Introduction

Stories are provided at a variety of levels ranging fromsimple, predictable text for emerging readers to morecomplex text. All of the stories include a Story Dictionaryand illustrations to support the text.

Reproduce the stories and prepare story booklets forindividual students. There are many possible ways toshare the stories:

• read the stories together• have small groups of students read the stories• have partners read a story together, or• have individuals read the stories independently

Use the skill pages following the stories• to assess students’ comprehension• to teach and practice decoding skills• to reinforce phonics instruction, and• to provide opportunities for students to write new words and to use new sentence structures

Before giving a new independent reading story to a student or a group of students, take time todevelop a context of experiences that will help your readers to succeed.

1. Read the title and help your students to connect it to their experiences. For example:“The title of this story is At the Amusement Park. Have you ever been to an amusementpark? What did you see there? What did you do?”

2. Preview the story with the readers.• Look first at the words presented in the Story Dictionary.

“Who can use the Story Dictionary to read the new words from the story?”• Then page through the story together. Have the readers look at the illustrations and predict

what they think is happening on the pages. Listen closely to the vocabulary used. Suggestwords and phrases that are used in the story vocabulary that might be unfamiliar to thereaders. (See page 3 for a list of words and phrases for each story in this book.)“If you went to an amusement park, what would you see?”“Yes, you would see rides like roller coasters, ticket windows, crowds, and loudspeakers.”

• You may want to write the words as you talk about them, or ask the readers to locate thewords on a specific page.“Can you find the words ‘dark tunnels’ on this page?”
