Long Vowels Silent E Nonsense Word Fluency Practice | Decodable Passages

These no prep CVCe decodable readers and decoding drills are perfect for children who are just learning to read magic e words or those students who are struggling to decode CVCe words quickly and automatically. Each decodable sheet includes decodable words, nonsense words, sentences, and a short story. These phonics activities are designed to move students from slowly blending words to a level where decoding is habitual and automatic.

Why did I create these decodable sheets?

I created these activities for the first grade students in my own classroom. After introducing a new phonics pattern my students need practice reading and applying the skills that they have just learned. I love using these no prep sheets as a warmup in guided reading

groups.
