    WHY USE DECODABLES?
    Recent brain research gathered
    from a variety of fields (psychology,
    special education, etc.) is coming
    together to show us exactly what
    needs to happen in order for
    students to become truly proficient
    at reading. This convergence of
    research and ideas is being termed
    the science of reading. The
    science of reading calls for
    systematic and explicit instruction
    of the seven building blocks of literacy: oral language, phonemic
    awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and
    writing. When teaching phonics, specifically, students need A LOT of
    targeted and correct practice for a phonics skill to be internalized.
    Decodable readers have mostly decodable words (words that are
    easily segmented, blended, and “follow the rules”), a few mostly
    familiar sight words, and an occasional rule-breaker/vocabulary
    word that helps with plot and interest. After learning a phonics skill
    students can
    immediately apply it
    to a text and are
    therefore much more
    likely to internalize the
    skill and apply it in
    their future reading.
    I have done my very
    best to make these
    decodable readers
    targeted, quality,
    and of interest to
    little readers. I hope
    you just love them!
    Happy Teaching!
