   • 32 colorful and engaging decodable books for emergent and early readers. Each 8-page book builds upon the previous book to include all skills in Level 1 of the Orton Gillingham approach. **See all skills included below.

Science of Reading: Combining language and decoding for reading comprehension!

Each of the 32 stories includes reading comprehension questions to keep your students engaged and on track with comprehension. These include Common Core standards like illustrating, details, characters, setting, inference, and more!

There is little to NO PREP. NO CUTTING REQUIRED! Just print the books double-sided (my printer says “Print on both sides, Flip sheets on short edge), fold, and your student is ready to read. You can print the decodable books in color or black and white. If you want to ensure the pages stay together, you can staple the center.
