Description
These decoding drills are perfect for children who are just beginning to read cvc words or those students who are struggling to decode quickly. Each Fast Read focuses on a short vowel sound and is introduced in a sequence that builds confidence. Students begin by reading short vowel word families. These word families allow students to decode quickly by only having to manipulate the first letter. After reading the word families, students must read a mix up of words with the same vowel sound. The last Fast Read in this bundle includes a combination of all short vowel sounds! These decoding drills work to move students from slowly blending cvc words to a level where decoding is habitual and automatic.
How can I use these drills in my classroom?
•Use them with individual students.
•Use them as a warm up in guided reading groups.
•Use them during distance learning – You can assign the Google Slides in your Google Classroom or use in Seesaw. If you use Seesaw your students can practice and then record themselves. (I’m REALLY excited about this feature! My students use Google Classroom, so I will be providing the Seesaw link in our Google Classroom!)

Why did I create these Fast Reads?
I created these cards for a few specific first grade students in my own classroom. These students know their letters and sounds but struggle with reading cvc words quickly and automatically. Sometimes these students also confuse their short vowel sounds. I created this digital version because I’M TEACHING VIRTUALLY, and I needed a systematic way for my students to practice and apply new phonics patterns while improving their fluency. I will be using Seesaw because I need a way to HEAR THEM READ!
The Research
I created these Fast Reads to improve reading fluency. According the the National Reading Panel, a few things are critical of good reading instruction.
•Explicit instruction in phonemic awareness
•Systematic phonics instruction
•Methods to improve fluency
