Decodable Books: Removing the Guesswork to Make Strong Readers
Educators will be able to help students achieve phonics mastery, fluency, accuracy and even confidence by identifying and utilizing quality decodable books. Not all books are created equal, but with a trained eye, we can reorganize our classroom libraries and use our books to support and advance our students.
