Description
Print and go with The Cat, a black and white decodable book that pairs short vowel CVC words with the high-frequency sight word the. Kindergarten and first grade students read simple, repetitive sentences such as The cat ran, The cat sat on the mat, and The cat had a nap, building blending, decoding, and early reading fluency. Before reading, students review the CVC words cat, mat, ran, fun, nap, and had. A sight word practice page guides learners to trace the, build it by sound with sound boxes, and write it independently to support orthographic mapping. This black and white, printer-friendly version saves ink and lets children color the illustrations as they read, making it a great low-prep choice for classroom copies and take-home book bags. Use this Science of Reading aligned phonics mini book in guided reading groups, small group intervention, literacy centers, RTI, morning work, homework, or homeschool reading lessons.
