**As of October 17, 2022, Digital Google Slides of ALL passages have been added!**
For every passage, you will find:
- The targeted word families/vowel sounds listed in the left hand corner so it’s easy for you and your students to reference.
- Crayons and target skills above the passage so that your students can color code the CVC words in the passage before reading. The crayons are white so that YOU (or your students) can choose which color to use. I recommend that students decode the words in isolation as they highlight/color the words before reading them in context. This can also be used to frontload vocabulary for ELL/ESL students.
- 6-10 sentences per passage so that your students can successfully read a story without feeling overwhelmed.
- The passages use mostly CVC words and sight words so that your students can successfully decode without confusion!
- Three fluency-building smiley faces at the bottom – Students mark or color a smiley face each time they read.
- Text-based comprehension questions with multiple choice answers so that you can assess whether or not your students are comprehending what they read
