  • "Readers learn all about the science of earthquakes and review words with prefixes -dis, un, in, pre, over, mis, and re"--Provided by publisher.
  • Using decodable books in the earlier stages of literacy instruction ensures that a child has the skills to read without guessing. They are especially important for students with dyslexia (or any struggling reader) because they provide reading practice using the knowledge of letter-sounds that are taught explicitly in a scaffolded approach. Reading decodable books help children build fluency and gain confidence as they become proficient with word-level reading.
