This resource was created to help students learn how to decode words and practice the phonics skills you are teaching in your classroom! Each one-page mini book focuses on a specific phonics skill. Each book consists of a word list, a list of sentences, and a short passage or story. Simply print, fold, and start reading! Students will read the words, read the sentences, and read the story in each book.

What grade level is this resource designed for?

As reading teachers, we often have readers of many levels that will enter our classrooms each year. While a kindergarten teacher may primarily be focusing on short vowels, they may have kindergarten readers who are ready to decode sneaky e words during the second half of the year. First and second grade teachers will find this bundle extremely valuable due to the wide range of phonics skills and patterns that are included for below, on-grade level, and above grade level readers. By having mini books for such a wide range of phonics skills, you will be able to differentiate and cater to each readers' individual and small group needs!

Great for Take-Home Practice Books!

These books make excellent little books to send home with students and families. Students can practice their decoding and fluency skills with the mini-books at home, highlight and underline patterns right on each page, and keep a collection and library at home of all the phonics skills they've learned! 

How should I prep these mini books?

Simply print and fold! I teach my students how to fold their own mini books at the beginning of the school year. You can print these booklets on colored paper OR on white paper so that students can color, circle, or highlight the phonics pattern before or as they read! There are SO many ways to use these booklets!

These mini books provide practice, reteaching, review, and additional exposure to the phonics pattern you are working on. These mini books will help you as you provide systematic and explicit decoding practice during your school year, which aligns to the science of reading research! I hope you enjoy this phonics resource!
