Basic Guidelines:
1. The first reading of the decodable text should be guided by the teacher to ensure accurate reading of the text
2. Students should finger-point and read aloud while reading decodable text
3. All errors are corrected using immediate error correction routine
4. Students are supported in developing fluent reading of the text
Immediate!Error!Correction!Routine!!
1.!!Intervene when an error is heard – Correct even the little words such as ‘a’ and ‘the’ to develop accurate reading skills
2. Provide Error Correction Support:
To give the student the word, say: “My turn, that word is….”
What word?
“Go back and read again.”
targeted phonics skill. Select 5-7 words and write them while students blend/read the words.
2. Write the high frequency words on index cards. Hold up each card, tell them the word and have students
repeat the word. Then, mix up the cards and have students chorally read the words.
3. Next, have students chorally read each line of the word bank. Repeat if needed to build automaticity.
On-Level or Above Level: Have all students chorally reread the text with a partner. Reader 1 begins reading
alternating sentences/pages with Reader 2. On the third read, have Reader 2 start the reading.
Second/Third Read
Below Level:
For the second read, have the students echo read the text. The teacher will read a sentence with good
expression and intonation and students will echo what the teacher has read. Make sure students are tracking
what they are reading with their finger.
For the third read, have each student individually whisper read 3-5 lines of the text at a time. When they finish
reading the assigned lines, have them place their finger where they stopped. When all students have finished
reading, have them choral read the last lines read. Continue in this manner until the text is finished.
Comprehension
Ask comprehension questions and have student find the answer or information that supports their answer in the
text.
Have students work in partners to do a fluency check. Reader 1 will start at the beginning of the text and read for
Fluency
Check
60 seconds. While Reader 1 reads, Reader 2 keeps track of any errors Reader 1 makes and helps to keep track
of how far Reader 1 got in 60 seconds. Record their rate and errors on a fluency graph. Switch roles.

It was spring and the sun was out. Robin felt splendid. 11
She strutted on the grass and sprinted in the wind. 21
Robin looked for scraps of string. She looked for sprigs 31
of grass because she wanted to make a nest. Robin 41
jumped and landed on a strip of grass by a pond. 52
Robin got very stressed. “I will sink,” she said as she 121
splashed. “I cannot swim, I will sink and the fish will 132
nip me.” Just then a big red strap landed by her. 143
Robin swam to the strap. A kid held the end of the 155
strap. Robin grabbed the strap. The kid yanked and 164
yanked and pulled her to shore. 170

Brent and I were on a quest for a ramp to make a 13
bike jump. We did not want it to cost a lot, so we 26
went to the dump out west. There was damp mist 36
over the dump. 39
“We must not get lost,” said Brent. “I do not want 50
this task to last, not in this smell. It would be best to 63
have a gas mask. 67
We tramped over the dump, stomped past limp, 75
lumpy stuff and a busted pump, and a lot of rusted 86
cans. 87
“See this mast?” I said. “It would make a grand 97
ramp.” “That mast is bent,” said Brent. “I bet it would 108
not last.” 110
“See this bus bumper?” I asked. “Yes, but it is just a 122
hunk of junk,” said Brent. I said, “We must get a ramp 134
fast. The sun is setting and it will be dusk.” 144
Just then there was a gust of wind. The blast 154
dumped a stump onto Brent. “Help!” yelped Brent. 162

Barb Carson loved her car. It was a large, dark blue car. 12
It was a work of art and it was magic. 22
People stared at Barb’s dark blue car. Dogs would bark 32
when Barb honked her horn at them. 39
Barb loved her charming car. She wanted to hire an 49
army to guard it. Barb did not want anyone to harm 60
her car. 62
In March, Barb wanted to take her car on a long drive. 74
She wanted the air to blow through her hair. She wanted 85
to go as far as a distant star. 93
“My car can go as fast and as far as a hare can run,” 107
thought Barb. “I will start my trip in the morning.” 117
She drove her car past the garden. She drove it past the 129
big barn on the farm. Then she darted it past the food 141
mart. 142
She drove her car under the arch in the park. She drove 154
it to the marsh. She drove her sharp car to a party. She 167
drove it over large ice caps. 173
She drove her magic car into space. She drove it past 184
Mars. She drove it through the stars. When Barb reached 194
the sea, she parked her car on a large barge. She did not 207
want the sharks to get her magic car. So she rode an ark 220
over the sea. 223
