More About This Resource
These decodable passages with comprehension questions are the perfect resource for beginning readers. Each passage is a phonics-based controlled text that contains target phonics skill words, previously taught phonics skill words and irregular high frequency words. The science of reading shows us that the connection between what our students learn in phonics and what they read is imperative for building a strong foundation in early reading.
⭐️ ⭐️ SAVE BIG ON THE BUNDLE: DECODABLE PASSAGES BUNDLE ⭐️ ⭐️

Explicit lesson plans for each passage are provided for the teacher with activities for before, during and after reading to strengthen phonics skills.

It is so difficult to find a resource that works with decodable passages with words that have been explicitly taught. It is even more difficult to find one that has comprehension included! This resource has it all!

I LOVE these! I use them for my struggling second graders in small group and my own daughter at home. I lesson plan page that comes with each passage identifies heart words and has everything you need to teach these. No prep work except copying. Huge time saver. Thank you!

Initially I thought I wouldn’t be using these passages until next year since we had already taught blends this year. However, after using the screener I found these would be perfect for intervention groups!
