Decodable stories offer children the opportunity to repeat already taught phonic knowledge. Connected text that contains the alphabet code knowledge previously taught breeds success and encourages an “I can do this” attitude.
 
Each story comes with a set of questions to prompt discussion.
The stories are for decoding practice. The stories don’t contain illustrations. This is to encourage discussion between the child and the reading partner. A game-changer for eyes on print. The student can add pictures after the first read, which prompts another read and discussion. Talking about the text builds vocabulary and meaning.
