  • (R209) CCVC Words in Sentences: Is Stan a Brat?

    $4.99 including GST

    Featuring 82 short sentences, this workout is loaded with CCVC words that use the basic code (with very few digraphs, split digraphs or diphthongs).

    We wrote these sentences to help practice blending and segmenting words with four letter-sounds. They can be used for:

    * decoding practice; or

    * word or sentence level written dictation (encoding) practice.

    While illustrated, we have designed the sentences to discourage guessing from context or pictures, and to instead promote the phonological awareness skills most correlated with reading outcomes, namely letter-sound links, blending and segmenting skills.

    Formatted in PDF (for print) and for Google Slides (for smart boards, iPads, and other devices, and to access the animations).

  • Stan has three cats: Early reading workout CVC CCVC CVCC

    (R215) Early Reading Workout – Stan has three cats: Dom, Don and Dan (CVC, CVCC, CCVC)

    $4.99 including GST

    This 10-page workout is designed to show students the importance of decoding left to right, all the way through words, and to not guess. Featuring three cats with similar – but different – names, features, and interests, this exercise is designed to help catch and eliminate barriers to fluent decoding.

    To make the exercise slightly more challenging, we have loaded the passages with consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC), consonant-consonant-vowel-consonant (CCVC) and consonant-vowel-consonant-consonant (CVCC) words; as well as high-frequency bound morphemes <-er> and <-est>, to help support children to read common comparative and superlative adjectives.
