Introduction
T his book features 50 engaging stories that provide structured practice for
learning 55 key phonograms. Experts agree that early instruction with word
families helps children develop reading fluency. When children learn to recognize
the letter (or series of letters) that stands for a particular sound or series of sounds,
they can apply this knowledge to decode new words quickly and efficiently. The
story pages in this book provide the repeated practice children need to master
these skills, helping them strengthen their knowledge of word parts, deepen their
What the bank of decoding strategies, and become stronger readers.

Teaching With the Stories

Y ou can use the stories in any order that best supports your goals for whole-
class, small-group, and individual instruction. Model for children how to
complete a page before having them do so on their own.
1. Display a story page so all children can see it (for example, by using an Teaching
overhead). Tip
2. Read the directions aloud, and then direct children’s attention to the Word

might point out that you know names begin with a capital letter. That leads
you to the word Jet in the Word Bank. Write in the word, and continue.
(As another strategy, you might show children how to lightly draw a line
through each word in the Word Bank as they use it.)
5. When you have filled in all of the blanks, read the story, modeling
characteristics of fluency, such as using appropriate expression and pausing
at punctuation.
6. Complete the Word Search, showing children how to look across, down, and
diagonally—but not backward—for the words in the Word Bank. Place a
check next to each word as you find it. Once you find all of the words, read
them aloud.

Connections to the
Language Arts Standards
T he story pages and extension activities in this book are designed to support
you in meeting the following standards as outlined by Mid-continent
Research for Education and Learning (McREL), an organization that collects and
synthesizes national and state curriculum standards—and proposes what teachers
Teaching should provide for their students to become proficient in language arts, among

Classroom Management Tips

W hether you photocopy each story page at the time of use, or prepare class
sets of the stories in advance, a simple storage system will make it easy to
build a collection that you can keep on hand for later use or repeated practice.
Place each set of stories in a file folder. Tape or glue a sample page to the
front for reference, or label the tab with the target phonogram(s) and title.
To encourage self-checking, create an answer key, filling in the words to each
story and circling the words in the word search. Attach to the back of the
envelope or file folder. Or, place answer keys in a binder. (For a complete set
of answers, see pages 10–14.)

Activities to Use With Any Story
The activities here extend what students learn with the story pages. You’ll find
activities that reinforce rhyming skills, before and after reading
Word Wall Builders

Extend learning by creating word walls or charts based on target words from the
stories.
1. Copy target words from a story on chart paper or a whiteboard.
2. Read the words with children and invite them to suggest other words that
rhyme. Record their ideas on the chart paper.
3. Circle the words from the story, and then ask children what other words you
should circle. Explain that all of the words you circle need to belong to the
same word family.
4. Circle words with the same phonogram, and discuss with children any words
that don’t belong. For example, if you are focusing on the phonogram -ide
and a child suggests the word cried, take a moment to notice that the word
cried rhymes with the -ide words, but has a different spelling pattern.
5. Copy all of the words with the same phonogram on large index cards or
sheets of paper. Create pictures to go with words from the story (or enlarge
the illustration from the story page) to provide a visual reminder. Display
pictures and words as a word wall. Use removable adhesive to create a
portable word wall that children can take to their desk and then return to the
wall when finished.
Pocket Chart Practice

The short stories in this book lend themselves well to pocket chart activities.
Suggestions for creating these activities follow.
Who Has the Word? Write each line of a story on a sentence strip, leaving spaces
for the target words as indicated. Cut sentence strips to fit the spaces and write a
target word on each. Hand out the word cards to different children. In the pocket
chart, place sentence strips in order. Read aloud the story. When you come to a
missing word ask, “Who has the word that goes here?” Have that child place the
word in the correct space. Continue in this way to complete the story, and then
read it aloud together.

Scrambled Stories: Write each sentence of a story on a sentence strip, filling in
any missing words. Mix up the strips and place them in a pocket chart. Invite
children to help you sequence the sentences to unscramble the story. Number
the backs of the sentence strips so children can work independently or in pairs
to place the sentences in order, and then check their work. As a variation, cut
apart sentences into individual words. Challenge children to arrange the words
in order.

Encouraging Comprehension
use them to
complete the story. The stories in this book are short, but provide many opportunities to practice
comprehension strategies. After children complete a story, revisit it together. Ask
questions to help children explore their understanding of the story. For example,
after reading “Slide Down!” (page 42), ask:
Who is this story about? (Penny and Pilar)
What do they like to do together? (ride their bikes, play hide-and-seek,
play on the slide)
What problem are they having? (they can’t fit on the slide together)
How do you think they’ll solve this problem? (take turns)
Follow up by inviting children to retell the story in their own words.

Fluency Practice
The brevity of the stories makes them just right for fluency practice.
1. Copy a story on chart paper. Have children help you fill in the missing words.
2. Read the story aloud, modeling good reading behaviors for pacing,
expression, punctuation, and inflection. For example, use stories with more
than one character (and dialogue) to model how to use a different voice for
each character. Model how question marks and exclamation points give you
clues about expression.
3. Read the story together, using an echo reading approach. You read one line,
and children repeat it, echoing your pacing, phrasing, and intonation.
4. Read the story as a group, again encouraging children to follow along with
pacing, phrasing, and intonation.
Story Switcheroo
Have some fun with the stories, using the characters, settings, and events to
create new stories.
1. Write characters’ names on slips of paper. Place them in a bag and label it
“Characters.” Do the same with story settings (such as “the kitchen”), events
(such as “raking leaves”), and “problems” (such as “having a cold”).
2. Let children take turns choosing a slip from each bag. Use the elements to tell
a new story. Write it on chart paper and let children illustrate to create a new
set of stories to read.
