Do your students get bored by phonics drills? Do you have beginning readers who sound out words well, but do not understand what they read? Phonics & Early Literacy With Themed Story Builders will connect the dots between mechanical decoding and creating a love for books and reading! 39 pages of the most complete literacy program curriculum for Kindergarten through 1st and 2nd grade. The program is rooted in the Science of Reading offers a unique method for teaching phonics skills through a new way of creating stories. This program also provides the student opportunities to develop vocabulary, syntax and comprehension while expressing his/her own creativity and imagination. Constrained Narrative Architecture (CNA) Method not only moves students beyond rote memorization when learning how to decode word lists, but also teaches students how to build themed stories using the newly-acquired phonics skills. Once students have created a complete themed story, they will have an understanding of the phonics rules used in the story, plus vocabulary, syntax and comprehension. What You're Getting with This Resource Without Preparation That Has An Immediate Impact on Teaching!? PHASE ONE: Theoretical Foundations & Core Content for the Teacher- This guide provides an educator with an understanding of the neuroscience behind our methodology. The educator will learn the "why" of Orthographic Mapping, Cognitive Load Theory, Narrative Scaffolding, and other elements to become a more experienced and knowledgeable teacher. PHASE TWO: Student Workbook- The student workbook consists of 10 fun thematic worksheets and each worksheet will provide the student with a story background that aligns to the specific sequential skill provided on the worksheet, and offers the student an adventure in phonics. PHASE THREE: Teacher Resource Package- The teacher resource package consists of pedagogical diagrams, full comprehensive answer key, and a teacher implementation guide with pacing suggestions. The 10 Themed Adventure Worksheets Cover the Following Skills in a Sequence: 1. The Alpine Forest (Short Vowels & CVC Words) 2. Deep Sea Discovery (Consonant Digraphs; sh, ch, th, wh) 3. The Clockwork City (Initial Consonant Blends: L, R, S) 4. Dino-Valley Dig (CVCe Words- “Magic e”) 5. Starlight Space Station (Long Vowel Teams- ai, ee, ea, oa, ue) 6. The Whispering Willow Farm (R-Controlled Vowels- ar, er, ir, or, ur) 7. The Weather Wizards (Diphthongs; ou, ow, oi, oy) 8. The Great Mountain Train (Hard/Soft 'c'/ 'g') 9. The Midnight Toy Shop (Syllable Segmentation) 10. The Enchanted Castle (Cumulative Review/Creative Story Building) This is ideal for large group instruction, small group intervention, structured literacy centers, or an effective homeschool phonics program. It will stop the continual slaughter of expected reading enjoyment and create skilled independent readers now! Search for: phonics programs, science of reading, early literacy, kindergarten reading programs, first grade phonics programs, second grade literacy programs, decodable activities, reading intervention programs, story building worksheets, fill-in-the-blank worksheets, structured literacy center materials, homeschool phonics programs, constant vowel, constant e, constant combination sounds, and constant blends of vowel sounds. The reason why parents and schools are happy is because the curriculum is based on scientific principles, known as the "Science of Reading." This means that the curriculum teaches children to read the right way and progresses from the recognition of the individual sounds to being able to read smoothly and understand what they are reading. Phonics becomes fun instead of boring since this curriculum substitutes the traditional rote phonics drills with engaging themed activities. Children become so involved in creating an imaginative story with dinosaurs or by creating a real-life story about a space station that they do not even realize they are really learning important phonics skills. True comprehension of what to read is developed because this resource requires students to select the word that completes a sentence so that it will make sense. This develops the child’s ability to read for meaning as opposed to simply reading out loud. This resource is designed to be easily differentiated as the teacher’s guide contains suggestions for helping struggling readers (such as those with dyslexia) and those working at an advanced level, making it suitable for all students in a diverse classroom or homeschool environment. This resource is comprehensive and ready to be implemented right away, as it includes not only the worksheets that are used in the program, but also has a complete teacher’s guide, student activities to use with the worksheets, and an answer key. Everything you need! Target Audience Review: According to the explicit scope and sequencing outlined on pages 7 & 8 that outline students working through CVC words all the way to multisyllabic words, the following summarizes how this PDF has been developed for: - Primary Target Students: Kindergarten (approx. age 5) - 1st Grade (approx. age 6) and 2nd grade (approx. age 7). - Primary Buyers: K-2 Classroom Teachers, Home School Parents, Literacy Specialists, Reading Interventionists and Tutors. Phase 1 of the theoretical component of the PDF is especially beneficial to these users as it will allow them to show the product's educational merit by demonstrating that the research supports the Science of Reading.

Guided Reading Level H - Who Cooks for the Community

This Guided Reading Book - Who Cooks for the Community (Level H) includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: Who Cooks for the Community?
