Our decodables are skillfully crafted so that kids from diverse backgrounds can see themselves reflected in the first stories they read. Every story is highly decodable and we personalize the program to fit each child's reading needs.
Built for family engagement, Just Right Decodables give families tools to be partners in their child’s literacy. Each book includes phonics tips and a video phonics lesson to help guide parents and readers.
Our kindergarten and early 1st grade texts are all at least 80% or more decodable. Our mid-1st grade texts and onward are approximately 80% decodable as they contain new and exciting vocabulary words for students to explore!
A. Decodable words: Words that only include sound-spelling relationships that a child has already learned. Every story is carefully crafted around children’s knowledge about blending sounds together.
B. High-Frequency-Words: Specific words children have learned that are highly frequent in texts (e.g. like, here, and said).
