Again, I am so grateful for these books. Thank you! (And as I read your background, I thought to myself, of course this had to be created by an actual 1st grade teacher. :) Thank you again."
"I continue to buy and use every Level 1 unit. This is the piece that Fundations is missing. My students love the practice work as it follows the same routines. This allows them to be independent as I work with small groups using the readers. We love to read the class book versions to warm up for our Fundations daily lessons. Love! And, my students are ALL reading better than ever before."
Phonetic or letter/sound patterns not yet taught infrequently appear in the stories and are known as “Story Words”.
FAQ: Will you be selling just the books without the other resources?
While I feel the "other" resources provide value and power to these books, I will be selling just the books. However, your greatest value will be purchasing the bundle. These stories are months of planning, writing, editing, and creating. I will be listing each units "books" soon.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
