Sample Reading Lessons

[/vc_column]

We invite you to review several actual digital reading lessons organized by Reading Skills.  The student workbooks are named for the dominant reading skill taught in each book as follows:

Book 1, Letter Names and Sounds:  The starting point for ESL and EL students if they have not attended a kindergarten class taught in English.

Book 2, Long Vowels:  This course focuses on reading words, phrases, and sentences containing long vowel words. Examples are kite, cute, paint, cone, bike, and cake.

Book 3, Short Vowels: This course focuses on reading words, phrases, and sentences containing short vowel words. Examples are kit, cut, can, bit, mat, top, and sun.

Book 4, Long and Short Vowels: This course focuses on reading words, phrases, and sentences with a mixture of both long and short vowel words in the phrase or sentence.

Book 5, Digraphs and Blends: Digraphs are two consonant letters that create a new sound.  Examples are sheep, fish, chick, phone, and thorn, wheel, and queen.  Blends are two consonants that create a blend of their respective sounds.  Examples are blanket, clock, prize, scale, skate, smile, and flag.

Reading Stories About the World Around Me!

Book 6, Two-Syllable Words: There are several classifications of two-syllable words, this course teaches students how to identify the root of the word and to apply rules to be able to read it.  Examples are summer, coffee, baseball,  athlete, kitchen, and panther.

Book 7, Intro to Vowel Teams:  This course focuses on specific vowel teams and four essential syllable strategies to prepare students to read more complex words. The lessons include a “Cloze Reading” which is a skill-based activity to challenge students to complete a passage with words intentionally omitted. This instructional strategy teaches students to use context clues to complete the passage and allows teachers to assess student’s comprehension skills and understanding of new vocabulary words.

Book 8, Expanded Vowel Teams: In this course, students will gain the necessary phonological awareness to analyze and decode multisyllabic words with vowel teams as well as to read those words in context. The objective is for students to expand their fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension skills to become independent readers.
