Storybooks carefully follow the scope and sequence of the Recipe for Reading curriculum, but they can also be used with any phonics or core program as additional decodable text.
These vocabulary controlled selections enable students to apply their phonics skills in context. The stories, which increase in difficulty as the lessons progress, help students practice target words and review sounds and sight words. The stories enable emergent and struggling reader to practice skills while they read motivating, engaging stories.
