Intermediate Decodable Passages Set 1

Teaching phonics in isolation is not effective. Skill-based, decodable passages connect encoding and decoding (spelling and reading). Students will be able to see the phonetic patterns they are learning in high interest, authentic texts. By incorporating fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension skills into these weekly passages, teachers can meet multiple objectives and standards at once.

The problem we constantly ran in to is the decodables are often babyish and primary. These passages were written just for BIG kids. 3rd-7th graders find these fiction and non-fiction stories engaging and don't feel embarrassed reading them. Each passage comes in two levels to meet the needs of your diverse readers!

Please note, decodability depends on the patterns that have been taught! These passages focus on multisyllabic words and follow the Reading Rev Scope and Sequence. Each passage comes with a teacher's guide that provides a list of words that most 3rd-4th grade students have orthographically mapped (know by sight). The bolded vocabulary words encourages direct instruction in decoding and meaning. Extension ideas and links offer even more to explore!

This first set covers the first 18 phonetic patterns of Reading Rev's Intermediate Phonics & Spelling Sequence. You can get a free sample at www.readingrev.com in the Free Resource Library.
